    Bill- I am not the one to give you a price on your coin, but I was surfing a few sites during lunch and came across this:

    COLCHESTER TREASURE HUNTING HOLIDAYS IN ENGLAND with pictures of any number of coins you could expect to find during this treasure hunting gala including these of a George II shilling:

    So a quick flight to Colchester and you've got a nice coin for free + airfare.image

    We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread.image

    The 1758 is very common, they were minted for many years after 1758 and can still be found in high grade with ease. Having said that, the example show is a nice one that should sell for about $100-125.

    I agree with Aethelred in connection with the 1758 being common... even in high grade, however, the pictured coin looks quite nice and even though it may be a common date, it appears to be an above average strike and perhaps $145-160 for the pictured coin would not be unreasonable given the current state of the British market.

    Python, what do they want? I am curious to see how far off the mark I am, not to mention the dead King.

    Yes I agree $365.00 is way too much.
