I thought you would have found my half penny more amusing....I feel sorry for us half penny collectors we lack the lustre of the spend a penny guys

Hi Cliff, hope all well with you. Over the years I have seen several YH pennies with similar weak dates. Here are some examples

Some heathen humour 😁

About three weeks ago a leaflet came through the post with all details about how !st and second class stamps have to be used by the end oof the year . Having built up a little collection of first class stamps over the last three years or so (84 stamps to be exact) I thought about this for a while and in the end decided to send off my stamps to be changed into new ones. BAD CALL PETER , it promised on the leaflet that my stamps would be with me in a week (that was three weeks ago) and I have knowhere to complain to or to chase up my stamps. I surpose the old post office would not have been any better , so things never change. It really does annoy me that companies like this hold you too ransom then apparently steal their own product back I will of course keep you up to date and apogise if the stamps arrive - i really think the high street post offices should have been given this job

That was a brilliant sketch.

yeah unless there is a good reason to pick up an F ( only if the lower limb was in good order) I cannot see why an E would not be just an E over an E. In the half penny overstamps it happens all the time. Usually the lower limb blocks and all that remains is something like an F ...then they overstamp with an E . I have listed many on the half penny thread . Larry I think it is listed as an F over an E because it sound more erroneous and therefore they think it is worth more

My wife constantly complains how everything is monetised now, and how there are no staff running a business any more- we do their job for them, and put up with this sort of crap....

I had an email from the idiot, and he suggested that I only posted this because I have too much time on my hands. The uninformed twat doesn't realise that no-one on the forum has time to waste being ripped off....typical unprofessional seller- everyone's a bloody expert nowadays, when actually real experts are thin on the ground. And on this forum.

Thanks for the detailed stat research, big thumb up👍

Now added - thanks Mike.
