I’ll take this one if still available please.

I kind of agree, but the Pistrucci George & Dragon design is more than worthy of inclusion into the series. Hopefully there will also be a nice uplift in value of the original 1818- 20 Crown it will be a re-working of 👍

And a 1985 Maklouf and a 2016 James Butler Portraits

Agreed- the least I’ve seen is £900 with fees, I kicked myself for not purchasing. More usually this set between £1000 and £1200.

Nice pick up. This particular set is sought after- I’ve been an underbidder many times on a 1953 set- difficult to find under £900.

I think, and given the scenario you set out- you’ve probably stacked plenty of bullion in case of a SHTF scenario if you did need to sell, so in this scenario why not purchase a really nice high grade Sovereign. High grade historic coins will always find buyer, no matter if you buy Gold or Silver, a Milled or Hammered coin. Long term, if you buy the right coin, your investment will trump any 1oz bullion purchase you make now. Taking the leap of faith will be your biggest obstacle.

I’ll take 1x 18’’ necklace and 1x bracelet please

What a wonderful Sixpence? @jultorsk Thanks for sharing. Congratulations on this one, lovely full flan and plenty of detail on the Obverse- her collar and robes look new! And on both sides, very clear Legends. Is this Spink 2562? Its a solid VF grade, all day long.

Agreed, but the odd holiday or treat in retirement on the back of saving from something that’s nice to hold in your hand in the meantime would be satisfying.

Good to see you back Steve

The 2020 edition of Spink will suffice in terms of information- the latest edition will provide a more up to date price guide- prices have jumped exponentially since 2020- and you can take with a pinch of salt price guides when it comes to the higher grade examples! Auction sites such as Noonans, London Coins, Spink, Hosker Haynes, Baldwins etc. etc are also great resources as well as specialist online dealers.

I would say spend time visiting well established coin fairs, handle the coins, and ask the dealers questions- importantly, find an era/ period/ monarch you’re interested in and do some research. Also join some Facebook groups where you’ll pick up some good information. There’s some fabulous books available that’ll give you lots of reading/ overview, I would recommend this Spink book- it won’t break the bank either, there is also a Decimal volume. Spink, Coins of England Pre- Decimal Issues, is in my opinion, a must have- this will provide you a good overview of each period from Celtic Coinage up until Elizabeth II Pre- Decimal. The 2024 Edition will be released soon. Once you find a period you’re interested in- then get geeky!

It looks like: Elizabeth I (1558-1603) Threepence 1578- 82, mm Rose, Fifth Issue. Spink 2573.
