It\'s not about who you know it\'s about what you know

Would you believe absolute rubbish (send it to me and I will give you ten bucks for it)!
Would you believe VF and I will give you $20 for it?
Would you believe...
Looks quite nice actually. Who took the pics? I am still baffled as how to capture the lustre like that.

Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.

I took the photos but the hair has some flat spots  just above queens ear and I
cant work out if it is wear or not as there is no wear on any other part of the coin

Hard to say. Is the flatness in parts of the hair actual wear?

On looking at it again it looks more like an irregularity in the pattern

This photo may show it better but difficult to capture in artificial light

Looks to me like it's been silver dipped or cleaned in some way & EF.

Not really most of these turn up VF at best, This is defiantly a nice example from circulation :good:
I think I can remember people bagging PP for buying one of these for Mark for about $100 in UNC,
Looks like PP had the right idea and got in early :yahoo:

I think that coin has been cleaned.  I don't like the "halo" I can see around some of the letters and devices.

I think you are right Mark.
It does look like a "Peter Wallace" coin :ok:
