    How long have you all been collecting (number of years). I have been collecting since I was 7 or 8 when my Grandad gave me all of his old coins he saved back in 1971 after decimalisation. That means that I have been collecting for 7 years.

    Can you see any lustre on your 1928 halfpenny?
  3. Half Penny Jon
    Do you have that coin or were you just insisting that you would buy it?
  4. Half Penny Jon
    Wow, now that is ambitious. You would be the envy of every numismatist with that coin.

    What coins do you collect Edward?
  6. Half Penny Jon
    It is very hard to believe. In fact, if you look on the colin cooke website, there is an 1841 half penny with full lustre as well as an 1838 with full lustre. My Webpage My Webpage

    Hello everyone, I think we need a what if...... thread just to see what sort of coins peope would buy if we became millionaires. Personally, I would complete the bronze series as best I can and if possible, I would buy every proof set since 1826.

    When I first looked at it, I thought it was UNC lustre with prooflike fields. That is the first time that I have seen an 1841 proof farthing. There is also a silver proof one but those are hardly ever seen.

    I would grade it GF/VF

    It's true, they won't give up their so called 'heritige'. No one over there calles them cents, they are ALWAYS centimes.

    Look's good Oli!

    My faviorite coin is my 1909 BU halfpenny however, I have not got a picture avaliable.
  13. Half Penny Jon
    I think that there should be a photo gallery with a dealor inventory attached so that we could all see a photo of who we are dealing with. (300th post)
  14. Half Penny Jon
    Boooooo! I hate american grading even though it is accurate.
  15. Half Penny Jon
    There are two different varieties for the 1933 penny. The one which resembles all of the other pennies of the period is worth more. The other variety was a pattern.
  16. Half Penny Jon
    Wow, that's a nice selection of quality rarely offered. Does the 1795 set come in a case?
  17. Half Penny Jon
    Where forgeries belong in my opinion.
  18. Half Penny Jon
    Congratulations Chris! Is the gold you have on Ebay at the moment part of your mysterious 1934 Wreath crown deal?
  19. Half Penny Jon
    I think that we numismatists are a law abiding bunch of people.
  20. Half Penny Jon
    There you go, instant sale!
  21. Half Penny Jon
    C'mon Chris, we all want to see what you really look like (I keep thinking you look like your avatar)!!!!!!
  22. Half Penny Jon
    I don't think that I've broken any rules (if I have please inform me) however, my friends must have done.
  23. Half Penny Jon
    That's absolutely true. What hits you is how ordinary it looks. Colin was quite happy to let me see it; on e advantage of being in touch with him is that you get to see quite a lot of things you can only dream about owning. BTW on eBay at the moment someone is selling what they claim to be an 1839 proof Manx farthing http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...ssPageName=WDVW I wonder what Colin would have done if you dropped it!
  24. Half Penny Jon
    Because they don't understand.
  25. Half Penny Jon
    C'mon Chris, show us your photo!!!!!!!!!
