argentum Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Hi, I am currently selling a holed 1847 threepence and was wondering what is a reasonable price to expect for this coin since it is quite rare?Thanks in advance.http://i1018.photobucket.com/albums/af304/triple-agent/1847threepenceREV_zpsfb021dea.jpg Quote
VickySilver Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Wow, count me impressed as the strike does not look like a worn Maundy. Look at areas on the numeral "3" and the border teeth - they look irregular like a currency strike. Do you have an obverse picture?WAG (wild a-- guess) - 75-100 pounds, lean to the later. A Vicky silver person like me might go higher retail....Hint, hint.... Quote

DaveG38 Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Mine is in about the same condition, but without the hole, but I only paid about £10.00 for it some 7 years ago. Prices and demand have sharpened considerably since then. Quote
VickySilver Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Ah,yes, the obverse is a bit haggard there. It is harder to tell if the obverse is Maundy but the reverse looks as best I can determin NOT to be and is on that basis impressive. The huge and vast bulk of 1846-48 specimens are Maundies that have been mucked about, some encapsulated. Quote
