Have you ever thought they might be having a day off?

Surely after a couple of attempts it is clear you should try another time!

It really does cost to have a phone manned 8 or so hours a day

Incidentally my brother has met jon anderson a few times and every time he said the guy appeared to be tottally out of his tree , admitiedly it was straight after a yes concert , he says he wanders round hugging and shaking hands saying peace and love crap and not really responding to any questions .

I bet hes been the same for fourty years now.

yes are the band that has made the least over the years from cover versions!!!!

[Jane Austin]

Tis true a good album , i saw nearly every song on it done live at gnebworth , not as interesting as wind and wuthering but at least it was not total pop pap

[Stamped Threepenny Bit]

sale is far too posh for such a slapper

[Stamped Threepenny Bit]

Radcliffe greater manchester not sale i am afraid

[Jane Austin]

Wind and wuthering, genesis, a band at the peak of creativity and not a bad track on it with many tracks anyone would die to have written

[Jane Austin]

yes (the band) albums were pretty arty but they slowly went downhill after the yes album anyways as regards the music , or maybe it just got too complicated for my small brain.

Echos is one of the best pink floyd songs ever

I see a much superior mule farthing has appeared for sale on ebay at the same price as the platt coin .Strange thing is even though it is considerably nicer it has less than six watchers and the platt coin had around 24 at the last time i looked.

How can this be the guy has no reputation at all, except for selling overpriced, cleaned rubbish.

You coin collectors are a strange lot.

Or maybe it is being watched by you lot on here looking for shilliing evidence

[Good Fine Mule £875 Any Takers?]

Who would clean a proof set ?

I see the mule farthing has decreased in price , at this rate it should fetch the £150 or so it is worth by the time christmas comes along

[Good Fine Mule £1,250 Any Takers?]

you are of course very, very right many many more wreath crowns got wear from being pocket pieces than through circulation.

Have you though that they maybe were kept for a time and then passed on (spent) and the next person that got hold of it maybe used it as a pocket piece as well after being showed it as a curio by a shopkeeper

[Good Fine Mule £1,250 Any Takers?]

But surely a sixty year old sweet shop owner in say 1930 would remember well that a crown was the size of a wreath crown and also be well versed in recognising a coin that is made of 50% silver and not made for use overseas.

I have seen many many 1935 and 1937 crowns with lots of circulation wear

[Good Fine Mule £1,250 Any Takers?]

Or even a broke adult - remember this country has always gone boom - bust forget what gordon brown said about abolishing it - it still happens

[Good Fine Mule £1,250 Any Takers?]

Oh and by the way I have accepted £5 coins as payment where i work , as i know they are legal tender - they really don't appear that often probably less than once a year unlike those pesky scottish £5 and £10 notes

[Good Fine Mule £1,250 Any Takers?]

I really find it strange that people on here will not believe that a wreath crown might circulate, while the mintage on these coins is really low you have to remember the 1930's were lean times for many, and just as the worldwide economic upturn came along world war II started.

A crown in the mid nineteen thirties was an item was an item of considerable value .

Remember many of these crowns were left at the bottom of a drawer just gathering dust , many young children must have come across them while "hunting for treasure" and some when they found the coin would have taken it straight down to the local sweet shop and spent it.

While it would not be the norm for it to circulate , I am sure a few did.
