Another nice coin, a "bucket lister" for me, a high grade 1935 George V silver Crown.
That one's still on my bucket list. Uncommon and OTT prices in Oz.

A nice, mostly brown, with some mint red, 1912-H (Heaton) George V Penny.

Here's another. Nothing rare, but it is pretty. It's a 1929 George V shilling with colorful toning, especially on the obverse.

An finally for today, a high grade red and brown 1890 Victoria Penny. The photo doesn't show it, but the reverse is quite colorful and reflective when tipped in the light.

They're beauties, Paul. The 1890 is a stunner, I love that ornate trident. The toning on the shilling is very appealing. Thanks for sharing.

As an aside, Princetane would simply love all of the recent adds. I haven't noticed him about the forum for a number of weeks, hoping all is ok with him and home.

Afternoon all, This little piggy went to market and came home with this little 1862 farthing beauty. Slabbed unfortunately and any scuff marks are on that, and has a couple of little dabs around Britannia's head. Otherwise full, brilliant colour and lustre, far better in hand than my useless camera can convey.

Not stunning, but has a nice circulation cameo. Well-circulated. I didn't need this coin, of course, but the price as right and there's no such thing as having too many coins. 1817 Half Crown - George III

Quote: .....and there's no such thing as having too many coins. Amen to that. There's no denying the beauty of an uncirculated coin of any age, but a coin such as yours is an honest coin, and it has it's own beauty rubbed into it from changing hands down through time.
