Yeah, my friend at school had a Gibraltar £1 coin, which he was using to buy his lunch, and asked me if i could identify it. So i told him what it was, and that it's illegal in this country, but he still managed to pass it off as an English one!!

How regularly do you visit them?

True!

Does anyone collect banknotes(i don't!! ) I have a George V banknote which i can't identify. At the top it reads Just underneath that, it says but someone seems to have on top of that in (what i think is) Arabic. Under that, in the centre of the note, in very large lettering is Underneath that it reads Over that is more Arabic! Underneath that on the left is written (in extremely large writing) 10/-. Next to that it reads Y22, and then it says Next to that number it reads and underneath that, On the other side, someone has written Can anybody identify this note, or even value it?! Thanks, William.

No, it's a living nightmare!!

Is it worth it, when you can never see them?

Have you seen some of the rubbish grading on ebay! I have listed several on this site somewhere, and so have many other people!!

Collecting pebbles.....what's the point?!

Yeah, i tried reading it, but got bored!!

Thanks, i'll be careful!!

Thanks, I may be able to post a picture if that helps.

I have a beautiful half crown dated 1883. It is a prooflike EF, but unfortunately has been used as a brooch in the past. On the obverse there are clear raised parts where someone must have attached a pin. I just wanted to know how much it would be worth now, and if there is any way I could remove the raised parts on the obverse. Thanks, William.

Yeah.....the expensive way!!

But the one on Mint marks site was $96!!

Sylvester, I have two 1961 6ds, and two 1963 ones. Neither of them are BU though...

Great, I'm going there on holiday this year!!

Yes, one of my all time favourite coins!

Thanks for the tip, Raoul. I'll try, and give you the *results*!

I collect Victorian coins. I also have one of those dark farthings which Mark likes. Beautiful coin (1901, UNC )

What is an ultrasonic cleaner? Thanks.

Just saying 'yanks' works for me!!

Thanks

I have a metal detector!! What sort of places should i look for coins then, Raoul?

Great. Stick around!(unlike a lot of people, who just register and leave )
