    This jokers been selling bad fake anglo saxon coins for ages. Items dispatch from Madrid in Thailand??? This ones one of the more laughable ones. A Gold Pax Penny of Harold II. Please feel free to report it and the rest of his Anglo saxon stock. Thanks. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ANGLO-SAXON-York-Harold-II-PAX-GOLD-transaction-half-penny-AU/273067358447

    They are called privy marks. Wikipedia on privy marks "Originally a small mark or differentiation in the design of a coin for the purpose of identifying the mint, moneyer, or some other aspect of the coins production or origin, for control purposes." Some more information here about privy marks on Henry VI coins. http://www.vosper4coins.co.uk/ivanbuck/Buck-3.htm

    Two pennies glued together.

    Yes thanks. It arrived on Tuesday. Quite nice. I may get the sixpence to join my sixpence collection.

    Great find. Well done!

    Good move. The 5 big dark coins all look like modern reproductions. Even with the low light background he's tried to photograph them under they scream fake.

    £5 -£9. I got a VF beauty class 2b of Bristol last November for £30.

    They were all spurious. I think one of lads who posts on here made one himself with a grinder to show how easily it was done. They are basically worthless they may even be rejected as legal tender by some places as they are classed as defaced currency.

    Bizarre indeed. Makes you wonder what he's been getting up to in those bushes he's so fond of photographing. 😨

    You'd also need to pickle the coins once the mounts are removed to remove the heat marks thus leaving you with bright shiny clean coins which added on top of the mounting marks put them into the realms of scrap value.
  15. Ukstu
    List as is. People buy these items as jewellery still. It's not worth the hassle of removing them as they will still have mounting marks. Weigh them also and see what you'd get for scrap silver. Listing the weight on eBay will aid the sale also if someone just wants them for scrap value.

    Looks like a grot. Probably a follis of Vespasian I think judging by the profile.

    Good work. Here is a website listing the weights of fanam coins. Yours is right bang on. https://taxfreegold.co.uk/indianfanams.html

    Where did you acquire it from if you don't mind me asking?
  19. Ukstu
    Ordered mate. I collect silver pennies. It's not Maundy but they look great. Never know they may become sought after in the future for 18th or 21st BD presents and for £18 it's well worth the gamble. Thanks.
  20. Ukstu
    I might get one meself. How much was the p&p mate? Thanks.

    Thanks for feedback. I am running Android devices to view the site. I'll look around on play store for a popup closer. 👍

    There is also Christopher Eimer. Probably the most knowledgeable guy around in regards to commemorative medals. https://www.christophereimer.co.uk

    I've been getting plagued by popups just as i try to move on from here. Only on here no other websites. Asda popups mainly. Anyone else had similar issues? Just happened again only this time it was an Amazon popup. It opened up fully. Ps i have no problem with the site putting ads up , just want to be sure I've not picked up some malware along the way.

    Brilliant ha ha. 😂 Bit sloppy of the BBC to leave those lying around. Definitely new to the hobby if they didn't recognise a bunch of reps from the Lord WestAir collection. Still a funny story though. Classic 😂
  25. Ukstu
    I think that's correct. Pieres is sometimes also seen as Peris on Roxburgh coins of Alexander II. Spink ref : 1536.
