  1. I did find a Burial at, if my memory is correct, at Rodborough Tabernacle 1832, but no other information.(no age or anything else) I believe that John lived in the Parish of Bisley Gloucestershire. bernard.workman@ntlworld.com
  2. Thanks Dave!
  3. Thank you very much for replying to my request Dave. Firstly, I will take the opportunity to thank you for producing the two brilliant books of which I have. I have an ancestor of which has given me a problem for ~40 years. There appears to be no record of his birth or baptism. I do not know when he died, except before 1834. The records that Find my Past may have information about: 1) Gloucestershire Wills and Administrations 1801-1858 :John Workman 1833 2) Index to Death Duty Registers 1796-1903 : John Workman 1833 (Gloucestershire) Any help would be very much appreciated Thanks again, Bernie, from Oxford UK
  4. Has any member full access to the contents of "find my past". This genealogy site may possibly have information that I require. I can give information of exactly what I wish to know. According to a free search it has documents listed that I would like to see, but membership is needed to access. I am a paid member of other genealogy sites, but they do not have the information that I require. Help would be very much appreciated.
  5. Die cracks match this one,
  6. Yes, beautiful striking, such a shame about the crown.
  7. I believe that you are correct. Another example with die faults and no crack through "A" Does this match yours?
  8. Freeman 264 Obv2 RevC
  9. My "A" to the right has clover leaf left of the lighthouse.
  10. Looks like an E over B, to me. Never seen one of these before!
  11. Definately not obverse 16
  12. I have noticed something else that was different on the last time of making a snipe bid. I placed my bid amount 30 seconds before item ended and when the confirm box appeared it requested me to type in my maximum bid again. The auction ended before I actually read the request and typed in the amount etc. Know one else have mentioned this happening, so maybe this was a glitch, or I did something wrong.
  13. More Mickey Mouse rubbish, where's the real currency coins.
  14. Does anyone on this forum know when the 2023 uncirculated sets will be issued by the royal mint?
  15. It might have been good at the price.
  16. I have known women that have enhanced my relaxed moments
  17. The 1933 penny for auction is definitely a proof. It was contained in a proof set. I owned a 1933 currency penny for about ten years, to me it was just a date that completed my collection of currency pennies. I never cherished this coin, it was only a George 5th penny with a different date numeral. I absolutely worship my 1860 pattern pennies and can't imagine parting with them.
  18. Almost certain that it's a D (95%) The shield on E appears to be not as oval, appearing flatter at the base.
  19. Clearly reverse F, the large pictures of HONI SO that you placed earlier, the top picture is an obverse 6 and the lower is obverse 4 Pictures of obverse and reverse please.
  20. Pictures of obverse and reverse please.
  21. You may find that you have to tick the completed or sold items box to view finished item numbers.
  22. Freeman reverse H
  23. In response to the comment by PWA 1967, Forum members may be interested to know that I was the fortunate buyer of the 1862 VIGTORIA penny on eBay (images attached). Because of problems encountered while posting to this website, I’ve asked Bernie to kindly post this message for me. Best Regards, InforaPenny
  24. My problem is that I cannot find out who owns these elusive coins. No collector that I know of owns these coins, but I often hear stories from collectors that they have heard of others that hold multiple examples. In the 1990's I advertised widely that I was searching for some of the elusive bronze pennies. I had very little luck and until later surveys were compiled, I couldn't believe that the amount of these rarities actually existed. Since wide use of the internet, coin forums etc, it was almost impossible to assess the true rarity of coins. I must admit, I am a bit guilty of holding duplicate coins, I don't need money fortunately, but hoping that trading may be the answer to obtaining the coins that I require.
