Re: Le Cercle Part 1 History/trivia
In Response To: Le Cercle sale cancelled. ()

No, not for sale just yet, it's opinion time on first plaque please if want to help and join in and another to follow as I obviously need the help, I will try to show all to make it interesting but if it gets monotonous I'll try harder. It's for me yet again, so selfish, and help too. You know why I'm doing this, nah don't care do you. Yet again, jealousy reared it's ugly head so I need to try to establish fact, assumption and speculation to try to show the whole story as known by us which will hopefully, if enough (like us) imagination used even a little bit, doesn't stretch it that far in my tiny mind (free shot to make up for my last 2 in earlier post), but that's me so opinions. Enough experts here to maybe feel like helping (I know, I deserve none of it, who does) 4 or 5 grades to show so easy to see I hope.If there is a grading like mine then great, mine is tailored too and logical to me so it works for me, I like to think, others have theirs, all happy, But tips,......................
Best of the lot, in my opinion only of course, I call it the Dog's bits but hey usually wrong so please advise about first one, enjoy.


Bad picture, sorry......upside down too?


Faults include as seen, point out and I will give my reasons and answer, thanks.


so the back should be...?

There were only 2 of these on the Baccarat table and James had both. 3rd most important in my eyes in the film, agree, for scene value.
So grades please and I will add our hypotheses for discussion too.
Thing to do next is............
Either very good fakes or original, nothing inbetween is there. So more provenance needed to establish which. Style, touch, smell, company made if possible but hey. Ideas, my hypothesis and rumour mixed with common sense being in the business and other stuff too. How, why, who.... next maybe. Uneducated sleuthing so any rebuttals or help. Only numbered up to 100 I believe and a lot of cash then obviously.

£100 next I hope, the main player.

Ambitious as always, yes too complicated but hopefully if for once I get something right, it should be seen better and then understood that when you buy a plaque, jeton, whatever especially last one left of a group. Wouldn't it be nice if we were older, oh sorry bathroom not here they were graded so if first then obviously best (of course except in my case) and when down to last few, they said, only grade 4 left insetad of stiffing you with some warped rubbish, not a leg to stand on and so just leave it, swallow the loss. Hence my type of grading, ok, sorry.
£500s from this series, top value and as seen in James Bond ,Dr No as I bet you are sick of hearing about by now but when Bond stands up watch his plaques, hands and position of plaques, also during the game, he went from £100 x1 at bottom and then £200 yes? Different takes so the picking up and passing to cash lad when leaving were different too. Never noticed before. Opinion? Do you get what I mean or am I talking to myself again? Just nod or not, thanks, still with me.
