    1858 Pennies ?

    Sorry is the date size and width size a normal difference for a 58 penny?
  3. Any denomination that is victoria .
  4. Scott nice pic of the 6 on the penny, and colin just checked the 43 farthing and sorry no it's not the I for 1 in date. It's a md find in poor condition but clear date and scott this one i have is a clear 4 over 4 just like you have pictured above.
  5. On the 1843 varieties of the farthings, how rare are the 1843(I for ) variety?
  6. Hi guys just got a delivery of coins i won in auction, nothing really interesting bar this coin. Any ideas, thanks jim.
  7. Good point RCHRIS, I've had a good look at this coin, where the cut is there is no rough edges also the cut edge of the coin is the same colour as the main of the coin. Would a larger or clearer image help in any way, thanks jim.
  8. Thanks NORDLE is this common or quite rare mint error? And how does this actually happen to the coin.
  9. Thanks guys for the great info, i know about the 20p piece dated 2012 with tear drops it has been named TEARS OF THE QUEEN. So can i name this coin THE QUEEN OF ALL BOILS, great show cheers jim, oh and let me know if anyone comes across the same coin as above
  10. Would this round blob on this coin just be a one off or would there be x amount of these in circulation. And can any one tell me is this a similar fault to the 1897 o'ne penny flaw?
  11. Hi guys can anyone help ID the date on this rough vic farthing,cheers jim.
  12. Hi guys i'm not really into modern coins, but i do check my change on a daily basis. I do know about the error remember pemember but the one i have the i in fifth has not been cut, so it spells F FTH, is this common, cheers jim.
  13. Haven't got a decent cam at hand but managed to take a couple of images on my phone. Thanks jim.
  14. Looks a bit dodgy be careful.
  15. Thank's guys for your help on this one, i guess i still have to search for an open 3. One more question i didn't know there was a narrow 3 is this rarer than an open 3?.

    I Wanted To Say Hello

    Small world boys i was a pirate on 27 mhz, i was going to do the test in the 80's but bottled out. Stuck with my ham international,sigma 4, a massive beam and a kilo watt, no tv in sunderland when i was on lol.
  17. Just a quick one guy's, can any one tell me how many varieties are there for a 1907 ED penny. Iv'e been looking through many ED penny's and come across this strange 9. It look's different to the other nine's, more shorter and stumpy, thank's jim.
  18. Thank's boy's for the comment's, i did notice the fish tail this is why i couldn't ID it. AC if possible can you find that thread you mentioned.
  19. Hi guy's, just a couple of question's on this very worn 1860 MD find. I know the coin is worthless but i'm struggling to ID the obverse. I believe the reverse is D because of the toothed border, the E in one looks like an F but that will prob's be wear and tear. All comment's welcome, thank's jim. http://i951.photobucket.com/albums/ad357/MACKSILKY/83ec4a8f-0518-4b84-a95b-ebc6c1969d73_zps88f3ceb9.png

    1861 One Penny.

    Another image using a different camera, Earlier this week on ebay a worn vic one penny dated 1861 identical to the one here went for £26, seller listed it as 1861/1 victorian bronze penny- 1 over 1 in date- very collectable. My question is the recut of the one in the date, were they done in quantity, because i can't see them being cut individually?
