Not sure if this will be of interest to anyone but got this in my change this morning. It's the correct diameter and weight with the graining and edge lettering perfect, at first glance I thought it was a weak strike but the coin feels 'greasy' and has no ring to it at all when flipped.

How long does it take? Are we talking days or weeks?

I saw the title 'Slabbed Potter' and thought have they released a harry potter coin now???

Hello there, all one and two penny coins minted from 1992 onwards are copper plated steel and the coin you have is a standard two pence which is missing it's full coat of copper. I have an example of a penny in my collection which has no copper coating at all. Hope this helps

Me too

There's at least two with the wrl stamp, I've reported them too

I can't understand how he's kept his 100% feedback if he's done this in the past

I've reported it too, if we keep bombarding eBay they might do something

At least the one your really wanted is ok, you can always upgrade the others -
There's a very good altered '1933' penny on the bay at the moment, it's the only one I'll ever be able to afford! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BRITAIN-GEORGE-V-1933-PENNY-PRO-ALTERATION-TOOLED-/201995428787?hash=item2f07dda3b3:g:UjMAAOSwY~VZdIq8

I'm trying to identify the planchet which this penny has been minted on so I can add one to my collection for reference. Weight is 2.6 grams 20mm diameter brass and non magnetic

I did wonder that but all the ones I've seen are larger and of white metal

I realise this is a long shot with the name 'St Johns' being so common but I bought this at a local flea fair hoping it was an unofficial farthing. It's not in the catalogue as one but is the same size etc and it now has me intrigued, any suggestions welcome. Blank reverse apart from a beaded border

There's a very similar design on a modern Eastern Caribbean coin as the obverse of the 'two shilling' but I can't recall the denomination at the moment

finally happy with the resizing!

Well that was simple! Thank you very much Ian, I was obviously looking in the wrong place

I would welcome any thoughts or suggestions on what this might be, £5 coin size and weight, plain edge. I emailed the RM but they wasn't very helpful and just said it's out of a proof set. The spiral of letters and numbers appear to have been engraved prior to striking
