  1. DNA recovered from blood traces contaminating the artefact have led archaelogists to believe that this is indeed the long-lost nail thought to have passed through the left wrist of Jesus at the crucifixion. Engineers are now assisting archaeologist as the Angel of the North is lowered to the ground, as the search continues in the foundations for the casket, which is believed to hold two other nails and a man's skeleton. This is Jack Frost, BBC News, Washington! :lol:
  2. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Large-old-iron-bolt-detector-find-/370788493758?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item5654b769be
  3. John, Here. Regards, Clive.
  4. I believe that was Peckris's intention. Misleading us poor coinies with an article about other such tricks.
  5. Sorry, Stuart. I took this to be an April Fools' prank, as I thought you were on your iPhone.
  6. Glad to see he's followed the rule we try to abide by: "This coin has not been cleaned."
  7. You just wait until you get the wine ones! Personally, I prefer to drink mine rather than look at pictures.
  8. I thought you were going to say you got this from Warwick & Warwick!
  9. Bought in bulk from Austria: http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/oldtimermonger/
  10. I don't bother bidding at all unless I'm in London. The software is totally flawed. Sigh.
  11. 'Medieval' coin.
  12. Send me an email in April and I'll see what I can do.
  13. As Richard says, most likely +AIMER: ON: LVNDE. The moneyer and double-barred obverse N suggests Richard I, class 3.
  14. The reverse of your piece reads RIO NLV with the N and L ligated. Perhaps a class Vb. Hard to tell with the absence of the crown or eyes.
  15. I've offered him £100, do you think that's enough? I think something's fishy about the listing...perhaps the postage that looks too cheap?
  16. He has relisted it.The original description was CELTIC :D I did tell him what he had and the value would be approx cut 1d (a few £) Not tempted to have a punt, Peter? I'll tell you what, make him an offer he can't refuse!
  17. Very Good Condition.
  18. Who knows. But I could certainly part with a few pennies at that price!
  19. £132 for a Gloucester penny? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HENRY-III-HAMMERED-SILVER-LONG-CROSS-PENNY-COIN-1216-72-AD-/271166061491?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&nma=true&si=bRJnZbDLLwaWhcuExkbHMMzGZjE%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc
  20. I saw this and thought the same. Also, it appears that Edward was a fan of Twitter as it's got a lovely hashtag on the obverse, too. Shame.
  21. Do you mean specific in terms of the reading of the mint? If you mean in terms of class, then yes, unfortunately the photograph does make things difficult.
  22. Edward I, very hard to tell with the portrait but looks akin to a class 3 variant.
