marbury518 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 552 Posts	Posted 01/17/2014 3:50 pm This was the most valuable coin I bought tonight and is probably a solid VF....not sure how this would slab on the Sheldon scale....PCGS/NGC. Coin under the light......and something looks odd about the C in Victoria. Edited by marbury518 01/18/2014 11:02 am Report this Post to the Staff

molydeii Pillar of the Community Turkey 870 Posts	Posted 01/18/2014 4:50 pm Yes, a solid VG I think, too. A very locely coin. Congratulations.. I have no idea about the Sheldon system though.. The "C" looks like double struck, can I be correct? Report this Post to the Staff

molydeii Pillar of the Community Turkey 870 Posts	Posted 01/19/2014 05:31 am Sorry. I made a typo. It is VF indeed. A lovely coin.. Report this Post to the Staff
marbury518 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 552 Posts	Posted 01/19/2014 05:56 am Thanks.....nearly had heart attack.....I overpaid anyway and bought it as an EF for Â£200....I just started seeing what I wanted to see for some reason...fixed the problem by seller throwing in the two other coins for free...the 1695 Crown and the 1887 Double Florin. See other posts. Popped it on e-bay to test the waters and appears little interest which I am surprised about. Edited by marbury518 01/19/2014 05:57 am Report this Post to the Staff

CCGB 2014 F =Â£40 VF =Â£100 These are retail prices so I would want to pay less. Report this Post to the Staff
marbury518 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 552 Posts	Posted 01/22/2014 4:35 pm I kind of did triage after the deal on the 1845 half crown.....only paid the same seller Â£20 for the nice double florin 1887, got the 1697 Crown for free and just got an 1845 Crown in Fine for Â£40.......not the best way to engage in such business but I did well in the end.
