‘THE HOARD’
VICTORIA 1887
SILVER 3 PENCE
PART OF ANTIQUE DEALER’S PERSONAL
COIN HOARD OVER 30 YEARS
PROVENANCE BELOW
A fabulous example of a Victorian
Silver threepence.
On one side is a crown over
18 3 37
Surrounded by a laurel wreath.
The obverse is and profile of
Middle aged Victoria wearing
Her crown on her widows
Headdress known as the
'Jubilee Head'.
Every detail is crisp and clear and
I can see little if any evidence of
it ever being in circulation but as
stated below I am an Antique Dealer,
not a Numismatist.
PLEASE look at the
photos to judge for yourself -
it's a little beauty though.

CONDITION
This little coin is in amazingly
good condition, as far as I’m
concerned and looks
‘Almost Uncirculated’ to
me BUT I’m an Antiques
Dealers NOT a Numismatic
dealer and so not qualified
to officially grade coins.
Anyway it would have to be
a desirable addition to a
any collection.
NO cleaning done by us on any of
the coins we are listing.
WILL COMBINE POSTAGE WHERE POSSIBLE
THE HOARD
The coins we are listing have been
picked up from estates we have
purchased over the last 35+ years.
Thousands of coins from around
the world and covering 4 centuries
and beyond (1 Roman coin) that we’ve
never had the time to sort through to
sell them so just kept accumulating.
We are now retired (semi) and have
had a great time over the last
few weeks
Noodling and doing a bit of
research
BUT
we were general Antique dealers,
NOT coin dealers and so our knowledge
is limited hence nothing will be
graded
using the official coin grading tables
as it would be guess work by us but
with the help of good clear
photos
and our own assessment of each listing
we feel potential buyers will
have all
the tools required to feel confident and
pleased with their purchase
(see our feedback for happy customers).
We will be selling some bulk lots and/or
groups of coins and some individually
(not getting any younger and not possible
to list them one by one).
Always be reassured we are happy
to answer any questions you may have
and combine postage to the fullest
extent we can (it’s getting costly!)
