  1. Must admit it's a beauty though , wish it was mine.
  2. Of course the ironic thing about "The pheonix" is the best thing you can do after reading a copy is burn it
  3. like MP's Gradeing then , laughable
  4. Yes but the pheonix gives you 2-4-1 on this item , but does still does not give value for money. If they gave one away free to anyone requesting their list of overpriced rubbish I might have a bit of admiration for them
  5. A dark knight eh. I saw spamalot the other day and now knights just make me laugh. Best bit is when the taunting french hurl that cow out and it land on top of one of the round table members
  6. Four for two pounds!!!! YOU WERE ROBBED!!!! Does this not say a lot about the depths the mint will go to to rip people off..... Maybe they should change their name to the London mint office and go the whole hog
  7. You sometimes get a funny look if you ask for metho so I will stick to my good old fashioned acetone, thanks. I discovered it years ago and the only coins i have had any bad results with are the darkened farthings 1897-1917
  8. I know Italy has a reputation for art , I am sure if you look overall over the last hundred years or so Italian coins are really hard to beat , forgeting the euros of course
  9. GVF obv Ef Rev or around that - eye appeal is also important
  10. A rare MM never seen one myself, these charles and james farthings are getting increasingly rare , good job there are still lots in the thames
  11. Not sure if these are even any use as a coaster
  12. Very nice scott , unlike your normal washers
  13. Robinson crusoe???
  14. There was a story in the newspaper today about a man whose wife chopped his penis off TWICE and the second time she threw it away and it was never found , they recon a stray cat or dog ate it
  15. Who buys that rubbish ? Ahhhhh that would be - everyone who just had to have an undated 20p because it will be worth £20 000 by the time they retire Also any customers of the London mint office
  16. She might do better doing a Mrs Richards on the phone and pretending to be deaf
  17. Well she strikes me of loving her customers as much as Sybil Faullty loved finding the builder O'reilly in their hotel Faulty towers
  18. sounds exactly like what M.P. would behave like Maybe they should team up as a pair.
  19. farthings were copied - but to be honest halfpennies were the coin that were concentrated on by most forgers
  20. A bit less than 3 million - sorry but unless its totally unc it's unlikely to get any premium at all even after ten years or so . you might do better putting it in a building society
  21. Lots of english-irish mules walking about in liverpool
  22. Indeed prob about 3/4 of all 1775 halfpennies are forgeries , but most are made in england and most circulated in the uk (that includes scotland and the whole of ireland. many are evasions with blundered legends All are collected though in really low grade they are worth very little
