Yes, I was watching that. Nice coin, but as I already had two I thought I wouldn’t be too greedy! Did you bid?

Yes, I was the underbidder, it would’ve been a very cheap coin for someone otherwise. I’d spent a bit already and equally had my eye on some other things, so couldn’t really chase it too far.

Felt extremely stupid to have missed this ex Shuttlewood, eglantine penny, after my alarm failed to go off (I’m between nightshifts at the moment).

Hammered at £260 - how cheap was that for such a great example!

On its way to Herefordshire, Stu, I thought it was underpriced too.

Glad it’s gone to a good home at least! Well done…I did wonder! ☺️

Is it or isn’t it? An online bid today in a bulk lot of 6 coins! Was a cheap enough buy to chance finding out. The only spanner in the works is what appears to be a no-mark reverse.

Can’t be a rose, it’s the wrong bust…

Thanks, Stu, fingers crossed! It would end up being a freebie if it comes good…would end up being a previously unknown pairing, too, with the no-mark reverse! Though this is what makes me feel it probably isn’t.
knowing my luck with trying to get hold of one of these, it will more likely end up being the crud from an old plug 😆

[Ukstu]

Hopefully not lol. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you 🤞

The reverse lis and lions sit distinctively high in their respective quarters…I did find this, which belongs to an anchor obverse. I guess we’ll have to wait and see!
