I think you might find that would work , depends how fast they are and according to "Alice in wonderland" they are pretty slow , in fact usually asleep

William IV farthings in the absolute top grades are really well sort after , most fetch over £100 there does seem to be a lot of them around but most are in good fine or less , with a few nicer ones in GVF and lower. The smallest bit of wear on Williams bonce loses the coin a lot of value. High grade examples tend to just stay for ever in good collections or be sold by the london auction houses . Ebay is pretty useless for high grade William farthings as well , you have to wade through piles and piles of rubbish to find anything decent

they are nice in aspic I here

Or kill them illegally

Great prices william pennies are really rare above good fine or so

U mean on the wife ? LOL

"Got a little prick from me " LOL

You do have a love for the history "The coins I am most interested in would be from the Roman period and up to the Victorian era. I would like buy and sell online as a hobby and would like to know the best way to get started on a budget? I want to collect the above coins not for their monetary value but for the social history they represent." Thats a great way to start but remember there are less than 15% of the dealers around now compared to 40 years ago when everyone was at it . The reasons? Many and various but mainly due to profit margins and the amount of time coins remain in collections . Its a pity coin monthly folded as well I remember looking in the back and there would be fifteen coin fairs in various parts of the country and everyone would be within twenty miles or so of a fair say five times a year. Now we are left with the midland fair the wakefield fair and a few in London.

Interesting to see the 1845 large date farthing lightly cleaned with an estimate of £500 -£700 I have a similar if not nicer coin in about ef with no cleaning , I always thought it was worth £350 -£400 seems I might have been wrong

Matt explains to the press "It's bigger than you think"

I missed this newspaper headline - I surpose he had the affair to prove everyone wrong......

I would like to point out that as well as large and small dates on pennies towards the end of the copper series , they also exist on half pennies and farthings . The penny itself is a much more complicated series than the halfpenny or farthing with 1858 being the most complex

You might and I say just might find coins to sell on local car bootsales (Good luck finding anything decent) or a better way might be local antique and collectors fairs and even summer markets if antiques change hands . Fully agree that books should be your first choice for any spare cash

As far as coin dealing goes I would surgest don't bother , its nice someone young has an interest but I would strongly surgest its not a good way or an easy way to make a living you will need a lot of luck and working for someone else might be a better idea

None lethal at least they can be a bit of a pest at times but they do make the garden a better place as far as I am concerned. P.s. They are quite cleaver as well and I cannot see that catapult working more than a couple of times on them - they do learn.

Not a permanant as death as well - they obviously dont like the skovel scale

Mine's to fat and old as well , always has a go though

Tree rats can be legally shot as they are not a native species

Many badgers also have take a likeing to dafs in many parts of the country . Badgers can shift a serious amount of lawn if they take a likeing to the dafs in it . A lawn can be totally ruined in a night . Theres no a thing you can do about it apart from starting to breed cows on your lawn then claim to be a farmer and legally shoot them

Broke his own car window , yeer right asif

well its rarer than a puddle duck

I think the main thing here is what really did this couple expect for their money - this place has always had a bad rep. and since pontins sold it to probably the worst hotel group in the country (britannia) which owns some hanging hotels ( the norbreck castle in blackpool comes to mind). They are not charging much for a rapidly disapearing resorce so you are not exactly going to have a holiday in bali . The security guard is also not there to police the customers - if any customer is upset about illegal goings on report it to the police ,( expect a good kickin' as you leave the park though}.

The holidaymaker should have checked out the reviews on tripadvisor as well - holiday heaven is not made in butlins southport Bring the anti ant spray as well - the only place in the uk that I have heard of that has a problem with them.

Personally if it was me I would tell the holidaymaker to see his employer and possably check out his employment contract - that should get rid of them
