    Coin prices continue to rise

    I assume all those 'desig's are American? They are the only collectors who seem even remotely interested whether a coin is 'red' (by which they mean yellow/orange of course), 'red/brown', or 'brown'.

    Coin prices continue to rise

    can you decipher those "desig"s? I infer that PF stands for 'proof' but what the hell is the rest of it?

    1867 Penny F53 6+G , UNC.

    Yeah - 1864 is also very tough in higher grades.

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Feedback of 90% says it all really.
  5. that looks as though it COULD be a 3/2?

    is that the very rare 'lighthouse on lighthouse' variety? 😆

    I saw that. I don't smell a rat, I smell a dead heffalump...

    Possible error.

    Possibly you meant it IS an error? But not a fake.

    VIP proof? (Very Improbable Price)

    Using acetone to clean coins

    Presumably surgical spirit - being clear - doesn't have any dye problem?

    Useful Advice

    It's not entirely 'cached' - yes, that's part of the reason, but it's mainlyt down to the fact that your browser is running the site a bit "behind". As you say, refreshing the page should resolve things, but having said that I've never had a problem with Noonans where the video shows separately from the lot information and two appear to be in sync.

    Possible Variety 1962 penny

    my thought is that it's a striking error at the Mint (misstrike) ... but if there's only the one, it's not likely to command a premium and wouldn't be considered a 'variety' as such.

    1698 Half penny

    Nice finds!

    I know! Gobsmacked is an understatement of how I feel..

    More Pennies

    I'd go for a grade of AUNC on that reverse - it may in fact be UNC but the 'lustre wear' together with the fact that it's a slightly weaker strike than the obverse would make me downgrade it a little.

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    It also just "looks" wrong, on an intuitive level.

    That's in a pretty good grade too...

    SCARCE 1956 Halfpenny

    How do you know all this?

    SCARCE 1956 Halfpenny

    I would have been tempted but I bought one off Gary some years back. If you ever have this obverse with the normal reverse for sale ... let me know!!

    Error Code?

    Windows appeared in the 80s! And the first useful version 3.1, was 1990?
