Members on the forum now and again post links to useful websites for reading or for other coin related matter. I hope i can start this thread just for links where people can post useful sites for other members, so here is the 1st site, all about forgeries.

This should interest those of you using pound coins....

Coin handling equipment company, Willings Services Ltd, have posted on to the web a catalogue of the counterfeit one-pound coins they have identified PDF FORM

And again, a little something on Pound coin fakes

I posted this before on the 'previous' site and still find it useful (though they have reduced the information available for free).

CoinArchives.com lists recent auction information which you can search. If you need more than one term, link with 'and' (for example '1933 and penny') and see what comes up. I use it to check prices of coins and find pictures of things I might be interested in.
Rare Charles I shillings wanted cheap!

This site looks potentially useful. I think the prices may be somewhat out of date, but all the different types are listed sequentially.

Useful link, that first one!

Unfortunately the second one is only of interest to hammered enthusiasts.

Although it says "hammered coins", it does in fact list most or all UK coin fairs. Take a look.

You're right - how confusing! (Unfortunately the Phoenix Fairs aren't listed, which are the only fairs in this part of the country)

A useful link, but bear in mind that it isn't kept up to date regularly. For instance, World Coins (aka David Mason, aka MEGHAN) hasn't had a shop in Canterbury for about 5 years, ever since he decamped to Spain. Also, the last time I went to the Worthing Coin Shop was about 10 years ago and they had virtually nothing there and may not even exist now. The guy there looked incredulous when I went in and asked about his stock!!!

Well, if you think about it, not really. Most coin fairs will feature all types of coins, milled as well as hammered. Ergo: the diary is relevant to all enthusiasts.

Yes, I suppose that's always going to be the problem with a list of that nature & length, Dave. They date very quickly as changes occur in the real world, whilst they stay frozen at a fixed point in time.

Ah, no, it wasn't the diary itself that is confusing 1949 - I meant the name! Why call it "Hammered" when it's relevant to all collectors?

Here's one that 400 posted, a site for detector finds, if that's your interest, or perhaps you found something.
