Hussulo

Hi Joe welcome aboard! I don't know anything about it, but its a nice set.

Thanks Mal but unfortunately I have since sold this coin. ( I really need to buy Spink 2006 I'm still using 2003 version!)

All the best Geoff.

All the best Geordie!

Thanks Geordie.

Is it a brown gilt and does it have the RENDER edge? If so it looks like a P966. What is the die axis on this piece? I would like to know because normally P964-6 (silver plated, gilt and brown gilt) are inverted but P967 & 968 (bronzed and copper) are en medaille which suggests a different striking period. I posted about this last year. Hi Rob, just recived my coin today it has RENDER TO CESAR THE THINGS WHICH ARE CESARS on the edge and it is a light brown gilt is this P966? and can you tell me any more about this coin as I have no refrence books on peck or pattern coins. Thanks. Hi Hussulo. First of all here is the pertinent page and a half of Peck detailing this variety. There are two types of gilt and they are not easy to tell apart. The brown gilt has a hint of brown but is not blindingly obvious until you compare with gilt. I have therefore scanned in a gilt 1806 1/2d which is unambiguously gold to compare with the brown gilt P966. Could you let me know which die axis yours has and which way up the edge reads. Thanks. When you have time, a close up scan of the globe, fingers and paddle would be appreciated if these areas are unworn. Having tried to attach scans of the pages at 150dpi and images at the same size as the gallery pictures, it says the file size is too big. Something wrong here. Send me your email address and I'll send them by normal email. Hi Rob I have taken closer pictures of this coin for you at this link becouse I couldn't post anymore pics here. I think you would call it an en meddaille die axis(not the wrong way round) and the edge reads towards the obverse. I'll PM you my email address thanks Rob. http://s75.photobucket.com/albums/i317/hus...true&interval=5

Can you identify this large Roman bronxze coin for me? It has a portrait on the obverse and a ship on the reverce? and what looks like AVC below the ship?

I have bought this medal: Charles XI dated 1673 it is made from TIN it weighs 45.9gr and its 51mm diameter. Can anyone please tell me anymore about it?

Incredible! Did it end up with a dealer or a collector? It wasn't me, my bid of £50 was rejected. Well at least you tried! I thought nearly 170 times face value was overly generous WOW I did think 150000 was a tad conservative.

I know I have also seen it advertised in Coin News magazine before but I thought it might make interesting reading to some of the newer collectors or people that haven't been following the current market so religiously.

That's great guys, thanks for all the info it definetly had me beat!

Can anyone tell me what this coin is? Is it British?

Hi Rob, I can't answer your questions just yet because it is being shipped over from America, but as soon as I recive it I'll post pictures of the edge and get back to you on the die axis.

Hi, I purchased this halfpenny. I know its by Droz but has anybody got any more background about this coin or about Droz? himself?

Welcome back Chris!

My Antispyware softwre is blocking this site as being HARMFUL.

How about this for a double date 1717 Halfpenny. I won it on ebay but yet to see it first hand.

Found it many thanks Rob!

I'm not sure if its H over R, but the H is unbarred in the midle and looks more like a II but the base is joined. P.S do you know the link to the Adams sale I would like to see it if possible.

I believe this coin to be a 1692 Halfcrown R/G in Regina which is supposed to be extremely rare (according to Spink) do you lot concur with my finding? And I know it's not in great condition, pity.

Hi I have finaly managed to download the images.
