the only coin i would buy from china would have to have a letter of authenticity signed by chairman mao himself...................

i also have a decent collection of beermats, they can be had for free and it's interesting to see how many different ales i have drank in the last couple of years..............it's strange that i can still walk in a straight line.

do you collect anything else besides coins?? i collect classic jaguars my xk120 and ss100

lovely coin but at that price it is just ridiculous for that price.......................... i bought a classic jaguar ss100 for £35,000 and it gives me far far more pleasure than any coin from woderwick would!!

the amount of these that turn up on ebay, there must be around 10,000 unknown examples?? ;)

could be a result of the old habit of varnishing coins in the hope that the varnish would preserve them.

how thick are some people, the casting bubbles on the obverse are as clear as a pint of stella.

what do you want for the kn penny?

sweden 2 ore, the three crowns on the obverse is the national emblem of the country.

i've got the 6d and shilling both are brass with a silver wash which has become worn in parts.

the announcement of the pie tax nearly caused riots in wigan.................... :lol:

i have 1 polished coin in my collection of over 11,000 it is a chile 1860 1 centavo and until i find a better example i will keep it. as for the rest they have never seen a duster and some have only been dipped in acetone to remove dirt.

i had a punt at this one, when it got to £1200 i decided not to go any further because i couldn't see the coin first before buying and the description put me off going higher...........

one of the best examples of a sarsons farthing...........................................obviously cleaned with vinegar

i gather it isn't just me who is sick and tired of these ridiculous "offers" from the mint, i get emails almost daily asking if i would like this bit of tat or that bit of tat. unless it is a genuine collectable offer i tend to put them straight into the bin. and yes i bought all the olympic coins for my grandson but any others no thanks!!!
