1940 Silver Two Shilling

NoCents -welcome to the forums. Re. the coins value - do you have to make such minute photos or was that an ebay photo? **snicker** that would seem to ;fit' somehow - I'd say it's a VF but I've lost my price guide, maybe 5 dollars or so..

About the same as my estimation..




Huahuahaha ... it isn't going to make much of a difference in this case to be honest...I always find it curious when we're splitting hairs over the value of a coin like this

Collectors' Coins GB because of the low price tag and it's very comprehensive and goes back to 1797. Only you have to grade things as they are graded over here for the values to work. You can almost certainly find it on 'the auction website'.

Yep there are 'variants' in there too, but not all varieties as naturally there are too many to list every single variety and some are still unrecognized varieties. How does pricing compare to Krause? Well it should still be close to 1 pound = $2 though you can just Google it at any time -let's see right now Goog' is saying '1 GBP = $1.7614' (yikes, didn't expect that much of a change in value!...) when I just type in the words '1 pound in dollars'. The reverse gives $1 = 0.57 pounds.

Asides from wondering how pricing differs between the two, it is much more important to think of how grading varies...

Of course the market is also stronger 'at home' too...but I don't think drastically, as the British market is still not close to being overpriced yet (that will give me more time to build up my riches eheh), especially when you consider the most expensive British coin cost the "buyer" a paltry 460,000 GBP ($810,000)

Gold Double Leopard of Edward III



Compare the 'value' of that rare beauty to that of some of the more recent, milled rareties!..
