  1. They appear to be silver plate marks rather than silver hallmarks.

    Help with hallmarks

    Most likely a silver plate item with the maker's initials and a cartouche. It's possible to track down maker's information with this but often very difficult due to the nature of silver plate marks.
  3. I've seen cleaned coins go extra shiny all over but this does make the most sense with regards the apparent overall consistency. Possibly a chemical of some kind was used in the process. The listing ended and he hasn't gotten back to me, probably the last we'll hear of it but who knows. 🌞
  4. Not sure about market value of these in original proof condition, but if you're not bothered about immaculate condition it's worth sticking up a wanted ad for a handled/impaired proof that will likely trade for bullion value or close to it. 🌞
  5. The seller got back to me quickly, he claims it was part of a "high end job lot" from one of the "biggest sellers" on eBay. It was labelled as matt on the coin flip it came in says he, but he said he would chase up the seller he bought it from and query it as he wasn't sure himself... 🌞
  6. I have no doubt this isn't anything special, its just odd that if it were merely a camera effect why would the seller lean on it as a selling pont (rhetorical as it's eBay)? I wonder if it really is matt to the eye what may have caused it. Ill ask 'em for a laff 🌞
  7. A thought; Numista has a note that says they dropped the 'shield in garter' sixpence because some opportunists gold plated them to pass off as half sovereigns. I wonder if this is one of those and the plate has worn?
  8. Hello all. Is this a thing? I cant find a reference to it after a bit of searching. Was going to ask the seller as they appear to be a coinshop but thought I'd probe here first. Lost it's lustre evenly? Camera making it appear more matt-like and the seller is leaning into it as a selling point? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335083140069?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=3lu86khdqkq&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=pyFb3npiRtS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY 🌞

Look how this sexy curvy babe wants to sell you this rare gold 1887 collectible queen half crown victoria or something 🌞
  10. Well I'm not inserting it anywhere to find out 🌞
