1901 Vicky penny in 3D

[azda]

Not getting the rub of the green just now eh ?

Fingers crossed it turns up.

Yes unfortunately this seems to be the case 400, although the guy i bought the 1901 3D penny from seems to have 2 more of the same looking coin listed which i find rather strange. They can be seen here

[£400 for a Penny ?]

Hmm,

Well that would tend to lend weight to the theory that it's the way he photographs them (or lights them) that makes them seem different, although it has to be said, again, two more very nice strikes by the look of it.

unless he's using the same pictures to sell 1901 Pennies. Check out my new aquistion, arrived today and is in the coin aquisition of the week thread

Strange how both those pennies have the same marks and dings.

Just different lighting.

A stock photo or purposefully misleading?

I'm just a novice so I don't know what goes on.

Yes you are right Fubar, both coins seem the same, if you look at the REV to the right of the date there is a small light scratch and the same scratch appears in both auctions, so no idea what he's playing at, whether it's a mistake or whatever

Yes, you're right, good spot.

Well, I can't think of a scenario in which this has a happy ending, sadly....

Nope me either, although i did send an email and asked if there was some mistake in the listing because he's selling the same coin twice

Not only that, he describes one as a half penny.

Not demonstrating great trustworthiness...

Ok so 3D Vicky was'nt so 3D, how he did the picture i've no idea. On the upside it is a good coin, but i already had one, so another for the sons small collection
