1958 good year but . . .

I don't have one, do you??

I don't have a Churchill Crown either.

Extremely RARE

LIAR!!!!!!

Don
The currency coin is worth around $3-4 in BU. This is a proof with a mintage of probably 4. I wish I had seen it....

Lloyd, I think NE had two on their site. Be right back.

spinaker2000 · November 21, 2003 11:23AM

Yep, there's two listed. One cameo and one not.

ajaan · November 21, 2003 11:24AM

Thanks Lloyd, I had no idea it was so rare.

Proofs of this type exist for many of the George VI and Elizabeth II years, for most of the denominations. Except for 1937, 1950, 1951, 1953 and 1970, they are all extremely rare.

I didn't know that. Interesting. My first instinct was, "Oh, it's a $3-4 coin. So the proof is scarcer. OK, make it thirty bucks."

Look at the buyers feedback. The seller's never going to see the money anyway.

lordmarcovan · November 21, 2003 3:48PM

Not a good feedback rating, that's for sure, and were I a betting man, I would say Veridicus is right- NEN will never see any money from that bidder, but the bidder's bad feedback did all come from one seller, so you never know.

The thing about the feedback is all 4 negs came from one seller who has quite a few negs himself. I wouldn't necessarily bet on this guy getting his money either, but it could just be that these two had a problem and otherwise the guy is ok.

That's a seriously beautiful coin!

ajaan · November 21, 2003 8:37PM

The buyer has done business with NEN before, no problems. Northeast will see their money IMO.

Yes, now that I've taken a more detailed look at this guys feedback, it would seem that it's the other guy who has a problem and NEN will probably get their money. I'd still hate to have only 20 feedback responses, and 4 of them be negative.
