  1. A few of my very best that, like Rob, were on Photobucket at one time ...
  2. About time we had some more posts in this thread?
  3. It don't collect them exactly, but I do have this, which I believe is an unofficial farthing token:
  4. Pretty little farthing newbie courtesy of Colin Goode (aboutfarthings)
  5. Yes, definitely the second coin for me, if only for the better strike
  6. And of course a turnover of £50k-£70k per year (if true) is NOT £50-£70k profit or income!
  7. Newbie from @Peter's neck of the woods (Ipswich):
  8. I can't see anything wrong with it either, not a 1734 but here's my example of the type:
  9. I see the seller has it as GVF/AEF. I have generally been happy with purchase from this seller.
  10. Continuing my mini collection of Cinque Ports Conder Tokens, here's my latest (Faversham - a limb of Dover) Why they have spelt it 'Feversham' I have yet to find out!
  11. Great, thanks Pete
  12. Can anyone recommend a particularly good one please? adthanksvance
  13. That's ridiculous, here is my best, that I had graded by LCGS I could display the coins side by side, but the many differences are glaringly obvious (at least to me!). My coins was graded 1 notch better than the one for sale in the forthcoming auction (CGS 70 vs CGS 65).
  14. Very sad indeed, he will be very much missed
  15. An early example of a coin to help the partially sighted? A nice neat coin purchased some time back from Coinery, just thought I would dig it up and wheel it out!
  16. My best 1911 proof florin so far
  17. Has anyone else been watching the new season/series of this BBC 2 comedy? In last night's episode, 2 references were made to a 'copper penny', although I don't think such a coin would have been circulating in England at the time (Elizabeth I to James I) - is that right?
  18. I was after the regular variety, looked choice to me and I do not yet have a keeper Arabic 1 of the series. I have little interest in 'varieties' such as the so-called inverted 1
  19. What did you win Mick? I was going for a very nice 1888 DF and wondered if I was bidding against you, but I believe you have a keeper already ...
  20. Out of interest, does anyone know if the graders at the big dealers and auction houses stay relatively unchanged for a number of years, and whether they are well-known and respected in the industry? Is Neil now grading for Baldwins as he used to for Colin Cooke? The only grader I know personally is the chief grader at London Coins ...
