I had my camera stolen tonight ..... oh dear LMAO

I like that too, i started buyng some foreign gold on ebay and have struck lucky a couple of times. Im sorting through a massive collection that was left, about 20 times more coins than i had collected over 15 years as a "mere beginner" my biggest buzz now is finding a coin that i know is expensive and not many people have.!! a good example is a very nice 1854 florin in brilliant nick.... not selling..... One day the wife may understand why i get so into it. I will do a website when i finish sorting them out and photographing them to keep a tally on them. All the good ones are locked up in a bank vault now..... too scared as i live in a semi rough area where "they come back an nick the milk from your tea after they took the sugar" James

Hi Guys, I have just noticed that i have 2 different 8's on the 1835 farthing, both are in crap condition but one of the 8's looks like a B Have taken a shot of both dates as close as i can get it. Its the lower date....... can it be worn?? only in the curve area? Cheers James

Hi all, Still sorting through this load of coins and i have come across a 1806 half penny probable grade is a Good Fine. On closer inspection of it i can see an A below the R & I of Britannia and the right leg of the A is directly above the third leaf up on the olive branch. I have tried to photograph it and scan it but can only see it through an eye piece...... my wife can also see it. I do have another coins the same and it is not on that one. Any Ideas????

I got 7 A levels all A's and what did i decide to do?? Manage a Hotel!! What a waste lol i wanted to be an Archaeologist too..... but too cold ouside for me!

MMmmm Dont fancy stickin them on there! My question was to get an idea of what i thought the grade was so i was far off... ahh well i will just keep to what i know best. Still i think i got a couple of good coins.

Many thanx for any advice given, if it weren't for here id have made a lot of mistakes. James
