Just wondering how those two 1902 Crowns did, plus i have a Proxy on a foreign coin if anyone is taking notes?

I was at London Coins today, Dave, but only made a note of penny prices. The biggy was the F-192A, 1922 rev 1927 which hit £3,800 + commission. Nice to meet Derek Allen for the first time!

I often wonder what yours would sell for, a frightening thought lol. I was mainly interested in those two 1902 Crowns too see what each went for, plus i had a Proxy on a Spanish coin ;)

Crown 1902, CGS 82, finest known - 550,- + BP

Crown 1902, CGS 78 - 200,- + BP

I bid on six lots and won five of them. Total cost about 10% under my maximum bids. Four coins come off my target 'buy' list. Another two coins were just 'nice to have'.

I got mine at 20% under my max, so fairly happy at that. Just waiting on the invoice now.

What did you get Dave?

Lol, i did'nt go for the Crown, it was nice (the cheaper one) and its one coin thats on my List to buy but in Matt proof, i went a little Spanish/Mexican, lets see of you can guess from that ;)

What did the '05 half crown go for? Or the 1864 penny?

The 1864 Crosslet 4 went for £3400, the 1905 i can't find, possibly pulled?

Posted

May not have been pulled. All of the coins and prices realized in this sale do not appear to have been posted yet.

Dave I reckon you went for a reale

Or a Geo III counterstamp

I noticed that the 1953 VIP proof set with the mule beaded/toothed penny went for £10K (£2.5K over estimate). Obviously you've got to add 17% buyer's premium to that as well. Has to be some kind of record.

I'm not too surprised. That penny's rarer than a 1933..

Correct Peter, 4 Reales to be precise, lot 645. in my nice NEW shiny Krause book in XF is $600 or £359.

As this is graded as a British EF it should technically be an American AU grade and therefor of higher value which Krause does'nt have and it will be sent to PCGS Paris along with the 5 Morgans that were recently purchased so i can maximise their FULL potential :)

I would not give that VIP set that much credit as far as penny rarity - just when might the next one (or two) show up? Not quite fair comparing to the Legendary 1933 date. I was a bit surprised that the 1922 penny outperformed the 1864 crosslet..
