    Well, if she did happen to be browsing the boards wondering whether to post, we could assure her of a friendly welcome Whilst on the 1933 penny, I came across this; http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100531081627AAd4cTb Thing with the 1933, is that it has achieved the same status as UFO's, they may well exist, who knows, but absolutely no-one is going to believe it, even if you park one on their lawn. Same with the penny -that there are 7 has become a 'fact'

    Thats just an example of the 1933 400 lol Am I getting old ?

    If you scroll down to the comments on here: (same article word for word) http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/news/article.html?in_article_id=511679&in_page_id=2 The seller surfaces to tell us that she didn't withdraw it, ebay did ?

    Well, if that's a fake, it's a pretty good one.
  5. £400 for a Penny ?
    Yes, I saw that one. Looks like a pretty neat bit of kit and those pictures Mark has put up are easily the best we've ever seen on here. IMO.

    Well, last years CCGB lists that coin as £70 in UNC. Take say £15 off as catologues are always a bit ambitious, say £55 with no problems. Dipped ? Well that's a judgment call really isn't it. It probably will retone over the years, depends how much you like it/want it. I dunno, maybe offer £20, see what he says and go from there ? I sold one recently on ebay in pretty good nick - 1916 from memory, went for £30 odd if memory serves.

    Oh dear. I think I might have to have one of those....

    Silver's not my thing, so I'll let someone else jump in on that, I'll just say hello. I'm most impressed with the detail you have been able to show, would you mind me asking what model of microscope you used and how much it cost ?
  9. £400 for a Penny ?
    Be interested in the foil impression - it's a significant upgrade from mine......
  10. £400 for a Penny ?
    I like that, it has a definite ring to it...
  11. £400 for a Penny ?
    Oh, well it wasn't when I looked earlier. Strange. Never mind. Up to £45 now
  12. £400 for a Penny ?
    Interesting. The listing appears to have been removed. Did we do that ?
  13. £400 for a Penny ?
    Total disaster. I think he must have used significantly thinner foil than the stuff in the kitchen drawer. Wouldn't even take a vague imprint.
  14. £400 for a Penny ?
    Actually, I think that's bloody clever and I'm going to have a go myself. Will report back on the results later....

    I think that's what we needed to know Gary, thanks for the steer. Quite a reasonable cost and I just don't trust contents insurers, I can see them trying to wriggle out of paying in the event of a claim, either through some small print mechanism or trying to pass coins off as cash, or some such. Doesn't ensure peace of mind which is what it's all about in the end.

    Anyone have any dealings with this chap ? http://www.coinauthentication.co.uk/
  17. £400 for a Penny ?
    Hello, Thought it would be a good idea to discuss this important subject on it's own thread. Who do you use, mainstream contents insurer or specialist ? How does the policy work ? How much does it cost per £1000 ? Are there any specific conditions like the use of a safe/bank vault ? Any information anyone feels willing to share will be gratefully received I'm sure. Rgds,

    Right, we must stop this, we are in danger of creating a parody of middle aged grumpy old men. Enough.

    How long before we get a bimetallic pound ?
  20. £400 for a Penny ?
    For which I blame the teachers.
  21. £400 for a Penny ?
    Oh dear. That's only going to encourage them isn't it. What is the exact law around forgeries? I have it in my head that it isn't illegal to forge a coin which is no longer circulating, is that right ?
  22. £400 for a Penny ?
    I share your pain. Mine are too busy fighting, shagging and doing things they'd rather I didn't know about to concentrate on anything so 'static' as collecting coins. I can just about get them to play golf, but that's as far as they will go.
  23. £400 for a Penny ?
    Well, We can't buy them for you, you must decide. If the grades stack up, if you can negotiate a good price, go for it. Let us know how you get on..
  24. £400 for a Penny ?
    Sheep ??

    Good to see you back Hello, no, I've never seen a commonwealth games £2 either. Yet. My time will come.
