Very happy for you mate….. so what’s happening to the ms63?🤣

Good question! At this time I am holding and will likely do for a while. Will auction if I ever sell, I think!

What was interesting was that this prediction was the day after the PM announced the UK would go into lockdown. The Coronavirus Act received royal assent the following day and the UK went into lockdown on 26 March.

Crazy timing and Wonger most likely thought that everyone would be selling. He took a punt. It was a wild punt!!

Spotted a few sovereign's that I could do with for the collection. Is the 18% buyer's premium plus VAT or inclusive of VAT?

The premiums are exclusive of VAT. So you’re needing to add on 21.6%. That is still better than Heritage and Baldwin St James etc. 

Good point though and an important reminder that if you lose your mind during an auction the £3,500.00 you just spent on a sovereign means you will get an invoice for £4,256.00!

The 20F and SA gold will be going to a dealer today. Anyone want these before I move them on? Cheers!

Ah thanks for clarifying that.

I can’t seem to find the premium auction anymore for some reason, but I recall seeing the (ungraded) Gothic Crown 2oz plain edge as one of the lots, and there was no condition description for it.

I didn’t scan the entire set of lots but I will this weekend. 🙂

It is described as A/FDC which means ‘almost fleur de coin’. It looks good to me but of course they don’t want to say it is perfect if the buyer grades and gets a PR68! 

This is not the premium auction. This is their world coin auction. They always describe the condition in their premium auctions which is the topic of this thread.

I do now see what you mean and agree and think they should do this with all their auctions. I also agree that I would not buy without a condition description. I am a little lucky that I live in London and so can go to view the coins if ever needed.

Is there anything catching your eye in this current auction where the conditions are described?

The only problem (for me) is they don’t describe the condition of coins, unless no mention of condition is supposed to be taken as no issues? That’s a risky assumption to make. 😅 

They do describe the condition. Are you thinking of another auction house?

Any coin that is not slabbed by a third party grading service is described in pretty accurate terms. I have never personally had issues. I don’t buy cleaned coins so for me this is important. For example:

Evening!

Coin Cabinet’s latest Premium Auction has just gone live.

Some interesting coins including a 2021 Plain Edge Gothic Quartered Arms. Only 125 minted! Probably a bargain for someone in the end, I would think.

Anyone in for anything? I have my eyes on a few things! Some lovely early Victoria silver, half sovereigns and a beautiful selection of farthings! 

Pm will be with you in the next thirty mins! Just out with the dog!!

I'll take this little haul if still available please!

 

Sorry for delay in response @katyc. Someone contacted me about the A Mark. Just waiting to hear back from them. If they take that are you still interested in the rest? Free postage will remain as applied, if so. Sorry again for the delay. 

Anyone for anything before these are withdrawn? Sorry for the bump, but just checking in before I do close this down. Cheers.

'They say..the only way is up' I think they lied.

It’s because I listed gold for sale. Always drops when I put up listings!!!

Given the plunge in gold price overnight, please note some reductions in the non-proof coins.
