Ssssshhhh Mike, I have a sealed tube of them from the first day, 15th Feb, 1971......yours for £72K. Don't tell anyone....1 point

Have you managed to get one of them? Crikey, some people have all the luck1 point

Yes, sorry Fred, as Jerry says, I thought you meant British Penny 1860 beaded border, which you did but in the sense of Gouby's BB reference.1 point

‘Fraid so, looks like an ordinary F6. But still a nice example. I think you were misunderstood, you were thought to be asking if it was an 1860 BB ie beaded border, rather than the Gouby reference. Jerry1 point

Nice coin Hazelman. Maybe nvf at a guess.1 point

Maybe a better way of putting it would be:- "If this coin proves not be genuine as advertised, we guarantee to refund the purchase price if returned within 10 years from the date of sale, with receipt, and convincing evidence to support the assertion" Bit wordier, but infinitely more logical.1 point

As Bob says, yes, definitely. It's a F6.1 point

Agreed, Mike- it's all going into my 1909 ident file....thanks Terry!1 point

Some great pointers from Terry though, which reduce the reliance on judging whether the 1 is over a tooth, as the only determinant of whether the 1909 is a 169 or not.1 point
-
I'm not so sure. Though the First 1in the date looks to be to the tooth, other pointers look incorrect . The rim on the 169 is more raised up with the teeth usually intact even on a worn coin, also the space between the 1 and 9 is narrower, and the sea on the right hand side runs onto a tooth where as on the 168 its to the gap between the teeth. sorry.1 point

Why should the truth get in the way of a good story?1 point

I've had them vanish as well. Very odd and somewhat inexplicable. I don't take too much notice of what the media say about coins. It's obvious they don't really know their ACAS from their Nalgo. But I thought I would post the link for its amusement qualities.1 point

At least my Mother in Law is out of hospital having swallowed the 1927 florin I had put in the mix bowl. I had told her that the Proof was in the Pudding, but i think she misunderstood....1 point

I’ve been waiting 365 days to say “Happy New Year” since I had so much fun saying it last year. Happy New Year, to all of you on the forum😃 “Here’s to a bright New Year and a fond farewell to the old; here’s to the things that are yet to come, and to the memories that we hold.”1 point
