Halfcrown 1903 ESC 748, Bull 3569 UNC in an LCGS holder and graded LCGS 78, the finest known of 13 examples thus far recorded by the LCGS Population Report, an extremely rare piece with few examples extant in this high grade, indeed many dealers claim this to be rarer than the 1905 Halfcrown in this high grade and our archive database does not contradict this theory
Halfcrown 1904 ESC 749, Bull 3570 UNC toned with underlying mint lustre, in an LCGS holder and graded LCGS 80, the finest known of 17 examples thus far recorded by the LCGS Population Report, very few Edward VII Halfcrowns attain the 80 grade, especially any of the rarer dates such as this

The variety beyond dispute and this example quite possibly one of the finest examples in existence, we note we have handled only 5 other examples since 2003, we also note this is superior to the example in the Laurie BamfordCollection sold in 2006 described as 'Fair', hence a rare opportunity for the advanced collector of the key varieties in this series

Shilling 1905 ESC 1414, Bull 3591 UNC exhibiting plenty of original mint lustre, in a PCGS holder and graded MS63, a most attractive example with lots of eye appeal, with very few of this date available in this high grade, a rare opportunity for the Shilling Specialist, we would suggest as nice as the example offered in London Coins Auction A143 (Lot 2295) which realised £5148 inclusive of buyers premium
