He has a standard 1895 that is worth £100 maximum currently at £320 with twenty three bids . Good luck to him but cant understand people bidding so high on a MS 64 common coin. Teach me to read the description properly ,the low tide through me rather than 2 MM Quote

PWA 1967 Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) Yes and thats what i meant by should of read the description The picture of the slab didnt mention 2 MM. I assume as you have not posted before the coin was yours and i apologise. Edited December 19, 2016 by PWA 1967 Quote

PWA 1967 Posted December 20, 2016 Posted December 20, 2016 Its just daft ,although finding a really worn 1967 Penny is probably really hard As far as your coins Jon they are spot on so not for you to slab and sell them as RANG 1 Quote

That's because they have all been worn flat long ago. Rather worryingly, it appears to have been lovingly cared for during the past 70 or 80 years. I know a nice man with a large pot who would love to get his hands on that..................and he'd pay you for it. Quote

Either treatment will leave that "flat, matt like surface. It has been a nice coin, but must have had some issues. Quote
