I dropped these at hosts in Baltimore and TruViews just back so I took a picture of them.
PCGS would not let me get the attribution even though I had them from the original Norweb Sale because I can't prove it. Maybe not too many other 1932 shillings in this quality of Proof ?

Or how about a 1934 shilling in Proof 67 Cameo?


This is not Norweb but is ex-Baldwin's basement. Satin proof 1944 (E):

Wow… amazing coins. Did you have anything to establish a Norweb connection?
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
Well, I bought them from Spink; about 25 years ago from the SNC circular. I also had graded a raw 1937 halfcrown cameo proof that I though might be under graded at 55 Cameo proof.

Absolutely incredible group. Love them all.

Oh, but for the old days of the SNC (Spink Numismatic Circular)...

When demand was low. Prices were low. And lots of good coins were available without bidding at auction.
I wish I bought more in 1998!
