My newest addition to my Kempson's Coventry Collection is a nice proof example of the Cook Street Gate Dalton & Hamer 269.

Just arrived today after getting stuck in the Royal Mail computer/terror incident last month. I was sure hoping it wasn't going to get lost forever as the tracking info took over two weeks to clear up and I was finally issued a new number to track it. Was in Chicago US Customs early this morning and I was really surprised when it was delivered this afternoon almost 1000 miles away. I have another Coventry token even nicer than this one from the same dealer. Hope it arrives faster this time around.

@ Bacchus2 some really nice shillings, thanks for sharing.
@zookeeperz A stunner indeed

Just saying, and no offense meant to anyone, this forum and the Ancients are my way-in-front favourites. Gotta love the history.

Afternoon all,

Been busy getting a few new bits in. Picked this little number up at auction this week. A 1697 sixpence. A lovely little piece and far nicer in hand than in these images, with some super lustre on the reverse.

A departure from my usual copper and bronze, but nabbed a few little silver sixpences on my trawls.

1697 sixpence is amazing. High grade with some original luster. What's not to like about that one.
