I saw some concerns about low activity on the forum, so I thought I would post this link to my Hammered collection to give people something to talk about. I have gathered these over the last 25 years, with the original intention of one decent coin for each monarch from the Wessex Saxons to the introduction of milled coins. There are some duplicates and associated material in the folder. Any comments, discussions or corrections are welcome! Hammered Paddy

Some cracking coins there! Loving the Anglo-Saxon coinage. I have a few bits and bobs of that myself, but nothing as extensive. I can only muster two line types for Edward the Elder, Athelstan, Eadmund and Eadred, plus a Cnut short cross penny. I too was going down the one from each monarch from Alfred the Great to present.

Awesome collection....Enough Said,

Probably a fine investment home for your cash over the last 30 years as well , few coins have increased as much as say tudor mammered asp the choice high grade examples...

Cracking collection Paddy. Well done !

Nice one, Paddy, well done with that lot! 👏👏

I am also a social media refusenik, so forums like this are my natural habitat. Although I do collect GB bronze and copper, I also like all the GB silver and some older foreign pieces too. Like @Sylvester I found the bias towards bronze and copper pennies a little disappointing. There are some great experts in all areas on here, but we need to encourage them to continue showing up occasionally or the forum will die. I think also, some posters here are a bit aggressive with their criticism if they disagree with a poster's viewpoint, which simply drives them away. Of course we can disagree, but it needs to be kept non-personal.
