  1. Mr T
    Thanks, I'll look into that.
  2. Mr T
    Does anyone have copies or know where I could get access to Royal Mint annual reports from 1977 and onwards? https://library.royalmintmuseum.org.uk/archive/royal-mint-annual-reports has up to 1976, but I'm trying to track down some Solomon Islands coins from 1977 onwards.
  3. Mr T
    No luck with the Royal Mint's collectors bulletin you mentioned earlier either? I suppose this was probably marketing coins of the United Kingdom though (although the Royal Australian Mint has sold coins of other South Pacific countries).
  4. Mr T
    I would very much echo the "buy a book" sentiment. Collectors Coins Great Britain which is sold by the forum owner is a good starter.
  5. Mr T
    In Australia at least there were experiments from the 1940s onwards I believe with chrome-plated dies which gave the coins a much brighter finish - maybe the Royal Mint were doing something similar?

    Unusual 1945 Penny

    Mr T replied to Vespesian's topic in Confirmed unlisted Varieties.

    I thought it stood for Chipped Up Die or something like that, though I'm not sure if that's true.
  7. Mr T
    Does anyone have Bull volume II (gold coins from 1816 onwards)? I'm wondering whether to buy it or whether Marsh's books (and subsequent updates) contain the same information.
  8. Mr T
    I got in contact and they say it will be back soon.
  9. Mr T

    1911 penny

    Mr T replied to Vespesian's topic in Confirmed unlisted Varieties.

    Interesting. I don't there was ever any consensus on the dot on 1922 pennies which looks quite similar.
  10. Mr T
    Looks like something but not a V to my eyes.
  11. Mr T
    I was looking at the Royal Mint Museum's website recently and was unable to find a listing of all the coins - I know it used to be at http://collection.royalmintmuseum.org.uk/index.asp (it could be filtered by year etc) but it looks like this is now gone. Was it replaced or is it coming back again?
  12. Mr T

    1862 penny check

    Mr T replied to SilverAge3's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries

    Hm, the B in BRITT looks too close to Victoria's head to be obverse 6, but I don't see an LC WYON either.
  13. Mr T
    Not in the 3rd edition (1964) of A Guide Book of English Coins.
  14. Mr T
    No joy with the first two but https://www.britnumsoc.org/images/PDFs/1967_BNJ_36_26j.pdf opened up for me.
  15. Mr T
    A shame he didn't publish the raw numbers for the lower denominations. I'm sure I read he got interested in the 1940s when he was in primary school (I think). I don't remember where I saw that though.
