Amazing Quality 1627 Charles I

Dear Sir

I am interested in British Coins and the site which shows the finest items I have ever seen is www.petitioncrown.com and I notice that the ANA hosts a collection from this person.

Who is this secret person? It appears he is more secret to reach him than the Pentagon.



Regards
Brian

Further "secret pentagon" coin collection
by: Anonymous

The "secret pentagon" site is growing weekly www.petitioncrown.com and www.museumcoins.com which are the same has some of the most awesome coins, coronation medals, hammered coins, roman Sestertius in existance many with stories about the specific coins.

The site from what I understand is a non commercial site to encourage new collectors and none of the coins exhibited are from a museum they are all privately owned by the site owner.

Research shows the site owner is always interested to receive ideas to improve the continued visits of the public and numismatic fraternity.

Wiai for further NEWS

by: Anonymous

Never since Montigue in the 1890's is such a collection of quality coins being built. Not USA bit British and Roman Imperial Brass.

The secret, greater than the Pentagon is not important, what is the collection is slowly being brought to the internet.

The internet is the forum for the strange name www.petitioncrown.com with the awesome collection

The collection is increible
by: Anonymous

I read the following story today:

www.petitioncrown.com

As a young collectors we all have dreams, in the USA it can be that one day you will enter an old house and find in a draw a brasher doubloon or 1804 $.

Where did you find it? ? (Referring to 1554 Philip & Mary pattern half-crown on your site http://www.petitioncrown.com/spare15_LK47.html)
The story began in Switzerland when I received a call from a friend at a Bank who reminded me of a collector in Manchester whom he said had many remarkable coins in his collection and they would be sold. It is too long a story to tell today, my dear friend was articulate and had a ledger were he kept the outline details of what he had acquired. As I scanned down the list there was written Philip & Mary 50?000 gbp I asked what was it ?, the entry was as stark as that. It could have been? No it could not I thought an incredible Half Angel? true before you ask I thought it could be possible the illusive Philip & Mary 2/6d.
Whatever it was, it was not going to be seen that day or for several months, it was not in the coin boxes. My heart which was pounding was not going to be settled at least this day. Four more times I visited my friend as I was lucky to chose a number of coins to join my collection but no appearance of the mysterious Philip & Mary coin. My dreams continued I lived in hope and started doing research just in case, weights, photographs, reports, cast copies anything and everything to do what I gave a knick-name. The coin did not surface therefore it was just a dream.
One day I visited my friend and he told me the coins had gone and were being sold, a feeling of disappointment. By this time I had accepted that Philip & Mary was either a mistake, it would remain a mystery the entry in his ledger 50?000 gbp. It would for always remain a mystery. As we finished tea my friend said ?Oh! I nearly forgot I took two coins out for you?, I found the Philip & Mary. If a heart could stop it did, in front of me were two coin envelopes. One had a Philip and Mary coin in it and the other no idea. There are not many times I am lost for words, as I write this story which is still lacking in colour I was speechless and without colour in my face.
It was the time for, I wonder, is it possible, a mistake in the amount of money, is it a shilling the many thoughts that run through the head. I was handed the two coin envelopes by weight one was light enough to be a ?shilling? the other heavy enough to be a ?2/6?.

Now, and please believe what I write to paper, I opened ONE of the envelopes my hands moving like at slow speed, wondering, questioning with anticipation as the coin slipped from the envelope was the Philips head with the date below! This was the beginning of a ?fairy tale? come true that only a true collector can even dream. Yes for sure there is more to tell ----
