  1. probably a skunk boy. P.s Not surprised hes from brum
  2. plenty of that stuff around in the midlands on sunday as well
  3. I must admit I would never want anyone to buy coins as a present for me at xmas , I am just so fussy . Surplies and equipment are more like what I really want.
  4. By the way the coin boxes go on sale in lidl this year on Dec 14 FILL YOUR BOOTS
  5. If you watch out lidl usually sell a aluminium coin case in december - treat yourself to one or two or ask for them as presents they will help organise your collection
  6. sorry £30 000 there are 100 000 residents
  7. All the 20p coins if exported via ebay at £50 a pop would fetch £300,000,000 and please ebay with its final value fees and also leave the residents of jersey with full bank accounts (an average of £3000 a piece for every person on the island )
  8. sounds like a "Real bargain" off ebay prob. Hang on a moment , original post is from july 2004 , he might just have got over his buy by now
  9. yes face value

    coin fairs

    I think it would be fair to say the coin fair is next to the museum , in the hotel , you will not miss it if you go though The next one is the BIG one , the four times a year one with loads of dealers !

    WITH INTENT???
  13. Yep it will be a "sleeper" in mint state for years thanks to this hoard I saw one on a stall in a collectors fair recently and all i saw was £50 , I enquired and was told the price was £250 , I just walked away
  14. I really hope you dont dig up that jar of pubes hidden by mr christie .
  15. Didn't many saxon towns and villages grow up on roman ruins , I am sure this is correct statement - they also reused roman buidings when useful that is why roman london is not available as its under buildings in london . The hole could have been made at any time up to 200 years ago The brits have always had jewelry- I must admit the hole looks crudely done
  16. How the hell can you tell if or when a hole was put in the coin , I have to be honest and say it could be one of only 1600 years and you could narrow it down to that ,anything else is pure guesswork. Its true that this coin was handled by whoever yes , can you name them?I doubt it .
  17. I think you would find most coin collectors uninterested by this coin admittedly its quite late roman , but still poor quality and I would think apart from the interesting story of it being found , would be in a £5 rummage box
  18. Treasure? In your dreams
  19. If I remember rightly the romans considered porcupines a luxury food like larks tongues in aspic . Wrens' livers. Chaffinch brains. Jaguars' earlobes and . Wolf nipple chips. Some wild ones that escaped in roman times still live happily is sand dunes in the south of spain , lucky the locals never took to the flavour they prefer churros, LOL
  20. the silver items are a set weight so no need to weigh them ,just state the face value and show a pic
  21. Expensive hobby that damaging 1695 farthings
