This auction was one of the hottest topics in the Ungraded section. The bants was off the chart

Even my 87 year old Mum heard about it, and she still thinks the internet is something fish do

I love this place, great to be here. I wished Henry VII would get more attention, than Barry, but you can't have everything. 🤣

Not sure what I think of this purchase so far but it arrived in spotless condition.

More £5 Crowns today.  I do like the poignant edge Inscription on the Trafalgar coins.  

The 40th Anniversary of the Coronation is a nice upgrade, as my existing example lacked Cameo.

And collecting a date run of £5’s/ Crowns isn’t always a joy, and you have to be prepared to take the rough with the smith, as can be seen by the less than desirable Charles’ 50th Birthday Crown.

I have one or two £5 to go with my crowns, but as you say, some are not great!

Just arrived! Another half for the collection.

Also today, an absolutely beautiful 1953 Coronation Set.  You can see the underlying brilliance shining through the haze, and the coins have a Cameo as thick as treacle- this is the nicest 1953 set I’ve had in my hands, and I already own what I thought was a fantastic example.
