    Agreed - and being published annually, it's more up to date too. Under a fiver on amazon! I think I will get a copy. Does anyone know what the release date will be for the 2012 edition? Save me buying two if its out soon. Chris Perkins the owner of this site can only tell you that. I can't see a 2012 edition coming out this year....but I'm sure Chris will confirm. The information on rarities and key dates won't change.

    Tony Claydon's site is useful but is no substitute for Collectors coins Great Britain.This on sale on Amazon UK & COM. There are far more varieties listed and useful information....It is also cheap as chips.

    A few obvious farthings 1863,1874h with both G's over on the obverse,1875 large date and small date with NO H,1895 bun. I would also consider 1883,1892 & all reasonable Edward V11 (1914&15) are also quite rare as are lustred 1935 & 1938 Have a look at Colin's site Aboutfarthings or use collectors coins GB by Chris. Happy hunting

    It isn't a rare coin.Even near perfect I wouldn't want to pay much more than £15.The mintage was massive.

    If the picture is that bad and the obverse isn't shown...bells are ringing.

    What about this for grading. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/George-11-Half-Penny-Dated-1746-VF-EF-Condition-/221031256905?pt=UK_Coins_BritishMilled_RL&hash=item33767d5349#ht_500wt_1287

    Detector finds are often barrelled this tends to wear detail. There good and bad coins found with a detector.Some coins do get plough damage. It does help to be able to ID the coins.

    Welcome to the forum. There are many classes and mints for Henry longcross 1d's. Your coin is very worn with little to go on.I can't see a sceptre.A good book for IDing hammered is England's striking history. Sorry I can't be off more help.
  11. Peter
    The obverse appears to be a very weak strike. I can't believe PCGS graded this.

    Another newbie here John. Can I have a goody bag of UNC 18C farthings The £2 is on its way to the air ambulance.
  13. Peter
    Trouble is smoke and have a liver problem you might get an extra few £. My coins and bits will not be taxable.

    I'm sure I cleared up the sick after my 16 year old girls party.Five loads of sick (all girls) and a BJ in the back garden( not by me I'm not so elastic now)

    Gary Put your hard earned money away.I am in the age bracket that means I won't get state pension until I'm 68.Why haven't we had riots about this? I had 100k in my pension fund which became 60k in 2008.I've never had debt (apart from the house)My girls both want to go to Uni. I shall pay for subscriptions to the Young Farmers club and hope. Coins and George 11 furniture are on my hit list.Don't worry about the chavs they will go for a playstation every time.

    Nice one Bob After many years of collecting the quality counts...plus a bit of sun and wife and kids treats.Four bags of chips followed by Devon ice cream isn't too bad.The holiday money may get spent. I have coincided coin fairs myself.
  17. Peter

    Bob How was your Florida trip? Every day I can drive around the country lanes and see guys digging up more history to send over the pond.I search on a monthly basis..weather and family dependant. On holiday in 2009 we booked a place in Devon with a private beach.A small boat came in and the guy had detectors.I saw him pluck a Victorian diamond ring and several green bronzes before he found a George 111 Sov.All I got was a bucket of shrimp and prawns and a red neck.

    Huss Come and live next door. I already keep our postie busy.He signs for me and leaves parcels hidden.I also cause uproar in the village PO...actually my neighbour sells scale trucks and we can close it for a couple of hours
  22. Peter
    Yes, very strange to see the full rim! One of the farthing boys on here has snaffled it I reckon! I don't search for modern 1/4ds Interesting though
  23. Peter
    It varied...old copper nose (Henry V111) Fine silver issue coins of Edward V1. Generally our coinage was the finest and even imitated and accepted by many nations. worth a google
  24. Peter
    I like to see London coins slightly over grade (IMO)there will be a couple of bids banging twice estimate(don't worry 1D boys or you silver slappers) and if I don't get what I want I will take a wheelbarrow to the next Midland. It is part of the fun and the chase.Last November I left 5 bids on Ebay coins whilst visiting the Midland (spent a wee bit too much there) Then I won 4 of the Ebay coins)Exit stage right Peter
  25. Peter
    We all had a look though.There is no bad publicity(engraved coin for you there Debbie)on the bust
