  1. Leesa are you a bot or are you related to Josie - or even Peter?
  2. Peck if you look at his feedback and view all comments there are some which allow you to view the items purchased off him.
  3. And what an earth is "zinc luster"? ?
  4. If you have Publisher you can use the transparency icon in the tool bar to get rid of the "square white background" It looks like this
  5. As lots of people buy coins like these because they think it’s a form of investment which one day will be more than they paid for, shouldn't there be the same some sort of standard warning/disclaimer as you get on an endowment policy ie You may not get back what you paid in sort of thing?
  6. What size is that Scott? Paper sounds interesting - are they emmbossed?
  7. Wow now that is different! Looks like Rhodium is the way to go...... but calcuim?
  8. Oooooh we are into the 990's now ....time for Chris to get rid of some more spam ne thinks?
  9. Ahhh what a softie you are Richard! Interesting idea (I am afraid it would be out of my price range) especially if it increased in value over the decades. Are there any porfoilios/bonds where money is invested in very rare coins - apart from that American pyramid type scheme we were introduced to a while back - oh and Rob's bank account !
  10. Yes you are right Richard and there are a few out there - look what I found!here
  11. I clicked on this expecting to see a ceramic coin! Got me wondering what other materials coins have been made from....
  12. Debbie

    Amazing

    Not if they are chocolate biscuits!
  13. It looks like a scan to me and they can tend to look a bit rougher than photos.
  14. I think you would need to post up photos for members to comment on this properly. Although we didn't go decimal until 1971 I think that there were lots of proof coins struck with the 1970 date.
  15. interesting? Myth 4 especially.
  16. Just out of interest, how much does it cost to get a coin slabbed?
  17. Tinned - its late.
  18. From the supermarket on the timnned meat section.
  19. Gosh a forum god in less than a year! Happy aniversary!
  20. Yes I think most of the siver Victorian coins were in the 180 degree alighnment until 1887 when they changed to the same way up for both sides.I say most because I thing there is one that coin - groat? - that is different. Sorry to disappoint you, but still if it has a hole in it it was at least treasured by somebody once.
  21. Trying to look on the positive side and to regard it as an aid to rid me of a time consuming addiction....
  22. Er, I was refering to the original cut out coin that I posted as the penny
  23. It's a penny Bagerap I have one of those 1911 "types" too. There seem to be quite a few on Ebay at the moment. I wonder if you can tell an individual maker from the way it has been cut here and here Strange how they all seem to be the same year...
  24. And don't forget Dundee cake which is round like a coin.....
  25. I'm not usually a big fan of cut out coins, but this one is well designed and executed. I managed to get all the white "crud" off with a cocktail stick!
