Lady Jane Grey fantasy piece.

Would you English collectors ever add something like this to your collection? Text

I would not.

While it is to think about what a Queen Jane coin might have looked like, I would no be interested in having one in my hammered collection. Just this humble collector's opinion.

£500

I feel the same way. Now if they found a hoard of Jane Shilling I would have a huge interest.

Who's Emery, and when was this fantasy supposedly struck?

The 1960 date mentioned in the provenance seems to relate only to its purchase.

Interesting.

Would I ever add something like that to my collection (assuming I was still collecting English hammered material)?

Yes.

Would I pay £500, or even the £80-£100 estimate for something like that?

No.
