Some British NEWPS

JCMhouston

I felt like I got pretty lucky with some better date British minors in the HA auction tonight. None of these are particularly high grade coins but all are pretty scarce in mint state.

1819/8 Sixpence PCGS MS64



1828 Sixpence NGC MS62, with a mintage of only 16,000.



1829 Sixpence PCGS MS63, this is the ex-Pittman example:



Last but not least an 1829 Shilling NGC MS63, the last one that came up just had a runaway price so I was really worried I wouldn't be able to get this one either.

Congrats. Some nice coins in tonight's auction for sure.

That was a great looking 1854 Shilling (PCGS MS64) in the auction...went for a strong price at just north of $8200.

Jeff, nice coins there...I think the 1828 6d a bit underrated in higher condition. Looks like you are building a fine collection of the earlier 19th C. bits!

In seeing the 1854 shilling, I was trying to remember the venue for the finer of the 1850 shillings (overdate I think) that sold about two or three years ago.

Well played- congrats

I did think the '54 Shilling was pretty strong, all in all though the prices seemed medium to weak to me. Only one of mine did I have to come close to my max bid, a little surprising to me but there wasn't a large number of rarities or ultra high grade pieces in the sale.
