Lots of forgeries of 1/4 farthings are appearing on ebay and appear to be selling a good prices acording to compleated listings - they are obvious fakes and I suspect some dodgy deals are going on allong with shill bidding so any new collectors should stay well clear of these .

Lovely jubbly😅

I am quite surprised that any team from birmingham playing football made the headlines at any time in the last hundred years....

SURPRISE, SURPRISE. Downing Street has admitted that staff gathered inside No 10 to celebrate Boris Johnson's birthday when the first Covid lockdown was still in place. ITV News reports up to 30 people attended the June 2020 event, sang Happy Birthday and were served cake. No 10 said staff had "gathered briefly" to "wish the prime minister a happy birthday", adding that he had been there "for less than 10 minutes". Rules at the time banned most indoor gatherings of more than two people. ITV News said the birthday event had taken place in the Cabinet Room just after 2pm on 19 June 2020, adding that it had been a surprise for Mr Johnson after he returned from an official trip to a school in Hertfordshire. It also reported that family and friends had been hosted in the prime minister's residence that evening. But a No 10 spokesperson said: "This is totally untrue. In line with the rules at the time the prime minister hosted a small number of family members outside that evening." PM faces key week ahead of No 10 parties report Sue Gray report: What exactly is she looking at? Under the Covid restrictions at the time, up to six people could gather outside, in a socially distanced manner. But gatherings inside of two or more people were still not permitted indoors, except for certain reasons such as work or education.

Man who took uncle to post office 'didn't realise he'd died' 6 hrs ago 73 Comments| Peter Seabrook obituary ‘Thank you for rocking so hard’: Jack Black pays tribute to Meat Loaf A man who took his dead uncle into an Irish post office to claim his pension insists he did not realise he had passed away. © Other Police are investigating the incident. File pic Declan Haughney told the Irish Mirror he and another man took Peadar Doyle, 66, on a five-minute walk from his home on Pollerton Road, Carlow, to collect his pension last Friday morning. The 40-year-old said he had lived with his uncle throughout his life and believes he may have died on the way to Hosey's post office on Staplestown Road. He said he and another man linked arms with him and dragged him to the post office. "He was walking like normal and then I reckon he died," he said, adding that Mr Doyle started "dragging his heels" at one point. "We were grand like then all of a sudden he started going all slumpy," he said. "We thought nothing of it because Peadar had had heart attacks and all." He said they let him go at the post office counter and it was only after he dropped to the floor that they realised he had died. Mr Haughney said he believes he is being falsely accused of trying to claim his uncle's pension because he previously stole from his aunt and served two years in prison.

I picked a 1972 set up for £12 not so long back , its easy worth £20 if only for the crown the rest of the coins are mostly NFC so worth having as well

They fetched quite a premium a short time after issue along with 1972 and 1973. They are very cheap now near fifty years on ....

poverty porn for the masses to look at and be horified Typical "Daily Mail" readers and sorry yes that includes me a couple of days a week.....

Any chance being remembered in your will?!

It is a unique rarity and so great seeing it on here thanks

I agree could be die wear , collectors will still mark it down prob a grade because of lack of clarity on the reverse , still worth around £1700 though..... If it were a penny of similar rarity it would be £6000

That reverse is not near unc in fact its not EF obverse is much better. Makes me jealous though.....

Maybe the people that pay massive amounts for coins online have been too busy attending parties at number ten this past year or so - just a thought.......

I myself found a A in fair grade (but very clear) it was the more common A to the left . I sold it as I did not consider it collectable in that grade as it had been polished as well and I am a bit old school on polishing (I hate it) Heres hopeing I find another

Die letter C much rarer than the A

I am sure the grammar and spelling nazis on here have not bought the coins or they would be first to complain

And the compare is dominic cummins

My fav for the new title Grand old duke of pork
