  1. It was the basis of the updates, subject to his future decisions. He later removed the milled penny (that I recently sold) from the catalog after receiving an assessment from the Royal Mint that it was a post mint alteration. Just as his 1970 edition was an extension of his several updated versions of his penny studies expanded to include half pennies, farthings, patterns, trials, etc. There are ALWAYS corrections, updates, modifications, etc to a work of this magnitude. There have been many new discoveries to add to Peck, Braman, Freeman, etc. No guide/catalog is a final authority, it merely contains information known at the time. They grow, mature, learn, make adjustments and corrections, expand as a living being.
  2. These, if I am correct, are you amongst the updates included in the second (1986) edition.
  3. I suppose then, that you finally got it in the end.........
  4. Something else of interest, and pertinent . And No, my dad was not involved in the invasion. He was assigned elsewhere.
  5. Here's my Dad's WW2 Medals. It looks like it might work
  6. A member since 2005, I got my one year badge too. At that rate, I'm only a bit more than 3.5 years old
  7. I have one listed on ebay at the moment. The same short sea/rock formation, repaired E's, die cracks. Ebay item#: 326743200377
  8. Thank you, that explanation seemed most likely to me also.
  9. I just listed this coin on ebay and was looking for some thoughts on it. The E in ONE has protrusions from the left side of the upright. At times it looks like it might have been punched with the E upside down, and then corrected. Anyone have any thoughts or ideas??? Thanks, Gary
  10. Not letting me quote and post, so just answering. I'm tempted to say 1843. Seeing the obverse could possibly dissuade me from that temptation.
  11. I have this issue too intermittently. Even just on a plain text post.
  12. Those were the copper half pennies. These are the Bronze half pennies
  13. Not yet, I'll be saving the pennies for last. This time around it will be the half pennies.
  14. Yes, and I am now thinking of disposing of my bronze half pennies. A lot of work on ebay with little reward. Unless I can find a buyer for the entire collection. I'll have to make a decision.
  15. After a lackluster interest in my recently ended auctions; I have subsequently returned to the "Buy it Now" format with many more prices lowered. Please have a look, I will always consider ALL REASONABLE offers made in good faith. FREE DOMESTIC SHIPPING!! Please contact me with any questions. Thank You, Gary
  16. Here is a very clear example on a 1854 penny that I currently have on ebay.
  17. I just REDUCED the prices on MOST items. ALL REASONABLE offers considered. PLEASE have another look. Thank you, Gary
  18. Thanks Rob, I'll check when I get home to see if the marks match. And will post an image for comparison. Best Regards, Gary
  19. Hi all, As you may have seen, I have started to dispose of my copper penny collection. As I was listing the 1826 varieties, I noticed that the better condition of my two 1826 NO LINE on the saltire had an inverted die alignment as opposed to the normal die alignment ( coin alignment as in US coinage, as opposed to medal alignment as used in the UK). Like the 1841 half penny inverted die alignment. Is anyone familiar with this variety??? Thanks, Gary
  20. My Ebay Listings I am getting an error message when trying to start a new topic, so I'll just try to add to this one. Circumstances have unfortunately forced me to start listing, on eBay, the bulk of my copper penny collection. I will continue to list the coins as time permits. I have attempted to price the items fairly based upon recent sales records. I also have an assortment of other various items listed as well. I can't do anything about the VAT, but I know that eBay insists on shipping each AUCTION lot separately. I do not know if the same applies to "Buy It Now" sales. Obviously, this does not apply to domestic USA sales. That being said, I am open to all reasonable offers, and am willing to combine individual lots into larger combined lots in order to expedite the shipping process. I find eBay International shipping provides a safer, more secure, and more economical shipping option for me. Please feel free to make an offer or contact me if there is anything of interest to you.  Thank you, Gary My Ebay Listings
