Welcome nik Any date or you can describe all the word and incription if that it all those expert will have a hard time identifyng it. As rob said a picture will help, they can identify it very easily.

Is fake coin found in circulation in the book? In the past I tried to exchange coins from holiday in dublin airport the staff always returning it. Stuborn as I am tried it more than 3 times I guess it is a fake seen some post in this forum.

We will ask the moderator why, thier are some safety features in this site I dont know if that affect the login

Thats a good place to go for fresh air any river or wishing well in there. Good to hear those info any chance you will hang or stay in this site and recommend to you other metal detector hobbyist about this site. There are many expert and numismatics in this site but they do specialised in GB.

Welcome german.

Welcome melody If your grandma found coins on that area and also you its up to you to find more on its suroundings thats my opinion and maybe go deeper search in the area or underneath the ground for it might be a colonie of celtic or anglo saxon before the roman arrive and do you chart your coin where did you found them it could be a historical site a battle site where roman drop thier coin doing battle or a haven or colonie. Lucky you have found a roman coin in GB.

It is listed and also your full name in CCGB 2007, noted that you first shown it to this forum congrats to you and others.

Thanks scott So another publicity made by the US and other publicity to gain support and public funds. So many bronze coins survive but the number that is missing is unaccounted. The commomwealth nation before they have thier independece what bronze coin they are using and who minted those coin did their coin came from GB or they have thier own mint for bronze coin.

Yes people lost coins specially the small denomination on predecimal coins. But on pre 2 world war for me is fewer because their are some cities destroyed during the war and if Im not mistaken that the ruble was placed on a land fill how may homes, offices and bank during that time may also have a number of coins in different denominations but most probable the small denomination put on a jar or a tin for thier value is small and no purchasing power like the penny or half penny,If other survive brought by people going to the countryside to avoid the bombing and survived before decimalization hope they dont trow the small denomination in a skip to another land fill with plastic rubbish in it.

Kind of thinking this tread and post,in 1943 copper usage in US drop upto a point to the creation of steal cent,but on freeman they still produce bronze coins in the 1940 in GB but different in composition for some metal came from asia, Im just wondering or speculating how did GB gets its copper supply during the war for most of the mainland europe is under the nazis and on the other side US is in short supply,it is possible that other date of copper and bronze are melted but not recorded there is a junk shop or scrap yard on that time to melt those bronze and beside copper is needed for war as bullets and others. It might be possible that thier is very few of them left and the nicer ones left are those coins that the collectors collect and kept before and after the first and second world war.and the bulk that comes out in the market is the hoard of others but other dates and denomination is already melted. I cant see the flow how GB produce a bronze coin. that US on the far side atlantic and wide land north and south america to mine came in short supply,and GB cant access mainland europe where GB gets its copper for the 1940s and go at war at the same time.

Thanks I think cud is different from blob or filled die for cud is on the side and on the edge or rim of the coin and I dont know how or what made it, I think is the process for making the coin and the new technology that the mint of the world is using now the other error in the past may not be the same as the error from the present or the rate of error is minimal thats for me. And variety in the US they are variety about DOUBLE DIE dint known a book in GB and ireland who have this kind of book, the nearest comparison is the hard metal of copper from late 1860 downward that needed to be strike twice an imprint, thats in Freeman I dont know but its almost if not a double strike itself,Well thier is still several millions of coins not use in circulation from 1970 downward and the currency they are using now they can encounter some error on how often that is still in the process.happy hunting to all.

Picture well help a lot.for the expert.

Thanks hussulo. I always check my change both notes and coins well the currency here is euro while in GB is pound and the thing is there are books for notes and coins in GB for error and variety,but in euro some in different language not in english. Very common is blob,found some other minor error.but on variety a dead end for ireland one obverse and one reverse no mintmark either. First thing I check if it is rotated found some but not 90 or 180 degrees.then if there is a filled die on both side then the edge if it is wrong flan.I surf site in the past who have picture on it to compare,and also have to know the normal one from the error. For me it is nice to see different coin from normal in circulation for the time before it arrived to me.for someone maybe noticed it but didnt bother or didnt notice at all.

Thank you to all. Im trying to have some book for bronzed for other have a bit of information or data that is not listed to other book. so peck book is most on 1860 downwards while freeman goes upto 1983.that is a big help for Im 1900 up. IM not to online so I order by mail while other site dont accept email or block for the protection of thier computer thank you for the list of site. And there is always this forum that other expert have a comprehensive notes and collection of thier own but owning a book have some good points also browsing and posting from this forum for me two different things on its own.

Thanks for the info I think I saw it in the past.

Well the error is been there and out, about the authentication on coins that is selling on ebay and sold in the past by other dealers I dont know how to regognize them, the expert can. There are many world errors in mikes site worth thousands of dollar while GB error raw are not that expensive. In the past Im looking for error in ciculation but now I found out that major error and expensive is very remote to find one in circulation for I may think that major error is for those people who have an interest in getting them or collecting them. +

Is there any dealers in UK that others can order? Also about cooke book on bronzed and copper. and any dealer still selling peck book.

Encounter some pierce in potatoe some by soaking it to olive oil. and onced cleaned its grade lower or catagories as cleaned coin I dont know.

Or the people are still inside the mint or move its rank and influece thats is not good for the mint for they are guardian of that institution.

Thanks mint. I do visist that site and its links and use search engine but book as comprehensive like Freeman I didnt encounter or made regarding irish coin.

Only variety in ireland I know is chickless 1942 and 1968 and a mule of 1961. Those someone know any book? Seen some coins slightly rotated a minor error Seen some coin like a mechanical doubling but dont know if thier is a double die exist in ireland coin before it became Euro.

Nice error it is slab and expensive. Also how did it come out in the mint?

Thank you Tom. To gary thats how it looks like,looks neat and very orderly.

Well favorable storage to beginners,amateur, to expert and proffesional. To worn circulated like mine to uncirculated to proof like others. To new find in circulation to rare and expensive ancient and medievial For us amateur where do we start. and what what is the storage for plastic and mahogany and how far is there expense or price from each other.

Many expert have superb collection I dont. I use coin flip and plastic album and coin tray to my budget allows.
