  1. On the rotographic website under 'the titles' it says 'more titles coming soon...' ...well, what about doing an early milled book along with the normal Collecters Coins book?
  2. yes, i think that mr. Gouby has an easily understandable system there...
  3. The main reason that i dont trust eBay is because if one takes a picture of a copper/bronze coin with the camera's flash on then it can sometimes appear to have full lustre (i only want modern milled BU bronzes you see)...
  4. Good to Very Fine? Fine condition is in between good and very fine grades. Um, if its an english penny then it is worth anything between £5-£30 depending on its type...do you have a digital camera?
  5. In my view i would not buy from eBay (pictures or not) and i would not buy a coin that has no reasonable picture. I mostly buy my coins from trusted dealers (Chris Perkins, Colin Cooke etc...), the reason that i dont trust eBay is for the fact that most of the coins listed are poorly described or falsely described.
  6. yay! one silver, one bronze
  7. I think that it would be too complex for one to even start, think of what one would have to look for; (lettering - to a bead or a space?, Date Varieties - Small date or Large date?...) There are endless numbers of different type varieties, but to find even one of them would be near imposible. Even for a £50 pound voucher, i wouldent even think of looking.
  8. hmm...may i ask, is there any particular reason --other than coins-- that you are traveling to london?
  9. we shall need more info then "1752 copper coin etched ocv"
  10. Who will win the olympics this year?
  11. i wonder where that avatar came from Aethelred
  12. Hmm...removing dirt is...well...you can do this under soapy water yes, but remember that cleaning the coin even if it is just dirt is not really a good idea...if i were you i would steer away from cleaning it...
  13. i mean that it is all a bit packed together...at first glance it is hard to understand
  14. Hmm...it looks a bit tatty...but otherwise ok
  15. looks chinese to me (do not trust my decision though, i am not into anciant coins )
  16. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't an exodus a plural version of exit. I.e. more than one thing exited? I know I'm being a bit of an Oli, but you only lost one phone so it can't be correct. it can also mean emmigration (not that my phone has emmigrated but hey!)
  17. My sister managed to drop hers down the toilet before. She 'borrowed' dads until hers dried out, but it never worked again as far as I know. Let me know if you find it. there is a strange exodus(sp?) with mine, i place it on my bedroom desk and i go out, i come back and it is not there and no one was in the house!...i have looked and looked but still not anywhere to be seen...oh well
  18. i have lost my mobile
  19. I take pride in my coins ...and that was meant to say worst but hey!
  20. Best Buys 1907 shilling EF, catalouge price: £50, bought for 50p! (antique shop) 1879 penny obv.9 rev.k Fine, catalough price: £30, also bought for 50p (ebay) Best losses 1916 Penny BU, catalouge price: £35, bought for £62 (Ebay) 1100th post...
  21. hmm...i wouldn't trust spink's too much, they seem to overprice many coins...
  22. hmm...that union jack looks more like the scottish flag to me (blue background with white cross (X) in middle)... Looks ugly if you ask me...was it minted in 1793 or a latter date?
  23. hmm...scotland?
  24. Probably a few victorian farthings... thanks
