  1. Received invoice .... Won the 3 of 5 that I thought I did.......
  2. Looks like I won 3 of 5 that I bid on and was the underbidder on one of those...
  3. Freeman is the definitive work for the Bronze series of Farthings through pennies, although incomplete due to many new discoveries made since its publication... Gouby, for the Bronze pennies, is the most up to date and complete work available for the specialist collector.... I use both in conjunction with each other
  4. 1911 Hollow Neck Gouby-X I to Tooth 1911 Hollow Neck Gouby-X I to Tooth close-up
  5. I'll check and see if I still have the images of that coin when I get the chance...
  6. BEAUTIFUL COIN BOB, One of the nicest I've seen and almost certainly amongst the finest known....
  7. I hoped you would pop in on this one. Thanks for the pics Gary. Have you closely inspected the slabbed F282A? Is it really a 6 over 8 or is there possibly traces of the upper arc of a 6 poking out above the upper 6? None that I can see.... It looks like the F-30 ... It's difficult to image through the plastic though..... I do need to take it out to conserve it, as is developing Verdigris spots...
  8. 1861 F-30 6 over 8 PENNY for reference purposes...
  9. 1861 F-282A 6 over 8
  10. (part 2) 1861 F-276 6 over higher 6
  11. (part 1) 1861 F-276 6 over higher 6
  12. 1861 F-274A 6 over higher 6
  13. (part 2) 1861 F-274 8 over 8, 6 over 6, vertical line under the 8
  14. (part 1) 1861 F-274 8 over 8, 6 over 6, vertical line under the 8
  15. 1861 F-274 6 over 6
  16. I have several variants of the 6 over 6 which I will post after this... When I asked Michael Freeman a few years ago about the 6 over 6 varieties, he seemed to feel (this is from memory as he did not have any notes handy) that the F-282a was a 6/8 but that the F-274's were probably a 6/6....
  17. LIGHTER THINNER DOT LIGHTER THINNER DOT with DIE CRACK
  18. While we are discussing 1897 pennies, I have three different specimens with the DOT between the O and N of ONE.... HEAVY THICK DOT
  19. I'm going to have to review my collection.... Just looked at my F-148 (I think I have another one or two in other albums - not as nice as this one though) and forgot how nice it was... This is a scan and really does not do it justice....
