    ok, whilst we wait, could you tell me if there are different types of 1954, 1955 and/or 1956 farthings?
  2. Master Jmd
    so is it 'rare'?
  3. Master Jmd

  4. Master Jmd

  5. Master Jmd
    i am positive... sorry about the picture, it is hard to see, but this is it:
  6. Master Jmd
    oops, i meant; toothed on the reverse, beaded on the obverse...
  7. Master Jmd
    it is beaded on the date side, and toothed on the farthing side...
  8. Master Jmd
    what do you mean by a bead?

    easy question... How long have you been collecting? i have been collecting for about 7 months, but i only really started to 'properly' collect about 3 months...
  11. Master Jmd
    and the others will not be worth that much...
  12. Master Jmd
    that would probably be a George II Half penny...£12 for fine... that makes it a penny, a one penny coin...not worth much...
  13. Master Jmd
    i do not collect american coins; mostly because it is far easier for me to get English coins, and i do not like the fact that America has no monarche...
  14. Master Jmd
    get all pennies from 1797 - 1967 including 1933, 1952 and 1954. and i would probably try to complete the oliver cromwell coinage...
  15. Master Jmd
    i would not want to go to jail and loose my coins
  16. Master Jmd
    i would kill (not literally) for a 1841 silver proof penny...
  17. Master Jmd
    i can get reasonable pictures, maybe a tripod would help me keep the camera still...
  18. Master Jmd
    yes, i followed the link for the images...

    A rare 1807 King George III Copper Penny where Britannia is upside down (on the back of the coin). Rare...i dont think it is that rare... If holding the coin where King George III is upright you would expect to rotate the coin over to the other side to see the top of Britannia on the reverse of the top of King George III. However, this coin features the bottom of Britannia to the top of King George III's head. i wouldent expect this to happen...

    there are many books with information about the coinage of Edward III and other monarchs...and also the internet can be a good way to find info... these are 3 examples of edward III groats: one two three but i do not collect hammered coinage, so i cannot really give much information... google is a good way to find info...

    on page 162 of spink it gives information about the third coinage (1344-51) for gold. on page 165 it gives Firstcoinage (1327-35) for silver. so it does go earlier then 1351... Edward IV starts on page 191...
  22. Master Jmd
    thanks for your help
  23. Master Jmd
    whats the members only forum
  24. Master Jmd
    i have a silver coin; on the reverse it has a wreath around the number 10, and it has a female head on the obverse with the words; Confoederatio Helveticaaround it, dated 1884...
  25. Master Jmd
    I have decided to make this post for members only so they can 'show off' their best/favourite coins... The attached image is my favourite penny, it is an 1855 OT penny. It has no lustre, and i think that the reverse is the best side of the coin. I would grade it VF - EF, maybe even EF...
