    At last a car that you are not allowed to wash!

    Wow have never seen one of those before! That must weigh quite a bit. How do you store pieces like that, I would imagine that they are fairly valuable? Thanks for sharing - off to Google Swedish plate money now.

    I have Dave's books now - although they are still sat in my room unopened as they are meant to be a Christmas present. Come 25th I'll be educating myself too!

    Oh no not micro varieties ...... BTW where is Suriname?

    That's interesting Sword. So legally you could pay for something with a "deformed" coin then? Not that the seller is likely to accept it mind

    Thanks Richard for showing this. Bit out of my budget unfortunately - its not really square though anyway (so I keep telling myself!)

    Oh have not heard of there being a different metal used for each side on a coin before - fascinating stuff and interesting history.Thanks for sharing. I do find square coins to be aesthetically pleasing on the eye. I even have a square wedding ring,which I found in a junk shop - but that's another story!

    Hi Square Coin Man, thank you for your answer and information and welcome to the forum! I actually collect engraved coins and love tokens, it was just because that one happened to be square I thought it a little unusual and lead me to ask about square coins. I would guess that you collect them? I have so far resisted going down that avenue myself, but please do post any examples you may have as I am sure some of use would be interested in seeing them!

    Its interesting thinking about holes in coins. I wonder if it would've devalued / made them invalid at the time. Would for instance a holed two pound coin today be accepted, would the bank still honor its face value and exchange it for another as they do ripped notes? Perhaps we ought to experiment!

    I wouldn't mind one of each of those Dave please. I'll just let my in-laws know that they have my Christmas present sorted PM me with details of how to pay and I'll let you know my addy. Thanks.D.

    This is possibly why our cat has so far lived to the ripe old age of 19 yrs - we often forget to feed it!

    Now then Dave what have you got against the Chinese?!! :D
  13. Debbie

    Yes a bit of narrow market! On his other coins it says "cleaned before posting..."

    Hey!

    Debbie replied to Greg's topic in Beginners area

    That first one looks as if it may have been guilded at some point and probably of sentimental value to someone sometime in its history. Sadly it is not of monetary value though.

    Ahhh yes but surely all you gentlemen coin collectors are loaded....
  17. Debbie
    Just noticed - hope you are enjoying yourself!

    Here's an interesting way to display a coin.... here

    I suppose coins are no different from any antique object really. We'd all prefer the genuine article in pristine condition. There will always be a place and a market for restored pieces rather than modern replicas. Just wish all people were honest about it!

    Thanks for your nice comments chaps. Peck I didn’t bid as I bought this one from a dealer Charles Snowden. It actually came in a broach but is easily removed. Stuart, it’s not my clever photography as the photos are theirs and I can’t really detect that “blueness†on the actual coin in hand. Dave I’m off now to Google dreadnought – thanks!
  22. Debbie
    Haven’t bought an engraved coin for a while…....well for months at least. Here’s one which Mongo tipped me off on (what has happened to him?)

    I have heard that tomato ketchup works well....
