  1. I currently store my coins in 2 x 2 flips however I am thinking of changing over to capsules. On another thread I see some of you use Quadrum capsules which I like the idea of as I can remove the coins at any time if I want to (photographing etc) I came across Quickslab capsules which I quite like as there is a space to add reference/notes about the coin. Do any of you use these or have any experience of these, good or bad? thanks

    Is this a good buy?

    Someone selling a bulk lot of coins local to me. Described as 2000 coins 15kg approx mainly English from 1807 onwards. Photos are poor but appears to include about 300 pennies and the same half pennies. He's asking £75 for the lot Is that a reasonable price? I plan to go and look at them so any tips on what I should look out for Thanks

    problem posting

    Tried on desktop pc at work and laptop at home. Ads are there filling the screen. Doesn't make any difference using chrome or IE, logged in or out, same thing. If I were a newbie looking for a forum to join I would be clicking away looking elsewhere. Not good and needs sorting quickly as others have said. Btw using my mobile (android) it's fine no ads at all but a pain in the a*** typing a longish post like this.

    Please send me £499 and I will sign up to cgs (or whatever they are called now) and I can then view your collection and then decide if my collection is better than yours.

    It appears that Bill has closed the group and all previous posts have been removed. Shame really as there was a lot of information on there about the cgs saga.

    1966 missing waves

    Having seen yours Richard on your site I wasn't sure if mine were given how much was missing on yours. When I saw Terry's looked very similar to mine I realised what I had.

    1966 missing waves

    The 67 I found is a little better grade than the 66 but still not as good as your 66 Still better than not having one I suppose

    1966 missing waves

    Old thread i know but whilst going through my 1960's pennies looking for wavy exergues I came across this. Not as high grade as Terry's but never mind. Also found a 1967 missing wave too.
  15. Good on you and pleased to hear no come back on you for saving the poor dog who may well have died if left alone. During this hot spell it's been early mornings and late evening walks for my pair.

    Wow you are certainly on a mission. Can't comment on grade or value sorry but if it was me spending that sort of money I would want to see them before parting with my money. Note that seller says returns not accepted Just my opinion but your call at the end of the day

    BIT OF AN INTEREST

    Well that was a bit fun while it lasted, better than some of the footy matches and good "prizes" on offer. Shame nobody won (like me) I thought it was a good idea of Petes to try and generate a bit of interest and it did for me. Well done Pete So what do you reckon to keep things going how about some thing like state the bonus ball on the lottery to win the prizes (assuming prize donors still willing) or maybe something else?

    Can't comment on "silver" as I don't collect it myself but it does look good. That said I do have a 1951 boxed crown if you are interested would sell for £10 if you are interested
