HistoricCoinage Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Something for everyone except you hammered boys. Good luck with the sales! I've put in a couple of bids as I haven't bought a milled coin in far too long.

Something for everyone except you hammered boys.My ebayI'll be taking a look too, Gary! I hope I don't win any, as I'll only be after bargains so, fingers crossed, someone else will win, and you'll get the money you're after!I don't think I'd ever consign a large number of coins to eBay auctions to generate cash, but good luck and fortune!

I know I should have submitted it first for spell checking but in the heat of the moment....
Generic Lad Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 I'd bit, but alas international shipping is a bit high, however, when looking at them, it looks like your 1941 twopence shows a picture of your 1938 twopence

It will be hot but it's the rainy season now so could go either way. A bit like the UK without the hot.
Peter Posted June 22, 2012 Posted June 22, 2012 Quality time...I love my girls but time with Mrs Peter is nice(and much cheaper)we have done a few decent holidays before kids and plan on a few more.We have taken them to Spain and France.I got as far as South Wales
Mongo Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 I forgot about these! missed the end of the auctions How did you do Gary? Good prices I hope!
Gary D Posted June 26, 2012 Author Posted June 26, 2012 I forgot about these! missed the end of the auctions How did you do Gary? Good prices I hope! Middling, some of the Maundy went well, assuming the American chap pays up. The 1908 penny went for £77, would have liked more, but for a pound hey. The 1915 Farthing only went for about £65, actually made a loss on that one, win some lose some.

Peter Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 I forgot about these! missed the end of the auctions Snap I would of had the 1915TT for that price. It goes to show maybe rare/expensive varieties should go into proper auctions.
declanwmagee Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 It goes to show maybe rare/expensive varieties should go into proper auctions.I expect you're right, Peter. I try and get my punters interested in esoteric varieties too, although not on the same level as Gary - stuff like 1953 Obv 2s, but they just can't get excited about them like I do.The 1923 florin mule I bought from you, Gary, will probably stay in my collection for ever and never go near a punter!
Peckris Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 I forgot about these! missed the end of the auctions Snap Me too. I think there was a football match on at the time, or something? I was mildly interested in the 1908 penny, but not for £77. The only coin I'm really annoyed to miss was the 1923 florin. Pity I missed that one. I hope it went to a good home. Damn England and their bloody football team!!
