It is a really strong strike, but does have a odd coloring. Maybe chemically cleaned? Either it is cleaned, or his camera light setting is set wrong. Nice coin though! Quote
Michael-Roo Posted August 21, 2014 Author Posted August 21, 2014 I wonder what best offer would secure it? The 'buy it now' price is a bit rich.I'm not considering making an offer (just in case you thought I was!).As P says:Fancying? Yes!Affording? No!! Quote
copper123 Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Not a martin platt coin by any chance is it? Quote

bronze mad Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Why not put it up for 4.4 Million? worth a try Quote
Peckris Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Who's this MP bloke, then? PM Dave (azda) - he will set you straight! Otherwise, it's a 'love that dare not speak its name' for fear of being sued!! Quote
PWA 1967 Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Azda who is MP just thought i would wake you up ? Quote
Peckris Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Azda who is MP just thought i would wake you up ?He will politely tell you what the initials stand for, then he will PM you giving more information Quote

copper123 Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 M.P. feel the love people , feel the love Quote
azda Posted August 23, 2014 Posted August 23, 2014 Azda who is MP just thought i would wake you up ?Yes, well overgrader and cleaner of coins, one of ebays finest although even his coin prices have taken a massive dip, he used to have many friends help his auctions along in a very big way, but i feel some satisfaction now due to even his prices being crap.Justification, word of mouth or just the fact ebay has taken a huge dip in the coin sales area, who knows but even he's struggling now to get top end money. His latest (a reportedly UNC florin) description quoted Spink at £750 and he got just over £200, maybe buyers are also getting better at grading 1 Quote
