There is a rather nice extract on their site to tempt us all:

There is a fabulous picture of the group on this link.

Stephen, definitely no problem with that. I was delighted to hear the news!

on this site about two months ago

17th December. Thank you.

I think I was confusing it with a group on display in the Ladysmith Siege Museum.

With thanks for the clarification
David

I have just received this email from City Coins:

City Coins Postal Medal Auction No. 63 will be available online from 8am, Friday 8 March 2013. This coincides with the launch of the new website – www.citycoins.com/ .

City Coins new auction is UP......

Some nice items as always......

Just hope that no one here will bid on the items that I am looking at.... LOL

Gentlemen,
I spent sometime this morning looking at this catalogue and I think there would be something in there to interest all of us, a very fine offering.
