Garrett Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Received the new Downies auction catalogue in the mail this morning.Probably not too much that will excite the crew here but there is a really nice looking 1746 Lima half-crown purportedly UNC with 'attractive golden toning'. Looks nice enough in the picture but the toning looks more like coffee stains.The example I bought in my youth is only VF, but I am not out to upgrade at the moment. Also, wouldn't mind having a side wager that this coin sails well above estimate (750 AUD + commission).I am guessing the online catalogue will be available soon.CheersGarrett. Quote

Peckris Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Up now:http://www.downies.com/aca/pages/catalogue.aspWell, that took its own sweet time to load! Interesting range of coins on offer. That halfcrown is everything you said Garrett - beautiful condition, not so beautiful toning. Not a lot else, you're right. Quote
Exbrit Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 One or two varieties that caught my eye, but otherwise not too much. Quote
jaggy Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 I didn't see much for me. So far, the London Coins auction is more interesting. Looking forward to the DNW catalogue. Quote
