I used to like chips with my SPAM and maybe an egg or 2. I then found that SPAM did not agree with me and decided to stop eating SPAM as I preferred corned beef, but not with eggs. SPAM is not good for you Sir, but eggs are. I can therefore offer you a large amount of SPAM if you are interested in my offer?

Indeed. It just so happens that I have a broken PC and some spare cash free for fixing it (however much it costs). Could you give me a quote perhaps, or give me some ballpark idea of how much I'd have to pay? (This is a serious enquiry by the way.)

Very cool. He seems to have missed the 1997 Crown though, with Prince Philip on :lol:

More seriously he has missed all the lion-on-crown sixpences and shillings of Geo V and Ed VII, not to mention the lion shillings of Geo VI and Eliz II, the horse and dragon on 1935 and 1951 crowns, and the lion and unicorn on the 1937 Crown.

To be fair it's obviously a work in progress, which by it's nature is probably impossible to complete. He has a big "wants" list plus a request for info on coins he doesn't know about

Nice site to recommend to youngsters wanting a cheap area to collect

Here's a link which might be useful to all. The British library is putting the newspapers online from the 1800s to present, although subscription based.

That is a superb resource.

Disitations must be so easy for today's students.

I might treat myself over the Xmas holidays to a couple of days.Hopefully every school and library will take a full subscription. :)

It looks a great resource, i'm going to give it a few more months and then take out a years subscription so i can read some history as it actually happened, IE: Jack the Ripper story, Tay Rail Bridge disaster amoungst others

EDIT: well it actually gave me a freebie on the Tay rail disaster, but surveying the same page i came across this piece which states:

The Licences for dogs, carraiges and MALE SERVANTS must be renewed by the end of the year.........Brilliant, didn't realise you needed a dog licence in 1880 lol

If anyone is interested in reading a little bit about the RTay Rail disaster and the operation to find the bodies, it can be found here

http://www1.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000269/18800105/018/0002?browse=false

You need to register to view it, but it's a free page to read

Unfortunately the on I want (The Hackney Gazette) isn't on there. My GG grandfather was dragged out of the River Lea in 1868 - coroner's verdict 'suicide in unsound mind'. Just wanted to see if there was any report on it, but looks like I'll have to wait to see if it's there.

I was listening to the story this morning, they are scanning newspapers over a 10 YEAR period, so perhaps at some point they will get to the one you want Derek.

Didn't know this was here, so put this link elsewhere too.

Lots of old books on coins etc, I like it but there arent many pics to look at.

if it gives a google link hit the http button underneath and then choose the .pdf file, right click and save as.

Good looking website on the soho mint

http://www.sohomint.info/

I was about to comment on the awful quality of their coin for the 'third coinage' until I moused over the image! Quite a clever idea, and one that could be used to show subtle die variations in other coins. Overlaying the two 1905 pennies, for example.

I am saying nothing about this site. Except perhaps typing in the words coins, tokens, coinage, seem to has a marvelous effect :lol: .
