    Thanks, I've emailed.

    I don't think I have your email address. I'm on air in Luton from 3-4pm, but it'll probably run over as it usually does. How long is MK to Luton? Tell you what, how about Toddington services South bound about 4.15? That way, we'll already be out of town and on the M1 (it's easy to turn around to face either direction from Toddington services) If all works out, I'll let you have the Shilling for whatever I pay for it Rob.
  3. Chris Perkins
    Yes, there it is.

    Do you fancy coming down to Luton and being on the radio with them while I look them over? I do a coin phone in on BBC 3CR, and Luton looks to be about half way. I'll be there Friday 4th Nov from about 3pm. You'll trust I'm honest that way, or I'd be lying to a quarter of a million people at the same time Email me (cp@predecimal.com) for details. And, that was the funniest typo I've seen for ages. I'll leave it un edited just for its comic value!

    Do you want it Rob? If not, I probably wouldn't mind.
  6. Chris Perkins
    You mean the blue Anglia 105E?
  7. Chris Perkins
    Yes, it was certainly that area, but I'm quite sure my distant cousins (possibly) the current Lord and Lady of Lothian are far removed from that sort of behavior.
  8. Chris Perkins
    Yes, absolutely! EUR10,00 and I'll post it airmail to you.....You have the address?
  9. Chris Perkins
    You are the worlds biggest tart! Geordie, the Reivers? What's a Reiver?

    Not as far as I know! The last Kerr in my line was Annie Jane Kerr, who married a Perkins in 1892.....Thankfully I don't think the awful name 'Wayne' was invented at that time.
  11. Chris Perkins
    Well I never. I've been doing some family history research, and today, I just found out that my Great Great Great Grandparents were Scottish! I don't know what the Husband was called yet, but the wife was called Jane Kerr. So now I have a tartan and everything! I was thinking of getting a small army together to re-claim my 'Kerr' ancestral home, which is this castle: http://www.discovertheborders.co.uk/places...ges/1101-1.html Who wants to help?
  12. Chris Perkins
    That was almost a year ago!

    Depends on condition. You can't go wrong for £1 each though, they should at least be worth double that if they're all readable.

    The head side is the obverse. (the most logical thing in the world). Sounds like one of these: http://www.predecimal.com/forsale/11/shilling1887c.jpg That's a shilling. The size (in mm) is the most important thing now!
  15. Chris Perkins
    Do they look like this: http://www.predecimal.com/forsale/11/halfc...fcrown1887e.jpg (that's a half crown)
  16. Chris Perkins
    Yes, those bloody spoof emails claiming to be from ebay (and often paypal and some banks) annoy me more than spam at the moment.
  17. Chris Perkins
    The answer is almost certainly not a lot. All are common dates, and if in avergae circulated you may as well give them to charity. There's a little silver there, but nothing to write home about. There is a rarer lower tide reverse for the 1902 penny, but even that in low/average grade is not very special. Condition is the key, and collectors want them as near as possible to perfect!
  18. Chris Perkins
    Always good to hear. They must get them either from Barrington Smith in Leeds, or Vera Trinder in London. They both sell to collecting related shops.
  19. Chris Perkins
    I've got the books! 1500 copies to me in Germany first. The rest will go to a warehouse in England. They look good, but annoyingly, the cover is still not as thick as I would have liked due to the printers using a new laminating firm. Still, the quality is much better than the last edition.
  20. Chris Perkins
    Is that even for coins over 100 years old? I suppose that also means that when you buy or sell a coin within the UK, that the price includes 5% VAT. That's interesting info to put in the 2007 CCGB actually!
  21. Chris Perkins
    Did you! Where did you get it from?
  22. Chris Perkins
    Yes, I'll certainly have some with me then. Good idea.
  23. Chris Perkins
    Delivery from the printers is expected Wednesday. I know Unknown wants one, hopefully a few more folk will too. http://www.predecimal.com/books/ccgb2006framed.htm Special cash offer....Send a £5 note (Eng or Scot!) with your address and I'll post one via surface mail from Germany. Or, other payment methods are accepted in the book section of the main predecimal.com C Perkins Hauptstrasse 33 Burkhardtsdorf 09235 GERMANY

    Ssteve, my very good gay friend!!! What the &*%! are you doing in here?!! You'll have to change your name now you've got rid of your Ssanyong. I'm in the UK for the radio prog and a coin fair 31st Oct - 7th Nov.....You got room on your Rochester farm residence for me between those dates? I was going to text, so this'll save me about 40 cents! I haven't forgotten I owe Mark £20 (even if he has).
  25. Chris Perkins
    And even high value items too....The UK customs are far far more lax than some other countries. From experience, the German 'Zoll' are all gits!
