Books can be expensive so unless you intend taking coin collecting up as a hobby there are plenty free sites on the net where good info is available , start there .

If a genuine coin and i cannot see that it's vastly better grade at least near fine
-
Worth more like $82 while its had little wear the coin appears badly struck and would be difficult to sell in this condition - is this one of the better grading houses in the us or are they "Cowboys"?

First time I have noticed the "Ebay automated Feedback". How long has this been going on? Positive but "This seller successfully completed an order" certainly counts as "Damning by faint praise!
That buyer would not be a full shilling methinks

This time its a quarter sov and a half farthing mule struck on a brass flan , really interesting
This of course makes it one of the very few coins with two different dates on it 1848 and 1849

I once found a G over G farthing in GVF grade for £3 beat that (He says expecting this thread to turn into a four yorkshiremen sketch very soon)
-
Both coins are in lowish sort of grades so it would be foolish to say if they were a filled die or not , you would have to find several much higher grade coins to say with any certainty , shows I spotted it as well though doesn't it?
-
Just discovered another new variety of Lauer's model coins this time its a Half crown 1897 quite a scarce coin anyway I have both varieties one reads HALF CROWN and the other HALF ROWN in other words the "C" is missing .
Anyone any idea if its listed?
-
Such interesting coins and from their dates quite late in moore's career I must admit I prefer Moores output to Lauers
-
Sounds like a few of the rarities in your collection need airing on here kai , we all need an idea of what to look out for .
Funny thing is even though its very rare you would probably only get £15 for it max .
Thanks for getting back so quick and also for your great knowledge

Here's another rare mule model coin I found in a mixed lot
As you can see its an Edward double florin which to my knowledge does not even exist in the edward 1902 set anyway it, so I am sure its a mule - anyone with a copy of rogers book could they please check its in there , thanks ,
Anyway the pics

Maybe the world will be a better place in the future with Ai Bots putting on ebay listings without the help of humans .
Well they could hardly do worse , could they?

I must say that the decimal coins at least would not be something I would choose to spend my money on , but there again people collect different things don't they?
The farthing I would spend money on but there again not a lot ,for what is probably a unique piece.

Oh yes I forgot James I had sir Walter Raleigh executed after a long spell in the tower of london , bet christopher columbus never got the same thing from the spanish monarchy

"The madness of king george" is probably as good a film as you will find in the end you start feeling quite sorry for him

8 minutes ago, Diaconis said:Just a thought. Suppose we believe Hobbes that the state of nature is a horrible place where laws do not exist, property is non-existent, and everyone is out for themselves without a care for others. That then is the motivation to work and pay a portion of the proceeds from the fruits of our labours to maintain a government to protect us, and maintain natural law.
The irony is that the value we are getting for our buck these days is inversely proportional to the greed and self-centeredness of the government itself.
Regressing into the state of nature and paying for the privilege 😃 Has a Pythonesque feel to it.
Like buying natwest with public money then the public being sold it back , just cause some narcissist trashed the whole company

in Decimal Coins
Posted · Edited by copper123
The first £1 coins featuring King Charles III are entering circulation this week.
Almost three million coins have been issued to post offices and banks across the country.
The coins mark the King's new reign and celebrate his love of the natural world, with the reverse side featuring a pair of bees.
Even as the King becomes a familiar sight on coins, those featuring Queen Elizabeth II will remain in circulation. New sets of coins are struck in response to demand.
"It is an honour to reveal that King Charles III’s £1 coin is now in circulation," said Rebecca Morgan, director at the Royal Mint.
"We know there’ll be a buzz of excitement amongst collectors and the public to get this special piece of history in their change."
FIRST TO SCAN ONE AND PUT THE PICTURE ON HERE WINS!
