Haha! thanks for the reply mongo,I have just used the camera at work sovwill be uploading some smaller groupings of coins that were done in macro mode so should be better, the maundy sets look very nice,and there are a few other coins of more recent date I have added probably not worth much but in quite good condition. ok here is the first picture of the first 1897 maundy set

I just remembered that all the Victoria maundy money came out of the same envelope with London mint printed on it,is there a possibility that the sets maybe uncirculated especially the 1897 set as it is such good condition?

Thanks gary for the input, most appreciated would you say the maundy set is an F? I have just been looking at the picture on my phone and it seems I may have a complete 1899 set to with not quite as much toning as the 1897 set but still a nice surprise

Thanks Colin that's sloved that one for me much appreciated.

the 1/2d coin looks like the center section of the Model Halfpenny F804-10. It seems the size is right, the obv is right however the rev is wrong. How strange? was there more that one type of issue to these model coins? I also have an imitation copper half sovereign dated 1887 not sure if there is any interest in them,its of good grade. shame its not a real one! Thanks for the info.

I have considered selling them but the more im finding out the more attatched to them i am becoming,the model 1/2d coin was actually inside the two halves of the coin next to it which i have always been fascinated with as i have never seen anything like it before ,do they actually belong together or did someone just put it in there,the case is silver from what i can make out.

Wow thanks for the response and information tom,The henry viii coin i am told by the colchester museum is a southwark mint groat(bust 5) minted between 1547 and 1549 after henrys death during the reign of edward vi ...£80+? in such a poor condition? but then who am i to argue i am the student here. I was told the edward I is a longcross penny and yes it is of canterbury mint, the museum said it was class 10? i assume that refers to the grading? And also the elizabeth sixpence is a third issue they said. From what i could see on the 1/26th of a shilling by squinting alot it is dated 1851 sound about right to anybody? Thankyou! Darren.

Hello Predecimal community, I am hoping you can help identify any sought after coins and values of them. They were given to me probably 10 years ago and I have recently decided to find out more about them. Firstly I shall apologise for the odd non English coin in with them and hope the image host is acceptable. I scanned them all at once because I don't have a scanner myself,the image host has downgraded the quality but the originals are 300dpi I can upload them to a file host in their orignal state for download if necessary. I have had the older coins identified by the colchester museum but have had none of them valued. Thank you in advance for any help you can give. Darren. I have added a picture with grouping and numbers so its easier to know what people are talking about. Here are the links to the 300dpi pictures if you need them: http://www.freefilehosting.net/file0300 http://www.freefilehosting.net/file0301
