Did you just go to your LCS and buy a bunch of coins at a bulk price?

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.

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.

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 :) |
