Would this Ch. I Shilling get BB'd?

[JCM-Houston]

I've asked in the Ask NGC forum but often it takes quite a long time for an answer, any thoughts from you guys would be welcome. Planchet is not the best, but I've seen worse.

Hi there

 

Nice Charles I 1639-40 Tower mint Class 4-D you have there.

 

as you probably know the class 4-D issues were often struck on irregular flans so i don't think that your coin would be knocked back due to that.

 

I am questioning some of the toning on the coin, but that could be the photo

 

i have some hammereds (and a Celtic) over the pond at NGC at the moment so i don't think you should have any problems if the toneing is natural

 

good luck dooly

Very nice early shilling. Hey dooly, is there a book specifically about shillings, or do I need to get a general English coin book? I am working on a shilling type set by monarch, and want more info.

Wow you must be loaded ! any chance of a sub !!

 

there are a couple of books but unlike the American collectors the uk do not go in for specific books on types of coins "well not that i know about" there is a one about crowns which is like chicken lips..

 

What kind of book do you require IE hammered-milled, hammered alone, complete listing or general/type listings etc

 

all the best dooly

 

Ps i have a 1746/45 Lima NGC AU55 if you want and its only $2.000

Not really. I haven't gone past George III yet and I am going for choice VF-EF coins, so I really haven't spent much money on it yet. Eventually I plan on going back to hammered stuff, but not yet.
