sequence in which they are received, first come, first
served.

contribution towards administration fees and exchange
rates. Orders will be sent out only after
receipt of payment. We reserve the right to wait for
clearance of cheques for those customers not already
known to us.
- Approval Period: We offer to
accept back for a full refund, any items which do not
meet our customer's expectations, within ten days of
receipt of that item. All material remains the property

receipt

- Book Postage: A separate price
will be be quoted for books and heavier items, please
check with us and we will be pleased to assist.
- Grading: Using the British system
of F (Fine), VF (Very Fine), EF (Extremely Fine), UNC
(Uncirculated) etc., we have tried to keep it as simple
as possible by using + and - after the grade to indicate
"better than" or "less than" rather
than "nice or good" and "nearly or
almost". It should be borne in mind, when
considering hammered coins, that the quality of strike
and wear on dies varies greatly resulting in a poorly
struck coin, or a coin struck from worn dies, looking
like a lower grade having been in circulation a only
short time.
