    Yes her interest in india came from one of her later servants

    Edward Vii was about twenty five years old in 1866 , how come they knew what he looked like 35 years later when he was not even king yet. I think queen victoria might have objected to him being called king and emperor of india even in a caretaker roll

    John always smoked those little cigars the ones that lasted about 10 minutes and sold for a couple of pounds in a five pack (and remember 1980's prices)

    I wonder if this was one of the last lists before he moved to the states to work for a gradeing house the "sale " would be a sensable thing to get in a few bob before the move. I thing if hes still alive he would be around 90-95 years old now

    Funny thing is I have a couple of old lists and some prices of coins he sold are cheaper now than when he sold them 40 years ago - they really were a dreadfull "Investment" not in all cases obviously one of the worst performers is a 1895 YH farthing in general the older and rarer the better the investment they were.

    It looks a little strange when all a dealers stock grades at BU

    Better to give her a smack with a rolling pin like andy capp

    Hi just back from lidl I bought a rather large magnifyer which though advertised as ideal for craft work is actually brilliant for coins its available for £19.99 but if you use the voucher from the metro or mail last weekend you get £5 off a £20 shop so effectively 25% off . Great for those of us whos sight is not as good as it was

    I must admit having a soft spot for french soft cheese , not as high in fat as most cheese as well

    A cheap freeman 530 would be great for me or a vf mule farthing

    Should have been easy to spot no anne patterns for 1711 are known

    I dont think the quarter farthing was ever legal tender in the uk , but the half farthing certainly was if only for a few years.
  21. copper123
    There were farthings circulateing in Queen Anne's time they were both Charles II and William III and william and mary farthings of 1694. While anne farthings were not ment to circulate a few did, mostly dated 1714 just like the william and mary metalets often found very worn from that era.

    well i am pretty sure that figure is more right than 70% Maybe our exports are 20% counted as a reverse and really we import 27%
  23. copper123
    Another of her great boobs was telling the tory conference we import 70% of our cheese (it is in fact 7%) a quick check on google would have told her she was making an idiot of herself in front of millions . Maybe we should rename her the tory dianne abbot
  24. copper123
    I would have a stab at the rose farthings - there are many options though and its only a matter of opinion Amazing after all these years we are not sure exactly how they were made
  25. copper123
    I cannot help but think everything is ONE BIG MESS
