    If they were that plastered you should have locked them in your house (for their safety) and spanked them , they would think twice about doing it again

    I suspect he also might have a weird personality disorder as well giving himself a full five stars out of five is a bit of a givaway as well. After all everyone that comes across him regrets it I suspect histrionic personality disorder or even narsassistic personality disorder

    I put martin platt coin dealer into google and looked at his reviews on his yell account. He has five ,five star, reviews put on on a five week period , the middle of this summer , with no older ones. Could it not be he's writeing these reviews himself(?) I wonder summer is usually very quiet time for coin dealers.

    So I presume you lot don't think the leopard has changed his spots then ?

    Yes the much discussed or maybe infamous MP . Coin is NEF IMHO maybe hes starting to mend his ways

    If you want to sell quickly CCC are your best bet . They would probably give you a free 1853 WWR copper farthing in similar grade for the chance to buy your farthing

    Also coins as a collectable item tend to be valued by collectors on their scarcity . Few coins from the 19th century deserve to be valued on their mintages alone for instance you would be lucky to get £5 for an 1860 bronze farthing (there are several varieties as well which should make the coin more valueable as most collectors will want them all). But if you have an 1863 farthing in EF you have a coin worth around £100
  11. copper123
    Personally I would value that 1844 farthing at around £700 you would struggle to get £500 off a dealer though

    I must admit that these lot on here are a right lot everytime upinsmoke puts a picture on you lot rush to point out the faults in it . Unless he collects those proof sets from 1970 onwards this lot will never be happy LOL. Most coins have little faults but it is if you yourself who are prepared to put up and enjoy the coin that matters. Collecting is a learning experience for everyone of whatever age , hopefully an enjoyable one

    Like the rest of Eastbourne then LOL. Bet you will not find many Black sabath loving pentioners though

    yummy coin! the 1887 1899 looks to have a few light edge bumps still nice though

    yep the only thing you miss is not having that ticket pinned up in the kitchen board for 8 months and looking at it every day and wondering what the concert will be like
  16. copper123
    I find it really strange how in 35 years a concert ticket for a band has gone up in cost from a hour or twos wages to a couple of days wages with outdoor concerts totally priceing themselves out of the market but selling out in a hour or two (100,000 or so tickets!) Personally i always use the touts now I turn up ten minutes b4 a gig and just offer the touts £15 for a £60 ticket . They never refuse it because the tickets in their pockets become worthless when the band comes on I never fail to get in
  17. copper123
    I remember paying £1.50 for a ticket to see rush at the apollo manchester in 1978 2112 tour I walked out with my head blitzed thinking "what the hell was that" in a nice way though it was loud . the only concert i ever walked out on was sabath the same year , that was just too much very loud and my head was starting to spin sorry i also walked out on metalica in the early eighties as well but that was also because of something i tried at the time something thats illegal now if you know what i meen.

    A bit of classic rush from the late seventies would be better than that noisey sabbath lot.

    AHHH i see , yes this sort of flaw does not often show up when a coin is scanned , you certainly have a case if it was not mentioned in the description .
  20. copper123
    prob a pattern
  21. copper123
    Threepence is right I have seen several practically unique coins sell for £300 -£400 because there is a limited interest in the market for them - put the same coin in the papers and give it a bit of publicity and it could fetch £5000 . That said the rags that are our newspapers are not known for their interest in numismatics , indeed they go out of their way not to publicise it. Unless you are involved in the london mint office
  22. copper123
    ok sorry , but usually a picture should show the date on a coin its the most important feature the one that can make a coin worth scrap value or £100 do you think the dealer did not show the date on purpose? Bad or at least poor practice by the dealer
  23. copper123
    If you dont notice the flaw when you bought it really it only becomes one persons fault , YOURS
  24. copper123
    yes blank in defective 95% certain
  25. copper123
    Yes it was a guess TBH and I was expecting a reply like this - wasn't a bad guess BTW I think
