i also found out why he was in canada in 1966 March 21 to March 23 3 Official Toronto, Ottawa, Montréal; to present Medals to the recipients of The Duke of Edinburgh's Award.

Wonder who has Number 1..

Just some thin a little older for you all ? do you know what it is ?

Dooly ,Is that a 1971 proof set....If it is please post the other side...

 

edited to add; If the half is as cameod as it looks it may be worth a couple bucks...

yep 1971

Picked up my Birthday proof set today (from the US) cannot wait to crack it open and see if there are any coins good enough to NGC

Good condition frog yarm...

1/2 dollar rey XF price $250 - Unc $975 mintage of 700,000

so i think about $250-$300 or more on eBay

Do i remember this coin from before

Price ? hard one Xf $75 Unc $300 gess i would think around the $100 mark

just had to post this hear Happy now MM

Got this today at the coin shop in newcastle £3.50

" I TAKE THE RESPONSIBILITY" token

Is it a HT 70 (1833) or a HT 71 (1837) any one know !

The 34 S Peace Dollar posted yesterday came back as Cleaned.

 

With all of the chatter on it I am surprised one could tell whether it had been or not, oh well............

 

The 1921 Peace came back as Reverse Damage. Here is a pic, is this typically all it takes for NGC to BB based on this extent of damage? Just curious for future benefit.

 

The good news is that the 27 D and 35 S 3 Ray Peace Dollars came back as MS 62 and MS 64 respectively. Wasn't expecting the 64 so that kind of makes up for the two bad ones.
