1910 Shilling

[Paulus]

I have a GEF for this date

I didn't imagine for a moment it could enhance your collection Peter! But if anyone is interested please PM me, else it will be eBayed along with my hammered coins over the next month or so

Well that's interesting. I bought this off him in December and was disappointed.

His photos didn't show the somewhat ugly toning as well as mine do, so consequently I sold it quickly at a small loss.

I have bought 3 off him that I have been pleased with though:

1836 halfcrown

1860 farthing

1902 threepence

So I guess you will have noticed by now that he adds buckets of saturation to his pictures!

As I said, I was pleased with my coins, but could see the 'artistic' enhancements were somewhat of an exaggeration of the actual colouration and tone. Fortunately, it hid no uglies in mine, and the 1902 penny (item number here somewhere) turned out to be a good replacement for the one I had.

I did email him in March to ask him about the photography, and he told me he has the photos done by someone else!
