Thanks - if ok with you I will reserve these for you and you can confirm once you have seen the pictures. I think you will be happy, but would prefer you to be sure first. Hope this is OK.

That would be great. Many thanks

My mum is lovely and old but I'd doubt you'd want a date with her without a photo. They all seem on the incredible cheap side.

Cheap? Really? What would you expect to pay for these coins?!

Of course.

Cheap as compared what sells on eBay.  But condition is everything with these . Maybe not cheap when we have a look with due respect.

Thanks for your thoughts. I agree that these are cheap compared with Ebay but I think you could say this about pretty much every item sold on the Silver Forum - it is what makes this place great. The prices are always good. 

If your comments in respect to value are being made in relation to the uploaded pictures, I appreciate the feedback and sorry that on this occasion we could not trade! To be honest, if these coins were in MS condition I would not be listing here, they would be going for grading and then to auction. These are coins that I have bought with a view to grading but decided against it. My comments on the coins in the description are accurate. They are good coins that have not been cleaned and bear the love of nearly 200 years of rubbing in pockets etc.!

@AndrewSL76 Many thanks for the pictures. Still happy to proceed. I have sent a PM. 

[pricha]

Thanks Andrew but I'll pass on the 1861 . Prices are fair I'd say.  My imagination just ran away with me, seeing Victoria's listed. The 54 was already gone 😔. Never mind Thank You. 

[AndrewSL76]

Adding a half proof to the listing too - this is a 1998 in nice condition. Great for a collection/date run. I bought with a view to grading, but have decided against continuing with the ERII proof collection and am going to concentrate on the QV Jubilee heads.....

Pictures are below and asking is £250 which includes postage.

I am sending a submission to PCGS in mid august so if anyone did want to buy this I could send for grading too. Would be an extra £35 for the grading and of course, no guarantee that it would get a 70DCAM.

SOLD!

Thank you - totally understandable. Good to let the imagination run away! I get cold chills everytime I see an 1887 half sovereign listed - hoping for a rare variety - and invariably I am disappointed!!!!

Thanks! I appreciate the comment and update. There are a few that are probably in better condition and would grade better. But yes, those two dates are nice!!
