Thanks Stu! - PM send - If the scans doesn't work out we'll just have to wait for the sun will show up again at some point... -
What a mission. Think I've managed it. I had limitations with the software not allowing me to scan over 300 dpi. Found a work around and finally after much crashing of my antiquated laptop trying to use the HP software i managed it. It set it to 1200 dpi as that was the highest it could go but the images do not look that great so i don't know. If you could send me a pm with an email address i will send them over. They are 3 mb each. Not going to chance reducing the quality on here to 500kb to get them on as they will look awful and be of no use. If they are no good i will have to try and catch a window of opportunity with the sun to photograph them. We had roughly 25 mins of sun today before it went black again Stu. -
Aha..and as I have read.....it came about due to King Charles I was executed for high treason in 1649, after a civil war pitting his supporters against Parliament for control of the country...... 🤔 -
You won’t need weights for these, you’re bang on with the identification, a pair of Commonwealth (Oliver Cromwell) Halfgroats. I think they’re quite a simple series (very little in the way of varieties), with nothing to add beyond it being a very interesting period of our history. -
when rediscovered. these were put to one side a year ago... I was looking through Spink and happened upon 2 pages 1649-60 commonwealth..... now I have been focused on Edwards, Short crosses, Long Crosses, Voided etc etc but then realised that I had these 2... yes they are rubbed but clear enough..... any thing I may be missing? opinions welcome... (Apologies.... actual weights to follow 👍)
