I was following that one Ian . Sweet talking early bidder, off line ?, or maybe the seller was informed just exactly what it was he was selling. Terry Quote
jelida Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Sadly not me. But positive feedback has been given, stating a sold price of £11.50. Jerry Quote
1949threepence Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Oh, what a beaut. Did it really go for £11.50? That's the stuff that dreams are made of. Quote

No . the bidding was ended early by the seller. Terry Quote

PWA 1967 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Yes i am sure your right Jerry although annoying when your watching something and some Sweet talker sneaks in Not that i would have any chance........They would not understand me Quote

I had seen it, put the first bid on it and was watching it for a bid later. I had not realised you could end an auction with active bids. It was stopped 5 days early. There is always the possibility it was a honey trap .... Quote
IanB Posted May 9, 2017 Posted May 9, 2017 Just got this one today. Starting to push back my collection into the 19th Century 4 Quote
Nonmortuus Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 (edited) I do not post in here often but here are a couple of newbies from @PWA 1967 I am not happy with my pictures, they look far better in hand. Edited June 1, 2017 by Nonmortuus 6 Quote
PWA 1967 Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Definately a lot more lustre than the pictures show Paul as appear strange in colour Quote

That's an interesting atypical 1919. The obverse is very shallow (possibly due to a worn die, often seen on 1919H pennies) so giving a good rim on the reverse, and very well struck up head, face and chest of Britannia, which are more often weak than not. 2 Quote
ozjohn Posted June 3, 2017 Posted June 3, 2017 A penny I got the yesterday. Not normally my area of collecting but the price was ok. 2 Quote
IanB Posted June 10, 2017 Posted June 10, 2017 That must be one of those rare coins where both the obverse and reverse are inverted. Quote
