  1. Yep I now have a proper Nichols (thanks Rob) ,a Smokerings cabinet and one from Declans mate (Forestgold).All 3 cabinets are portable and superb.Easily stashed and a pleasure for 351 days of the year. My Daawg is the chief of security .Coin cabinets have been around before US history and certainly not suited to bloody US die crack/doubled letters/artificial toned coins which our buddies across the pond lap up.Show me pre 19C in coins in MS69/70 and my view may change.
  2. Still got £ notes around here and the only fake £ coins were imported by me when I worked in Canning Town
  3. The reverse is something special....right up my street.
  4. I like the 2nd HC.The 1st leaves me cold..I just wouldn't want it. Take away the slabbers and both could be bought raw for a lesser amount.(and have enough left over for a short break in France).
  5. thirded ...nice articles in Coin news.
  6. So much more than coins.Yep I need one to hold and study. My £2 ew on Arthur in the National won't buy me one....but Nando's for my girls tomorrow(today) will.
  7. Ribs,chow mien and spring rolls. Not bad at all.
  8. It is a bit battered and therefore value would be less than F.
  9. Still looking for a Golden Horse Cart.Would be an upgrade on my Silver one.
  10. Peckchris was our spelling bee but it is Seaby.....where has the old git gone?
  11. WC you have to kiss a few frogs.No harm in that unless you detest garlic. I love the outdoorsy thing and have a Springer although he was partial to one of the clergies chickens.He did bring it to me.We now have a different walking route.
  12. WC your coin is worth its silver content not a penny more.Learning point Nr 1.At least you have a coin worth £2.50.
  13. WC don't buy crap unless you are really flush.
  14. How many do you want Pete? the coin is worth its weight in metal...DIDDLY
  15. I have a pile of shite...waiting for the the rabbits to take interest and dabble before the scousers. Look at yourself Pete....COINS MAN.
  16. There are better examples about. Bee patient and don't get stung. I could go on about honey coins but I would get a swarm of complaints.
  17. Peter

    1845 Maundy penny

    My cabinet would like to invite them to tea.
  18. Stewie did you buy Johns cabinet? if you did you are a rascal as I offered John a good price but was willing to let it run. WTF do I do with 4 cabinets? I am a bad coinie
  19. I've been a couple of times as my sister lived in Harrogate.It was OK but not a scratch on the Midland. Worth doing if you are local.
  20. I take it you had this done yesterday.
  21. I'm sure it is great but the site is really for predecimal collectors so don't be disappointed by the lack of interest.Although thinking about it the "new penny" is now 47 years old
  22. I hate all the b*llocks with overcut dates.They are the norm rather than rarities.You get some punters who think they have a unique coin.Come on Mr Goode...where is your book?
  23. Oui Vive la revolution I love the French coins around this period (just before and after).
  24. What do need to know? Lets have a stab. Condition is NF (F is only bv) It is sterling silver (92.5% silver) When it left the mint it would of been 5.65g.
