This truly is a “head scratcher.” It would probably take years for me to make my mind up as to which coins I would choose. To be able to pick only a half dozen would be nearly impossible. What a great subject for a video Numi!! Excellent food for thought✌️
Fascinating video. I imagine the bodeleian library had that dispensation for educational terms, one of the major advantages of going to Oxford was access to the knowledge in that library. I am surprised at the value of restrikes, the recent engravers series stuns me for the values seen in secondary market. Thanks for the new info and angle of this video
None for me, coz I like my coins to come from their respective periods. Any "re-minting" many years after just doesn't hold the same fascination and awe.
That's a real toughie. How about that old sovereign that was reproduced some years back I think it had a Tudor coat of arms on its back. I know the replica has gone up in value.
This would be great idea for collectors, but not so good for the value of the existing coins!! But if possible, I would like a first strike proof Gothic crown!!
With the letters to support the existence of those particular Terner Collection coins, why shouldn’t they be graded as unique restrikes? They were not minted until years later, yet have previous dates from original dies. Just a thought... Granted, they are all gorgeous pieces that I would love to have in my own collection!
great video numi, great topic,...id love a 1656 fifty shillings, a 1819 george 111 soverign,..an 1828george 4th soverign...a 1703 VIGO queen Anne half guinea.....and the full guinea...lol thats all i'd wish for...dont want to seem greedy..:)
even though i don;t have any rarities i would feel bad for the astute collectors for the value of their holdings would dive and that's painful! but i will get 5 guinea coins, all crowns, una and the lion, gothic crown esp, three graces . sovereigns and halves are too small to spark joy in my heart, lol)
