I do not go to fairs as there are none near me. I order mainly off the internet, off sites where i can trust that the item will be as described *points at Chris*. I sometimes go into the odd coin or antique shop to have a look as well.

I am also not doing that. I wouldn't know where to look or where to begin.

Sailors...

I did watch it, along with 4 billion others...... Tim Henman did well didn't he?! Mind you, our sailors are doing really well....

Yes, I also thought thatit was Britannia in the Chariot, not Boudicea. I mean, why have a Britannia coin, if Britannia's not on it??

I would get one, but I don't have a mobile (parents )

Almost, it's really for coins that you've bought or have seen sold at £X. As you can see JMD, Oli, HPJ etc have entered coins they've bought and a few coins they're seen sold on ebay. It's just a general database to help out with the book prices. Combined with Marles prices and your individual price scouting it all helps out. JMD: What do you mean it's tatty!!!? It looked worse than that before I tidied it up and it doesn't have to be pretty. You're 14 now aren't you....At that age Chris would you rather I entered the prices I find into the database instead of emailing it to you, seeing as everyone else has?

Happy Birthday!! Have a great day JMD!

Welcome Jimmy.

I love Victoria Young Head shield reverse things - crowns, and especially gold! I would seel lots of my coins for that. I personally think the Victorian young head is the best effigy EVAR!!

I am trying to upload a .swf avatar, but when I upload it, it says I have not uploaded an avatar, and it comes up blank. Does anyone know why this is, and how to fix it? Thanks. William.

I think so....

Really? I think this one was quite hard compared to some of the other ones!

Yeah....

I get coin news, and i also have this months issue. Jons right; it is pretty good. they have an insight on a particular coin every issue. There was an interesting one on Victorian Bun Head halfpennies recently. There is a price guide too, and a collectors page, where collectors tell people about things that have happened to them regarding numismatics. For example, there was one recently where a man had gone into a coin shop and put on some magnifying glasses and thought the shillings were half crowns!

Halo thar all new members yar lol

ok, these wont be woth very much, unless they are in perfect condition, about 50p each maybe. The 50p coins i am not sure about. they are probably commemoratives. Could you describe the design on them or post a picture?

Yes, happy birthday Sylvester! And what coin is it that you are sending off for then?

Although i like doing gothic florins, there is alot of them!

Chris, do you want me to do double florins as well? I am happy doing them, if you like....

Exactly what do you want us to do Chris? Collect some prices from different places and tell you the price and where we got them?

Hmm, i like the sound of florins, they started in Victorian times, so i collect them. I also really like flroins, one of my favourite denominations, plus i could manage the ones later than Victoria cos i have collected them in the past as well. Would i be able to do the florins?

wow, good thing lobel didnt buy it then! Btw, chris, i obviously don't listen to 'real music'

I also have a forgery of a spade guinea!

Erm, Chris, thats where i come in... I'll be a mod!!!!!
