  1. Ooh, look at that! Is that a Jaguar XK 140 first left?Classic, old, anything, is great in my eyes! I'd love to think of our present day history inspiring the generations ahead, but I just can't see it somehow? Exit: I meant 150?
  2. It accelerated away like a modern sprinter, unbelievable! Wished I'd filmed it!
  3. Ya, happy birthday out there!
  4. OK, my old 1701 maundy set coming up!
  5. Couldn't resist this! Took a lunchtime stroll to The Bell in Frampton, and look what turned up! A 1922 Steam-Powered Stanley Roadster with wooden wheels! What a beautiful thing!
  6. That's a really interesting question, and one I don't know the answer to. I would suggest you contact a coin cabinet maker and run the problem past him/her? What's the name of that esteemed maker that's often talked about on here? Anyone? I'd be really interested to hear back on this one, including rationales for glue choice by any said cabinet makers.
  7. Nick's tougher than that, Paul. He dusted me up when I first arrived, over the small matter of smelting bullion coins!
  8. I was making reference to Dave's image of the hammered coin, Dave!
  9. We've seen loads of this most common of all 6ds on here, reaching nowhere near those prices! That price is ridiculous!
  10. Me and Dave were talking about this one. I'd love to know how bad that 'thump' in the obverse right field is?Anyone seen this one in-hand? It's certainly pretty!
  11. That tone would take some emulating! Will add the picture to the collection! Would really like the high-res images of your one, Paul? You've got my email!
  12. Phwoar! I hope the obverse is as good!
  13. Mr R Sleeker? How long has that been there? You crack me up!
  14. My problem, Peter, is I'm only regurgitating what's already been discovered, I haven't got a jot to add to the numismatic world! Ok, so I've found a couple of unrecorded dies, a few unrecorded die-pairings, etc, but that's to be expected from any primary study. Truth is I've found nothing that comes close to blowing the establishment, just a couple of updates for BCW and Everson, all pretty tame really.
  15. Not good at all, Peter! Glad you're back home and returning to the comfort of this good ole pre-decimal forum! Just a medical hic-up, you'll be fine. Get your girls running around you like they've got greyhound moccasins on! A nice bit of fly-fishing on the lochs, now that'll bring your BP down nicely! ;-)
  16. And at what point does an article BECOME a book, Rob?
  17. Just out of interest, what's your cut on this, that would make your project more attractive to sellers than the conventional route?
  18. Just revisiting the new design from an artistic/composition perspective...I think the thistle should've been placed a couple more mm to the right, just for balance of the overall design!
