Yes, it's gone mad. Still, I keep looking. A friend showed me a Celtic gold stater he had found, with the horse on it, probably the most beautiful object I'll ever touch.....

Gaz, what sort of sites do you detect on? I go out sometimes and find bugger all, with a good detector... Is a lot of it down to research before search?

I've just been sent these pics from a friend, who found this coin in her late Mother's estate, so I doubt very much if it's a modern fake. (I've asked for measurements.)

I too have a few on my wife's ebay account at the moment. We are now trying a reasonable start price, and reducing over the weeks till someone goes 'fair enough'. Sometimes that then generates two or three bids. Wading through so many lots is a pain- I didn't see the F76 from Portugal because '1874' wasn't in any description. Whoever found that was either very lucky, or had hours to spare. Not so good for the seller....went very cheaply....

Now, the reason you could read the heading is because it's westernised. A bit like what the French did in Vietnam- they made everyone write words in western characters so they could be pronounced by westerners. So-- 'Feng Shui'.....why not "Fung Shuei", as it's bloody pronounced??? Which is the whole point of giving it a western spelling in the first bloody place!!! It makes no sense whatsoever!! Anyone here have a clue as to what's going on there?
-
Only on the coins, not in real life, obviously.
-
What is?
-
Ahh...right...but maybe any French involvement is a herring rouge, and the 'schwa' is indeed the culprit. It does seem very odd....
-
Very good.

Strange but true - this week, in Milton Keynes, a fireman stuck up a tree was rescued by cats. -
I know, i know...the last thing I always wished I could afford to collect was always Victorian Silver. Now I steer well clear.

I'm not sure you can put more than just text on an Ebay Guide...
