The obverse on your coin looks like its stuck slightly off centre,it must have been the way you pressed the button.

the pound coins are selling for £35 pounds plus,the sets cost £30,also leaving behind the £2 Britannia coins and the shield 50p which are fetching upwards of £5.

i can see there is current scramble for these coins on ebay as the last round pound coin advertised by the royal mint is in effect not the last,these coins are being sold for £34 plus p&p on ebay. from what i can see the coin is being taken from the baby sets which are currently available from the royal mint for £30,i don't think they will be available for long.

1876 penny no H
headsortails replied to headsortails's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I can make out the entire right hand upright of the H, and the top half of the left. (I zoomed my screen.) Likewise. I zoomed in on the iMac and can see this fairly clearly. I guess the people who can't see it don't have Macs I can see it without anything. A definite area of discolouration underneath the date between the 7 and the 6. Tell tale mark of a rubbed away H daz if the coin is real get it xrayed it won't cost a lot, all they do on this site is take the piss.if you won't you can contact me it's alan - plantdav@gmail.com Alan, Who exactly is taking the Piss? I now make my living selling coins and working as an independant consultant for auction houses. I don't handle 200-300 coins a year, I average that number in a day. The coin has clearly been altered and then made to look distressed, that is obvious from the vertical smear mark showing down Britannias arm. If you want proof it is an attempt to decieve send it to me and I will pay the £50 submission cost to Robert Matthews to have him write a full report on why it is an altered coin. Sorry if you feel slighted in any way, that was not my intent. John. sorry who is taking the piss? and I can't see a vertical smear mark John -

I looked at this photo with photo zoom pro,could see no H,any chance of a better photo please Daz. A handy pointer that the coin has been altered is the fact that it has been artificially "dirtied" for want of a better word. Some people like to clean coins, nobody likes to make them look worse than they are unless they are trying to disguise something. I guess in the end you'll see what you want to see though. It's not so much what I want to see, it's what I can't see, I know for sure can't see (the entire right hand upright of the H on this coin)all I have asked for is a better photo. for is a closer look,the more information the better. -

The end of the Penny
headsortails replied to Peter's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
it's simple the penny is going down hill because the pound is going down hill,the pound is going down hill because the country is going down hill, in recent months you've had what was called called devaluation of the pound now known as Quantitative easing -printing mony mony with no value,the problem is not the penny but what gives the penny worth. -

hasnt that long since gone? so....are you saying the 10p be called 10 cents and then penny....if so, why not just cut out the american bullshit and call the 10p a penny........anyhow mr peckris, im sure you will agree, whatever coin you call a penny these days, the RM will do a shite job of designing it I say,as the saying go's look after the pennys and the pound will look after it's self ,well who is looking after the penny. -

There's worse than that out there David I want one, where can I get a spongebob coin from

You're all wrong - it's a modern commemorative featuring scenes from "Invasion of the Body-Snatchers". Those figures are so obviously from a galaxy far far away. You're not really Erich Von Daniken by any chance? no he was roman catholic,but this my be proof that ufo's do exist,five quid they can have it back.

thank you bagerap,the small hole that has been drilled and plugged, was to find out if is was silver then I would think.
