Maundy coins

[markn]

They look very good. Was it because of your birthday!

It was because she's nice.  Mostly I don't deserve it.

I have my eye on this set, pretty expensive But they do look rather Good.

[ausjack]

Gee wizz some beautiful coins there :drooling:

Bullcrap, For a Bloke that gladly walks 12k for charity and provides and maintains for us Aussie collectors this forum free of charge it is simply "Karma" Mate.
We all know that behind that "hard Nosed" and tough exterior lies a Bloke with a Heart of Gold that is always ready to offer a helping hand.
So I recon YES , You DO deserve it Mate :ok:

Have you sent that 1903 set away to be graded Mark, they look like they will grade nicely ?

No, haven't sent them.  Not sure if I will.  They'll grade in the 64-65 range but not sure it's worth the extra expense.  I actually only have a few of my Maundy sets graded.

I have to have mine in slabs or I would loose the little Beggars :angel:

I picked this one up on eBay yesterday for just over $20.
I think it may be a Matte Proof but won't know until I have it "In Hand"
Just goes to show that these Can be sourced at a reasonable cost.

I'm on a bit of a roll , I picked this one up for just over $40 delivered from the UK
Looks like it has been cleaned But I kind of expect that with a nearly 250 year old coin, otherwise it looks to be in pretty good nick and I don't have any of these types yet.

I picked these up from the post office yesterday.
I suspect that they have been dipped and cleaned (I could be wrong)  the 2d coin has a rather "Nasty" obverse as well.
It is a shame because there is NO wear and the strike is excellent on this set.
I don't seem to be having much luck finding a decent 1905 set :dash1:

Here are my images, Comments welcomed.

I don't seem to be having much luck finding a decent 1902 set

No wonder if the seller keeps sending the wrong year. :biggrin: :blum3:
