Just came accross this sixpence of GeoIV and thought that maybe you would like it now that you collect GeoIV stuff :)

Firstly i wouldn't know where to start with the problems that coin has...

What a huge gauge (sp?), dint etc.

Scratches, pretty mediocre specimen and has that been cleaned? Doesn't look right to me... kinda grainy.

I saw that ages ago, as I do an "1826" search almost daily to turn up any sixpences, half crowns or crowns. I had considered buying it when I just saw the obverse, with a view to upgrading. However, when I turned to the reverse, It was too worn for what I wanted so I think I'll pass - thanks anyway!

Edit: This is in my watch pile. Looks a lot better than GVF to me, but the reverse 11 o'clock edge knock is bothering. I may bid if "the price is right". The tone is rather yummy but is it natural? Also, the reverse seems to have a turquoisey tinge...

Wow!...The reverse on that is fantastic, although the toning on the obverse is a bit 'much'...good luck with it :)

Decent coin, but the obverse toning is too much for me and not grey.

So i'd give it a miss myself.
