I've bought coins from Nobles before and would say that you can trust their grading ,I'd say they tend to undergrade if anything.
As for value their estimate for the 1935 coin looks about right but I'd guess the 1921 coin may fetch up to $1000 above the estimate in my opinion but ultimately you'll have work out what they are worth to you
 Good luck

I'd agree that the estimate on the 1921 seems low (or at least I would have expected it to be higher than the 1935).

[Jaseee]

Yes the 1921 seem to be a very low estimate i think it might go a few thousdand over estimate

I'd agree about the 21 being under-estimated but keep in mind that a number of  aUNC-UNC examples came on the market recently from a hoard.

Just something to consider, when bidding at public auction, you're competing against some of the most knowledgeable collectors and dealers in the market, almost all of them would have viewed the coins in hand before bidding.

If you plan to bid on-line without viewing, what's going to happen is that if you bid on an undervalued item, you'll more than likely be outbid, if you bid on an overvalued item, you'll win it (probably at your maximum bid).

My advice is if possible, view the coins in hand, then bid in the room (or have a trusted dealer do this for you).

dealers have the GST credit advantage as well, don't they?

Paying GST is never an advantage.:@

Those photos, whilst good for seeing the details of the coin, give no indication of eye appeal. I would be viewing them for sure!

[Bigfellani5]

I don't bid in nobles auction and never will

[Jaseee]

I wish i could go view the coins but i live in a remote town to far to travel to view coins. Maybe i need to find a good dealer

If youre going to spend $4000-5000 on those coins I would be spending another $500 on some plane tickets and one nights accomodation and go view them.

[Jaseee]

I wish plane tickets where that cheap i live in a mining town with only one plane company running its 800 dollars one way to brisbane for me

[enworb]

ok thats getting abit expensive then...

[Jaseee]

Yes it would be an expensive outting for me. Thats why i thought i would give the online auction a go
