Wow, VF is very harsh, I think even CGS would go better than that? To me (hence personal opinion) this is EF http://www.ebay.com/itm/1849-Queen-...047675.l2557Quote:
Incidentally, how do I quote a post? Click reply to topic at the top and use the quote icon - 2nd from right in the middle line. I have decided to join the school of Peter1234 with regard to grades  |

I would give it GVF. There is wear beyond EF and a fair share of dings. I still like it but why on earth slab it? Book value about £70 ish worth to dealer £25 ish (slabbing £20?) Thanks Rooney for the grading compliment. There is plenty of over grading about.  |

Thanks for all your input. No slab it is. So if I were to put it on ebay I should expect around $50? |

I would expect more like double that, i.e. $100 USD ... I agree with GVF, if not GVF + :) ... Not really worth slabbing a $50 coin is it? (to sell ...) But might well recoup the outlay on this one IMHO.

In all honesty I probably did overcook it a little bit, I think Paulus' GVF 'and better' is a place I'm happy at! |

Welcome Jim to the club  It is very well selling to other collectors on ebay with dubious grades going back and forth. However auctions & dealers will cut us poor collectors to shreds come selling day.That £400 EF becomes a £100 VF  |

Quote:RPM the new UK TPG. Nothing wrong with being a strict grader. Picture is a close up of a coin that is VF/EF Compare with the top section of the coin of the OP's F/VF  You will never soar like an eagle if you hang around with turkeys.....

Peter, did I read somewhere that you are pretty good with early hammered id? Or was it someone else. Got a few I could use a hand with, not really my thing.

Hi Met
I'm keen and feel confident on the basics.
However;
Clive of HistoricCoins.com
Rob of RPCoins
TWowoodheart (Richard) for Charles 1
These are fountains of knowledge.
There are many more specialists who will be willing to assist / help.
The list is a who's who of the UK coin market and beyond.
Many read this forum and some post.None bite.
