    well yea, but most are just generic rubbish ones, and there would be more in change if everyone and their dog wasn't selling them on flipping ebay oh and.. seriously? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/George-111-Gold-coin-half-guinea-22ct-gold-4-4-grams-scrap-/302486668497?hash=item466d9c44d1:g:rjkAAOSw161Z4K~N

    most of these £1 errors are hand done.. really wish Ebay would get rid of the thousands of 50p £1 and £2 coins listings... just clutter
  3. scott
    was looking for something, and stumbled across this I got from a while back. Halfpenny, needs to be put in here.
  4. scott
    1972 was never released into circulation, so only proof.
  5. scott
    if you do Lizzy.. get a 72 set. why 1935? I would go for 36, unless it is because of the crown.
  6. scott
    could just turn it over
  7. scott
    the 1985 obverse, to me, seems to be different from the later ones on all the coins, text seems thinner, beads, even the strike seems different.

    someone on a facebook group had contacts within the mint, it was 1.8m in August.

    there are people buying huge quantities of Newton 50ps.. in bags of 250 etc... direct from the bank, then selling each one for £2-3 this is joe public selling to, joe public.. last count there were 1.8 million of them minted...

    De la rue has a license to print money Royal mint are getting to the point where they sell overpriced stuff now,they are selling a 1970 set on their site for... £42

    nice satin 19.. better then mine
  12. scott
    I got one on the corner directly underneath, seems to sink the the level of the main field. seems to be on a recent batch... others are fine.
  13. scott
    I'm more interested in the Halfpennies, as those seem to be rare
  14. scott
    where are the actual figures per coin there though.
  15. scott
    cant be doing with all the 50ps either, don't need 5+ designs a year. post 1971 tat? my 1972 proof set disagrees.
  16. scott
    got a few Lincoln seemingly struck on a larger piece of silver Bury st Edmund's
  17. scott
    first thing is pretty nice though.
  18. scott
    should just ban selling circulation coins for profit.. that's half of ebay cleared
  19. scott
    also 2017 ones the watermark feature the £ is clearly visible nearly all the time.
  20. scott
    no orders for 1954 so they melted them down? how did 1 get into circulation then?
  21. scott
    some of the details at a glance would be the corners some seem more rounded, not really noted anything else.
  22. scott
    still not got one of the wrong sided ones.. got a fair few 2016 and 2017s to check for details now though.
  23. scott
    as does the Cyrillic in the title
  24. scott
    no no, just saying, in regards to the 1875 H fake, I can see it is fake right away, but looking at it the differences are minor so still have to check.. hence the comparison to the ME, I can see it if I had the coin Obverse side, or in a pile, but if I was handed a 1926 reverse side, I would still have to check, especially where the key marker is worn.
  25. scott
    I have an 1845 with a very weak/ no top dot after DEF as well...which I posted ages ago
