(Premium Content) posted a topic in UK (Ungraded)

I have a 1989 proof double sovereign graded by NGC as PF70 Ultra Cameo but that’s worth £1,800 in the current market. They were fetching around £2K on FB before the market dipped ahead of last winter. No particular rush to sell it but available at the correct price.

@AdminSupport Are you able to tidy up this old thread from Jan 2023 please? It seems to have been accidentally hijacked today by a member going off topic on a separate agenda about his own coin. I initially thought Lawrence Chard was back again until I realised the dates of the earlier comments.

I don’t have any Piedfort coins to grade but I would imagine that a nice chunky Piedfort might look undistinguished in a slab. I think I’d appreciate its thickness better in a capsule rather than a slab. It would also irritate me when the NGC label states “Piefort” rather than the original “Piedfort” french translation for heavy foot, or heavy weight when it comes to coins. Nothing to do with pies whatsoever.

So those charts use candles? 3 candles I could understand, maybe even 5. But they’re so open to misinterpretation when there’s 4.

for sale (By Platinum Member) 2020 Royal Mint Music Legends David Bowie 1oz Gold Proof PCGS PR70 DCAM

£ 2,425 when released by the RM @James32. That’s a bargain price for the raw coin. Daylight robbery for a PR70. Well done! -

Cheers @cliveb13. I’ve been watching the £5 1989 sov for ages on Karl’s website (Mr 1817). The reason being that I want to get a rough idea what my own is worth. My own 1989 long set was submitted for conservation and grading to NCS/NGC through Dave’s service last year and only the full £1 sov failed to achieve PF70 UC. That coin has recently been moved on (in response to Touvex’s wanted PF69 post) but the top grades £5, £2 and half are still with me on hold. A weird market as you say, but hopefully not the new normal for much longer. I agree - we’ll see. Enjoy your big Platinum Jubilee gold coin when it arrives. -

Congratulations Clive. A good purchase at a bargain price. My own is in the same FR label slab, albeit at the wrong side of £3K. You did well. -

GoodAsGold replied to 9x883's topic in UK (Graded only)
Not too long ago some NGC PF70s £2 versions were being snapped up for £2K. Surely the gold price will push the price of key year editions back up in the not too distant future. I’m holding my own one for the time being. -
The only thing I could add to the above comments is that having done lots of “spot the difference” cartoons mostly in my childhood, I couldn’t resist the urge to compare the barcodes between the NGC/PCGS photos and the slab as well. Just don’t sneeze when you’ve almost finished.

Orpster is right. If you can afford precious metals then you can afford the price for peace of mind.

The business operated by Seamus Fahy aka @James32. Have you not noticed that he holds a spare key to all of our boxes, regardless of location?

More servings of food for thought. Have to like these opposing views too. Personally this released isn’t quite my cup of tea. But I had to come down off the fence because all these splinters are hurting my arse. Looking forward to a few of the forthcoming Monarchs series (if they happen). Let’s hope this GE release isn’t fraught with the usual QC issues for those of you buying the raw versions.

Hi Dave. I think you’ve taken my comments out of context. I wasn’t implying that this release is from a “Not So Great Engraver”. I was responding to tpcob303’s post wherein he stated “No more after this release for GE I expect”. I merely suggested a Not So Great Engraver series as a follow up, purely because the RM is flogging the music legends series to death and could do so again with the Great Engravers series. Perhaps you meant to quote tpcob’s own lengthy follow up comments after my own one?

Just revisiting this thread and the above comment sums it up perfectly for me. -
I’m clearly too content in my own protective bubble. I’ll stick to the cities in the north.
