  1. The main trouble with halfpennies is they were not hoarded as much as pennies so there are relatively few around the victoria halfpennies also suffered from heavy usage and few have even clear dates these days . A good halfpenny collection is even harder to put together than pennies because at least there are still quite a few pennies around , there again there are more varieties in the penny series mostly of 1860 , 1861 and 1862
  2. I really feel sorry for the older and poorer people in ukraine they live from hand to mouth anyway the rich and mobile at least had the option of running away - some of the older ones even remember the nazis in the country in the mid 1940s such a shame that mans infumatitiy to man comes back 70 years later
  3. At a guess freeman looks about right it could easy be 51-100 though after what collectors have said above

  15. The chairman of Russia's Lukoil oil giant, Ravil Maganov, has died after falling from a hospital window in Moscow, reports say. The company confirmed his death but said only that Maganov, 67, had "passed away following a severe illness". Russian media said he was being treated at Moscow's Central Clinical Hospital and died of his injuries. Maganov is the latest of a number of high-profile business executives to die in mysterious circumstances. Investigating authorities said they were working at the scene to establish how he died. Tass news agency quoted sources saying he had fallen out of a sixth-floor window, adding later that he had taken his own life. Only in russia is a fall from an upstairs window a "severe illness" I surpose the guys that pushed him were described as "medicine" .
  16. I strongly suspect whatever they are storeing will not last long
  17. Personally I think that germany will face the most problems with gas this winter along with poland and france with all countries in europe badly scared this also will leave many parts of europe very much open to virtual blackmail from Russia. THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH (the bond film) now a russian reality THE PROPHET

  20. The funny thing is many uses of fossil fuel (admitedly over a long time ) seem really tame compared with things the earth does to itself yet life goes on , we might make life on earth more difficult for our offspring but I doubt we will ruin the earth just by ourselves - the big exception is nuclear war I surpose....
  21. And just imagine the total effect on the enviroment of that bloody war in the ukraine the mind boggles. They don't seem to have much imagination as well with a scorched earth policy (And sod the civilians), I can imagine putin saying "Well it worked against the nazis". And "We save loads on all those pensions with all those pensioners we have killed"
  22. The 2016 dated coin is five or six times more common if you belive the mintage numbers and you dont find many 2016 brittania coins in circulation anyway...
  23. I remember in the mid seventies the newspapers were all full of stories about how electricity bills would be practically free in later years , sucking up to the baby boomers as usual - .If we had known the truth we might have behaved better - ah well.
