  1. Ever heard of coprolite - its fosilised dino dung.
  2. I dont know about you lot but if i had one of those anne crowns I would love to bury it in the garden if only because of the piss poor attempt at the obverse - it looks like anne has anorexea. With a face like that grumpy cats job is in danger as well. I am sure queens were never as miserable looking as that
  3. 2009 proof set is worth so much because of kew gardens proof 50p It was in hindsight a great buy , if you bought it in 2010 or 11 Why have you put a 2009 uncirculated set on in your picture?
  4. lol , sound like what prince philip said when he was offered a koala bear to stroke (in case you dont know hes also president of the wwf )
  5. Stop refering to it as a copper penny as well its made of bronze , and its also worth about melt value , around 15p i would think
  6. Maybe the cows and sheep have had good dentists in the past . This would account for the finding of them with a metal detector.
  7. britannias head always seems to strike up poorly on these coins
  8. Nice example - very few around in this grade now .Rarer date as well A coin to treasure
  9. I am pretty sure hes a con merchant really LOL
  10. FAKE!!!
  11. I think they might be loosely described as holiday loose change TBH
  12. Sorry there I think £5-£10 for a george VI halfpenny is too much , I would say they are worth a max of £5 with a minimum of £2 , unc grade of course
  13. just picked this up , found it really hard to find and am well chuffed (As they say up north)
  14. Well she does have a great pair of threpenny bits
  15. more fake than genuine george 111 silver nor surpriseing as the first thing folks would do when they realised they had a coin they could not pass on was bin it .
  16. you could grade the reverse fine because it has problems but the obverse is much better
  17. "tower mint " sounds like a made up name in order to fool consumers into thinking they are buying official royal mint products "London mint office" used the same evil trick more recently
  18. sounds EXACTLY like the general public lol
  19. You will be getting artificially worn down examples of this coin offered to you soon dealers just like the 1869 pennies. Not convincing like this (but strangely enjoyable) williams bust looks all wrong
  20. I dont remember it being much more expensive , the 1972 one , not even sure if it had the crown in it I know the 1977 one did The 1970 set was very , very popular and indeed the reason proof sets were issued for every year till now ,
  21. like most royal mint tat over the last 40 years
  22. pretty sure that coin would get a £300 bid off some numptie on ebay as its a 2017 coin as well . They are incapable of thinking forward to next year when there will be hundreds of millions in circulation
