All those coins are nice, love the 1921 Sixpence, you seldom see these beyond worn flat and green. That one is at least EF.
The farthings and the penny are also really nice.

Well I find them exciting - terrific score!
Farthings are such pretty little coins and its great when most of them survive in better shape than pennies and halfpence!
The 1830 is a knockout!

Those two proof coins from 1937 I brought are definitely not EF, they arrived today and scream UNC or at least highest AU - absolute beauties. Photos can't do them justice enough.   Don't they look cute! (Holders are bags sent in, they will be removed to proper flips, although I may buy capsules for them).

In a moment of sheer madness I bought this on ebay - one of those coins I never dreamed I would own. A William and Mary crown dated 1691. There's a small dig at the bottom of William's portrait but overall I'm very pleased with it. You don't see these coins very often although the later William III coins are very common:  One feature of this coin that I really like is the decorative interlinked Ws and Ms between the shield on the reverse, which liven up what can be quite a drab design. I had another moment of madness soon afterwards, so expect more big silver to come...

That's a nice one, @NumisRob! Also an interesting arrangement of the figures in the year (took me a few seconds to realize that is what they are  ).
