The only thing stopping me from buying up your coins is my lack of funds.... :(

​haha. Well it’s the lack of funds for wanting to lavish my boy in the best clothes and give him the best toys that’s makzing me sell up !
That Gold Coast Ackey makes my heart go "pitter patter". Easily my favourite coin since I joined Numista.

I see I will have to make a decision.

Hi Mark!

Is this the same rixdollar I saw before or an upgraded one?

​Honestly I saw the Ackey being listed and I jumped out of my seat, then I saw the '1' between what I thought was a '£70' and slumped back into it.
List updated some have sold. In discussions about the Gold Coast Ackey and Mombasa 2 Anna’s.
More coins added today and a lot more on over the weekend.
More coins being added this weekend some are selling via bids for an absolute steal !
A load more coins added. I’ll also be adding more this week.
Just listed a load of Indian princely states coins. Sailana, bikanir, bundi, dhar, dewas senior and junior branches, alwar etc. Not all particularly high grades but all scarce and some extremely so.
Items ending tomorrow Saturday and Sunday. Tomorrow is a lovely Mauritius 25 sous the first british minted Coin for there. In french.. LOL.
Last 12 hours for a lot of coins. Probably won’t be listing any Auctions after today as I’m on holiday next week but will resume after !
Sorry to see your collection being broken up but I guess there are more important uses for the money. I did hoewever notice your strict use of "scarce" as opposed to "rare", even for some borderline rare items. I would like to think that virtue brings it's own reward and that buyers will appreciate the honest approach.

Contragtulations, proud to know ya.
Non illegitimis carborundum est.  Excellent advice for all coins.

​Phil,

thanks. I have to admit I know some were bordering on Rare but I hate using it. Scarce is the most appropriate term I believe for anything other than say the petition crown or a 1933 Penny.

I'm trying to be as honest as I can be I’ve always had it drummed into my by my mother “Honesty is the best policy” I find it very sound words to live by !

I'll send you a message via facebook tonight mate. Busy right now ;):8D
