NumisMattic2200 Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 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 ... what fun!... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=360066973676 You don't get too many good shoppertunities on eBay so you gotta take your chances.. ----- £175 roughly...

NumisMattic2200 Posted July 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 Yes, indeed! I will have to see it 'in hand' though - also he is an expert who says it's only GVF so I think the price was actually spot on. Not bad though, because these are hard to acquire! Low mintage of 261, 747! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banivechi Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 This is a rare case of undergrading by the seller. I put my bet here that if you send the coin in the States to a grading company, you will have a nice surprise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NumisMattic2200 Posted July 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 Hi banivechi - yes I agree about the difference in grading i.e. that it will come out significantly higher however the prices in the British books are much higher not just because it's home ground for home coins but primarily because the grading is tougher. It's not much good getting an official or professional opinion of the grade in terms of an American grading company's sytem but then realising that the values are also lower for that 'grade' per se. In any case, this one's hard to come by and I think I got it for the right amount, I am well chuffed, as we say.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
