BigSilver Pillar of the Community United States 2843 Posts	Posted 08/09/2018 10:08 am Wow triple rotated clashes. And a broke up die about the A. Very interesting coin. EF40 cleaned in my opinion. Report this Post to the Staff
Mr T Pillar of the Community Australia 2180 Posts	Posted 08/10/2018 5:16 pm aEF in my opinion. Possibly cleaned but hard to say from the photos. Nice coin anyway - pre-1870s British silver isn't usually this well preserved. Report this Post to the Staff

PaddyB Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 945 Posts	Posted 08/15/2018 2:01 pm As to value - difficult to be precise. I can see one much worse recently sold for £34, and another in similar grade which was listed at £395 but accepted an offer less than that - we can't see what. My gut feel would be around the £100 mark. Pity it is not 1850 - that is a key date and would make a lot more. Report this Post to the Staff

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 09/13/2018 09:51 am If I understand correctly, collectors in Europe are not into error coins nearly as much a North American collectors. That would hold the value down from "across the pond". Report this Post to the Staff
zookeeperz Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 695 Posts	Posted 09/22/2018 08:09 am Cleaned NVF\VF die cracks mean nothing to English collectors as a general rule. The coinage of the era is full of them so it is just a normal process of the minting and die wear. Over dates and wrong letters re-punched with correct letters are sought after and many have huge premiums £35-£50 ;) Report this Post to the Staff
