  1. Trust and Russia don't go hand in hand Peter Hot Russian girls do though Don't tell the wife i said that, i wish to keep both of my b***s
  2. It's 6 + H. Still scarce and worth quite a bit in that condition. 6+H = R13 didn't realise this was so scarce
  3. Just take yourself to Scotland Bob, best place in Britain
  4. 12 pints 400, you'd be anemic by the time you got to scotlands border
  5. Will just have to wait till it comes i suppose, seller posted today, so a few days to wait
  6. The ip board is quite good though Peter if you're on the go and want to check the forum, its a free app (we like free)
  7. And lets not forget Chris' book, CCGB has some more realistic prices and comes in pocket size
  8. Just to confuse you it's Gouby obverse J - much easier to look up than Freeman - whatever, it is still the most common of the lot. That type of reverse should have a sig. Have a look under the shield. Just checked the website i bought this 1861 from Derek, the seller states that it has 15 leaves, gouby OBV J has 16 leaves
  9. I can still See 6 spam New topic posts in Lots of British coin related chris. Whether its My iPhone still picking it up or You've missed them i dunno, 1 is called is paul wincott still dealing
  10. Possibly so, the forum had its fair share over the weekend though. Dome sites don't allow free Email addresses to register accounts, perhaps thats another preventitive measure?
  11. Also British coin related, Seen on eBay, spam Inside that topic
  12. Lots of British coin related 1st topic then the 1874h topic, Inside there then Fellow in from that
  13. There is another nice iPhone App. That may Be Useful to others. Its called viber, its a Bit like skype but only for iphones, it Allows you to Call other viber users for free worldwide. I've had it for a while and it works a treat
  14. Would Hennige if you could get rid of the shite thats already in Site Chris
  15. Just to confuse you it's Gouby obverse J - much easier to look up than Freeman - whatever, it is still the most common of the lot. That type of reverse should have a sig. Have a look under the shield. So that would make it 6+D, but the dealer i bought it from states there's no signatures on OBV/REV so don't know until in hand and a peek under the scope, perhaps worn or weak but the coin isn't worn so don't know why the signature would be if it's supposed to be there
  16. Nice pennies Azda Thanks David, still looking for the OBV/REV of the 1861 if anyone could help with that
  17. What did u Pay for yours vicky if you don't mind me asking, and what grade?
  18. Cheers Derek, what about that 2nd one, is my OBV/rev right?
  19. Where's Bernie when ya need him lol
  20. Welcome back John. Thanks for the confirmation. I was using Spink 2011 and ESC but it was still difficult to determine which head type, now i'm only quoting the Spink 2011 here which states its 3906A it also says "uncertain to exist as normal coin or proof?" So now it exists apparently although no price is quoted for this type. So should this now go into unconfirmed varities lol I think you can forget what Spunk says about this coin Dave. You have to remember that they are not experts in the field of varieties and they are not producing a reference book, merely a price guide. It isn't too long since that they totally arsed up pictures for the 1897 high tide penny and I had quite a few punters that year telling me they had one because it was the same as the picture in Spunk. In their defence it is a massive undertaking to compile the yearly price guide, trying to keep on top of market trends and new discoveries. Peter Davies and before him Seaby/Rayner have identified this type and I think I would trust their tomes a good deal more! I can confirm this - I got the 'high relief portrait / recut portrait' George V varieties put into the Spink book, and sent them scans of both types of 1921 shilling obverse (nose to S or VS) and they've got the two types the wrong bl**dy way round Then maybe Peckris, they also have those numbers wrong, as the 3906A is definately the coin we're talking about in this thread, unless they've adjusted numbers somewhere, but 3906A is the A6 type of extreme rarity, which incidently i bought My advice would be - DON'T JUST BUY ON WHAT'S IN SPINK! Check other sources first. I did, hence i asked in this post before i decided to buy it, but i was almost sure of what it was, i was looking for confirmation of my thought process, although spink 2009 had nor price for it, just quoted as extremely rare, 2010 it just quoted the proof and nothing for circulation and 2011, well they don't even think it exists in 2011 yet they did in 2009
  21. These are Weimarer Republic commemorative coins, mintmark A was the highest number minted with 541,900, price in euros for VF is 60 euros

  23. Hmmmmmmmm, what did you CLEAN your coins with John, its certainly not a good idea to clean coins. Mintmarks are on the REV of the coins. The 1937 i assume is of the Paul Von Hindeburg, all 1937 mintmarks are of minimal values, with 40 euros being top price for top grade. 1 Mark 1907 has a few good prices, but depends on state and mintmark, same goes for the 2 Mark, that will also depend on state and mintmark, the mintmark on the 1926 is on the OBV (front) just above the laurel wreath. If you can find the mintmarks and maybe upload a couple of pix of each coin it would be more helpful determining price
  24. Just another question on this OBV/REV 1861 no Initials on OBV/REV and 15 leaves, is it OBV 5 REV F?
