  1. Panasonic have a partnership with Leica - some models are almost identical apart from their badging and exterior styling. And many Lumix models come with Leica lenses, or Lumix lenses co-developed with Leica.
  2. Oh yes, though I haven't read any for years. My favourite was the guy who fitted a very large powerful rocket to the top of his car. Yes, it achieved incredible speed though a sandstone bluff brought EVERYTHING to a sudden end.
  3. That's L for Leica not Lumix .. so probably not cheap.

    1908 penny with a larger 0

    This was the very first image that came up on google, so unless a coincidence, I'd say not rare:

    Disgraceful. 4 over 5? Yes, if I own a 1959 penny or a 1968 halfcrown...
  6. To be fair, looking at the resale pictures (which are much better than the original seller's), he got it for a very decent price. Though his selling price is a tad optimistic for a coin that - despite lustre - is barely VF! ... possibly not even that.

    Coin prices continue to rise

    I assume all those 'desig's are American? They are the only collectors who seem even remotely interested whether a coin is 'red' (by which they mean yellow/orange of course), 'red/brown', or 'brown'.

    can you decipher those "desig"s? I infer that PF stands for 'proof' but what the hell is the rest of it?

    1867 Penny F53 6+G , UNC.

    Yeah - 1864 is also very tough in higher grades.

    I saw that. I don't smell a rat, I smell a dead heffalump...

    Possible error.

    Possibly you meant it IS an error? But not a fake.

    VIP proof? (Very Improbable Price)

    Using acetone to clean coins

    Presumably surgical spirit - being clear - doesn't have any dye problem?

    Useful Advice

    It's not entirely 'cached' - yes, that's part of the reason, but it's mainlyt down to the fact that your browser is running the site a bit "behind". As you say, refreshing the page should resolve things, but having said that I've never had a problem with Noonans where the video shows separately from the lot information and two appear to be in sync.

    Possible Variety 1962 penny

    my thought is that it's a striking error at the Mint (misstrike) ... but if there's only the one, it's not likely to command a premium and wouldn't be considered a 'variety' as such.

    1698 Half penny

    Nice finds!

    I know! Gobsmacked is an understatement of how I feel..

    More Pennies

    I'd go for a grade of AUNC on that reverse - it may in fact be UNC but the 'lustre wear' together with the fact that it's a slightly weaker strike than the obverse would make me downgrade it a little.
