    I need a loupe to even see the date on G-V farthings! I need a loupe to see any date on any coin. They have dates
  14. pies
    That's the one! Dies 8 + H Thumb barely extends beyond StA X Sea extends to but does not cross LC Narrow spaced date I'm learning! I need better eyes

    Hi all got this coin relatively cheap and as you can see the toning is horrid. Im tempted to dip it and let it retone evenly is this a good idea or just plain stupid

    Do you want the shallow ear variety or the more common one. 1915 is not a hard year to find, there's plenty of high grade examples out there. How about this one Missed out by 50p You need to learn to snipe
