    I have a halfcrown with similar marking. It was found partially covered by a florin on a roof beam. Probably undisturbed for decades.

    The halfpenny appears to have been partially covered by another coin for a long while. The darker part of the coin was exposed to light and the lustrous part was hidden.

    I surely hope so, as I sold quite a bit a few years ago. At least, that's what I think it was. I need to look for the full image file

    RM wouldn't do that. But they probably would run off a few thousand and then put them in nice flashy wallets.

    We can take that as a No then Peter?

    If those are not scratches or hairlines that I can see then this medal usually fetches around 15% over melt.

    Doesn't this happen when the initial bidder has set a maximum bid with ebay? Any subsequent bidder will not show but the bid will increase until initial bidder's maximum is surpassed.

    Probably couldn't read the die letter clearly.

    Going through loads of old stock and found an 1862 DL halfpenny. Except some a**hole got there before me and ruined it. Yes there's a letter B under the burn.

    I'm guessing that most of us do this type of examination via photographs or scans. You'd go mad trying it with a raw coin.

    IM the address Colin.

    Interesting. Thanks Colin. I've put the bulk of the culls on Ebay rather than send them to the U.S. but I'll hold this one back to see if more develops.

    I'm just putting together some cull/roadkill farthings (1672-1799) for a US dealer , and I'm not sure about this 1754. the four looks odd, but not odd enough to be 4/0. Any opinions?

    I'm using tinypic now because I'm having issues with Photobucket . Tinypic is fast to upload, but unless I'm doing something wrong, there's no bulk uploader. Each shot has to be done individually.

    Thanks gents. It will eventually be traded for summat.

    Thanks Rob, a simple and elegant solution. A 10p of the same vintage fits neatly into both depressions.

    I think this could be PMD:

    Terms and conditions of carriage for courier companies usually disallow coins, specie, and jewels. I think it's part of the Warsaw Convention of Carriage of Goods by Air.

    Was it you creeping about under my window then Paddy?

    There are a number of varieties of Leith Halfpenny, in this case pictures are important.

    Xetra-Gold is a Deutsche Bank sponsored plan whereby shares are backed by physical gold, and those shares can be exchanged for physical gold. Well, that's the theory anyway. I've been banging on about the fragility of Deutsche for over a year and now something is starting to happen. http://www.marketslant.com/articles/update-deutsche-boerse-responds-xetra-gold-delivery-allegations

    If you look at photograph 7, you'll see a very convincing Pistrucci die.

    Even though it's an uncommon reverse and it is in lovely nick, I would think around £25. More obviously, if you are lucky enough to get a bidding war.
