  1. As for individual finds, the PAS and the UKDFD are good places to look for general finds. For specific time periods see the CCI or EMC, as just two examples.
  2. Depends which hoard. They've declared this one and so the Treasure Committee should produce and release a full report. With regard to other hoards, many are included in books relating to the period (e.g. Mark Blackburn's Viking Coinage and Currency in the British Isles). Perhaps the Fitzwilliam's checklist might be of interest to you.
  3. A hoard of medieval silver coins discovered in Scotland http://bbc.in/1bnCQae
  4. It's what I referred to earlier, the 'quick sell' listing form that eBay offers suggests categories for the listing and so the seller clearly hasn't read it and just taken eBay's suggestion as gospel.
  5. It's an example of why you don't rely on eBay's 'quick sell' listing form...
  6. Henry Penny cabinet.
  7. Thankfully, otherwise I'd expect the case to come fully furnished with some lovely Saxon pennies.
  8. When I view the page it doesn't say that 105 have been sold at that price. It merely says that 105 have been sold with that listing, at whatever price he had them listed as earlier.
  9. £425 and £600 respectively.
  10. It's not a flaw. I've just spoken to some techies at eBay and they say that this is the seller's chosen price. They've even tried to revise the listings with their admin account and the exorbitant price has been set by the seller, presumably they've run out of stock but didn't want to end the listing and then pay fees to relist again later, or some other reason.
  11. Bargain!
  12. But what if melted abroad, like this guy shows?
  13. I might get myself some of those coin zippy-bags... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Edward-111-3rd-Medieval-Hammered-half-Penny-/231135805639?pt=UK_Coins_BritishHammered_RL&hash=item35d0c480c7
  14. It's likely to be collectors of copper & bronze, I'd imagine, rather than just farthing collectors.
  15. I agree with Stuart. It's an 1819 halfcrown forgery.
  16. It's a shame his "excellent collation" doesn't include to collation of decent information.
  17. You're in luck then, Richard. "Genuine offers from serious collectors always welcomed"
  18. Same here, it's rather tedious.
  19. Not at the moment, sorry.
  20. 1915 Serious offers by PM or email, please.
  21. Sovereigns 1989 500th Anniversary Proof still sealed. 1990 proof, sealed. 1991 proof, sealed x 2. Half Sovereigns. 1910
  22. Happy birthday, chaps!
  23. Agree on both counts.
  24. I use cheques very frequently. I write at least a couple each month whether it be for coins or large payments. I doubt they'll be made redundant any time soon due to this news.
