I've got the following, just in.

All of the GIIII shillings, the 1889 broken 'I' double florin, the 1925 shilling and the 1918 florin are virtually reserved, so basicially someone else has first call on them.

Crown 1933, NEF tiny mark on rim (from production) £300

Double Florin 1888, Inverted '1' for 2nd I in Victoria, AUNC, only wear is minimal slight rub from storage £400

Double Florin 1889, Inverted '1' for 2nd I in Victoria, Choice UNC, prooflike fields, best i've seen of this variety £550.

Florin 1879, EF 39 arcs (listed as 38 arcs in Spink somehow) £250.

Florin 1918 UNC, £90.

Shilling 1745, VF, non LIMA £120.

Shilling 1816, UNC £130.

Shilling 1817, Choice UNC beautiful £150.

Shilling 1819, GEF/AUNC £100.

Shilling 1820, odd minor mark prevents UNC £120.

Shilling 1824, GEF with purples and green natural toning £300.

Shilling 1825, 1st head, strong EF £250.

Shilling 1825, 2nd head, AUNC/GEF (only wear is to Lions nose), incredibly prooflike with shimmering mirrored fields £250.

Shilling 1834, AEF/GEF £200.

Shilling 1835, GVf/EF £140.

And as a taster, here's the obv of the 1819 sixpence.

I know some people have a problem with the AUNC grade, but I only ever use it for coins that clearly have seen no use but have a slight rub or loss of lustre due to storage. Anything with the slightest wear is GEF, or EF accordingly.

Am in invisible or something?

Great selection and very reasonably priced but the ones I want I can't afford right now :(

To be quite honest Chris, I just can't get past those awful scans, which somehow make any lustre disappear completely, and the tone look like ... well, horrible! Subconsciously I know full well that the coins will look 1000% better 'in hand', but somehow the pictures put me right off.

But maybe I'm not the right person to comment as I have precious little to spend on coins these days.

Not always, it depends on the coin. For some of the expensive ones I've also provided photographs, for other I left the scans as they were better! There's no easy way to get a volume of coins photographed accurately and listed on the website without it taking absolutely ages.

I have to admit I would rather be pleasantly surprised when a coin arrives than find I paid for a nice photo and feel disappointed with the coin

I get that quite a lot actually! People email (or leave feedback) saying the coin was better than expected. I have to kick myself because clearly it was too cheap!

The 1920 6d went a couple of hours ago (not to a forum member)!

The man's gone quiet over the Double florins, so consider them all for sale still.

That 1889 broken I is really really nice and the 1888 broken I is great but not perfect.
