Continuing from the other thread.. Do you know/trust this seller? Also: I would demand better photos than that. Maybe I'm just being a wimp, but there's a reason why at this time I stick with slabbed (complete with TPG images) for stuff like this. Google current & past prices for yours, including from (non-eBay) auctions..
Here are the photos I have can you tell me a weight it should weigh etc or other test methods eg magnet slide which I have. Do I trust him I know him a family friend and I remember him saying he was buying a coin off a family who had it in the family for 100 years And this is that coin so guys shall I go see it and does 300 sound fair for this condition ?.?
I'm seeing a weight of 28.28g.. diameter of 38.61mm Would you like me to buy it for you, too? You didn't mention if $300 USD or AUD. Honestly, you're probably gonna have to do some legwork on this.. Do a search on this particular crown. Make sure it's the same exact one, as I believe there are varieties out there. I'm sure others are currently for sale, and have sold in the past. See what prices they fetch(ed). Compare the photos to help get a better idea of what grade this might be. As mentioned, I don't do raw for stuff like this. I gladly pay up for slabbed. I might be a wimp, but I also don't fret much with TPG images that contain exact/minute distinguishing marks, toning, etc. There is risk in raw. But also reward.
Please do lol thank you for the weights if I can weight it and its correct I'm in England so GBP and they sell on eBay and sites for 500 up to 5800 pounds
I might bite the bullet drive to see it and do some tests I have a weight of 1703-1713 Silver, 30 grams, 39mm Diameter. Similar to your weight the only way to know is this way and can I ask how much does it cost to get something like this graded and slabbed thanks
There's a price range, depending on level of service. Check NGC's / PCGS's site. So, would this family friend be willing to send in to NGC / PCGS to be authenticated, graded & slabbed -- prior to your purchase? They won't slab a fake. And I don't believe they charge the full fee in that case, either.
E He has offered it to me as is I would want it slabbed after/if I buy it though so I will look at the price list thanks
