  1. well done no sign yet up here in the north
  2. I love the way its listed under Elizabeth II sixpence why can he not get the simplest thing right do you think I should email him and tell him he has it wrong or do you think I will get an insulting reply. Answers on a postcard please.............
  3. I paid how much for that horse and its still not won anything!!!
  4. Could have been in the ground or acid maybe , looks really nice otherwise.......
  5. hey I got the first charles banknotes on the second day of release
  6. sorry your right
  7. copying off the internet is bad form you can tell from a left click can't you the year set coins have a mint mark as well Hey it's only a bit of fun there is no prize at the end of it - I would expect them to be found in one of our big cities like Birmingham or -Manchester - Glasgow or Coventry, they usually get released in these places
  8. The first £1 coins featuring King Charles III are entering circulation this week. Almost three million coins have been issued to post offices and banks across the country. The coins mark the King's new reign and celebrate his love of the natural world, with the reverse side featuring a pair of bees. Even as the King becomes a familiar sight on coins, those featuring Queen Elizabeth II will remain in circulation. New sets of coins are struck in response to demand. "It is an honour to reveal that King Charles III’s £1 coin is now in circulation," said Rebecca Morgan, director at the Royal Mint. "We know there’ll be a buzz of excitement amongst collectors and the public to get this special piece of history in their change." FIRST TO SCAN ONE AND PUT THE PICTURE ON HERE WINS!
  9. Or maybe make you puke like the diana tribute yuk
  10. Books can be expensive so unless you intend taking coin collecting up as a hobby there are plenty free sites on the net where good info is available , start there .
  11. Made under the rule of Elizabeth the second and not Victoria as well
  12. If a genuine coin and i cannot see that it's vastly better grade at least near fine
  13. Worth more like $82 while its had little wear the coin appears badly struck and would be difficult to sell in this condition - is this one of the better grading houses in the us or are they "Cowboys"?
  14. That buyer would not be a full shilling methinks
  15. one of the best sketches ever
  16. WOT NO EDINBURGH OR GLASGOW
  17. IMHO the most beautyful of moore's works , stunning just stunning
  18. my god that's a REAL minger
  19. This of course makes it one of the very few coins with two different dates on it 1848 and 1849
  20. Would you believe it I have found another "Mule" in my recent buy on ebay. This time its a quarter sov and a half farthing mule struck on a brass flan , really interesting
  21. I once found a G over G farthing in GVF grade for £3 beat that (He says expecting this thread to turn into a four yorkshiremen sketch very soon)
  22. Both coins are in lowish sort of grades so it would be foolish to say if they were a filled die or not , you would have to find several much higher grade coins to say with any certainty , shows I spotted it as well though doesn't it?
  23. Just discovered another new variety of Lauer's model coins this time its a Half crown 1897 quite a scarce coin anyway I have both varieties one reads HALF CROWN and the other HALF ROWN in other words the "C" is missing . Anyone any idea if its listed?
  24. Such interesting coins and from their dates quite late in moore's career I must admit I prefer Moores output to Lauers
  25. Sounds like a few of the rarities in your collection need airing on here kai , we all need an idea of what to look out for . Funny thing is even though its very rare you would probably only get £15 for it max . Thanks for getting back so quick and also for your great knowledge
