    1860 TB farthings often show a week strike, they still suffered with similar probs till about 1872 when they started to produce a better end product , although there was a steady improvement from 1860 onwards. The major problem was the beaded border and the relative hardness of the bronze coupled with the size of the farthing , steady progress was made for 12 years or so . Pennies and halfpence seemed to suffer less .
  19. Tribbles might figure on a star trek inspired 50p
  20. Teenagers will be glad to know that
  21. Is it obvious what metal this coin is it does not look like silver , could it be pewter and toned over the years before it was found? Looks a bit like cast pewter which puts it in very dodgy ground
  22. Up north we have a cure for pesky rabbits ,it's called a ferret , and it works every time
