It does look as if maybe I see wiping over Britannia's arm, but not totally certain. And Jerry's 100% correct. Even making a video and still shots for yourself at various angles and angles of flashlight can help.

Incredible! - can't wait to see the catalogue, though presumably online only as have been the last few SR auctions. Never seen a dreadnought for sale before .

I don't think the 1882 no H is the finest, and giving it a teaser estimate of 2-3K means SR don't either. I'm sure Gerald Jackson had a lustrous one back in Spink USA  2014 which went for $18K from memory, perhaps Noble's mint state specimen as mentioned by Peck in his 1967 BNS Addendum.

Uggh, I bid on that one and don 't know where it ended up but figured out the opposition was willing to go much higher and so dropped out at the end. I did end up with Gerald's 1869 that was a beauty....

I can view the catalogue lot by lot, but can't see where one downloads the two PDFs you refer to. Can you post a precise link for a numpty like me ?!

Martin, if you click on the link and bring up the PDF, there should be an icon somewhere on the top right like a downward arrow above above a "tray" - if you click on this it will download the PDF to a folder that you nominate.

I also am not seeing anything like a download option.

Thanks indeed, Richard - that works great (and for part two, just change I for II in the url  !!)

Thanks!

I don't see why you would bury such a collection inside a General Sale!

Lot 207, the last on the page, makes no sense as regards description and the two ( different) coins pictured.

The F69 estimate seems very low too!

It does seem odd, buried in a gen auction.

I emailed Steve Hill about that yesterday and it was just in time for them to correct before printing the catalogues.

Yes, and also Lot 210, not Freeman 38 but should read Fr39A

Yeah- it was next door to no.38, but 39A is the maisonette round the back.....
