NumisMattic2200 Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Please evaluate this Henry III penny if possible, I know there aren't many here that know too much about these and I haven't seen Clive in a while but maybe someone can help tell me if this was an okay sort of price to get this for? Am I right in evaluating this as 'vf' from Spink as these are all highly similar, at least to new eyes. And what grade be it? Thanks in advance. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=200249924369 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constanius Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 To me the reverse is vf and the obverse is close to vf or vf (the head is a worn I think for vf but the inscription is definitely vf) Whatever I thing you have a good buy, should be worth almost double what you paid. Do you use this site? LINK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NumisMattic2200 Posted August 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Thanks for the new link! ....and also, thanks for your grading - I was thinking along the lines of F+ to VF but if you only pay 21 quid it's always a safe buy...safe is what I like!

YeOldeCollector Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Ever so slightly off-centre and a strong fine in my opinion, not quite VF. It is indeed Henri on London as your coin reads HEN RIO NLV NDE, overall a nice specimen and a good way to start you off! Let me know if you ever need any hammered help.
