NumisMattyUk Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2217 Posts	Posted 07/12/2008 4:10 pm Please evaluate: this is worth 140 GBP in VF and 200 GBP british XF. I'd say this is in the XF range but cannot be certain. Can anyone help me out in the evaluation of this? For me this is a big piece - the biggest I've got so far, so it makes me nervous and a little excited :P ... what fun!... £175 approx with postage included.. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...360066973676 You don't get too many good shoppertunities on ebay so you gotta take your chances..

Looking at the enlarged scans on the ebay page the reverse seems wonderful! It even seems to glow a little.. Edited by NumisMattyUk 07/12/2008 9:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff
