mrv Valued Member Topic Starter United Kingdom 198 Posts	Posted 02/11/2017 11:27 am Hi Just returned from a visit to another junk shop, I picked up 370 coin and found the following coin, a 1816 shilling in great condition I only paid £14 for all the coins Edited by mrv 02/11/2017 11:28 am Report this Post to the Staff
TobyJ Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1273 Posts	Posted 02/11/2017 11:33 am Great find, that shilling is worth a lot more than £14 alone. Could you post some better photos of it? (Less blur) It looks to be in really good condition. Report this Post to the Staff
mrv Valued Member Topic Starter United Kingdom 198 Posts	Posted 02/11/2017 11:51 am Some better photo's ,, can anybody give me an idea of its value Report this Post to the Staff
mrv Valued Member Topic Starter United Kingdom 198 Posts	Posted 02/11/2017 11:55 am There seems to be some light toning on the coin, really pleased that I got such beautiful coin. I will try to take photos on my camera and upload later. Edited by mrv 02/11/2017 11:56 am Report this Post to the Staff
TobyJ Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1273 Posts	Posted 02/11/2017 12:01 pm Its hard to value because theres some blur on the photo so I can't really tell the grade exactly. I just sold the same shilling for £80 in EF to UNC condition. There's a lot sold on eBay in VF condition for not a lot of money at all which is upsetting. Try using a stand to take the photo, if using a camera. Or, if using your phone, put some lights near the coin and rest your phone on a non-moving object such as a small box, so that it eliminates camera shake :) Report this Post to the Staff
