  1. Welcome ! Florins are a good choice ! Nice size coin, don't go back too far. Gothics, and the E7 are very nice design too. cheers Garrett.
  2. ha ha Peter ! Well done men for not letting this scum rip you off. cheers Garrett.
  3. Yes thanks Polly and welcome to the forum. Looks like England and Germany were getting very close in 1949. cheers Garrett.
  4. amyway Mark Welcme to the forum ! Thanks for posting, you have us all intrigued in your coin/story. Hope you stay around., and good luck with the Crown cheers Garrett.
  5. Does it have a reeded edge ? I don't know enough about these to say either way. You could always try slabbing it to find out for sure.... cheers Garrett.
  6. I would guess those coins would be from a well known collection ?
  7. Welcome Kev ! You will finds lots of interesting threads here. don't forget to stop and eat once in a while.... cheers Garrett.
  8. I'd have that coin. Sorry. Charlie 2 didn't gash the neck on this one because he had a hundred of them, and missed the neck on this one, he was so furious. All bullshit aside, I'd have that coin *. It's just the price we're hagglin' over. cheers Garrett. * provided it's genuine.
  9. Peck, 2GB back in the 80's sounds very impressive !!
  10. missed this thread earlier. That is a great find ! Congratulations !!
  11. Could ER stand for Elizabeth Regina ? i.e. Queen Elizabeth (1st).
  12. I'm a bit late but happy New Year Peter and everyone from me as well !
  13. Very interesting ! My *guess* is double-struck '5'. Only a guess, thanks for showing us. cheers Garrett.
  14. metal detector and a shovel maybe ....
  15. That's a lovely James I shilling that would fit into a Stuart collection !
  16. Welcome Kiva. It's a pity the coin wasn't in better condition.
  17. hhhmmmmm interesting. Cant say I'm an expert in grading and am sitting here with the "Grading British Coins" book on my iPhone. I can't see enough wear on the lions nose, stones below the crown, or the kings ear to mark it below EF..... Just my opinion though.....
  18. Wow you have the book already that was quick !
  19. Tokens can have quite attractive designs and a lot of them offer an insight into life at the time. If you look through the "Show us your copper and bronze" thread you will see many beautiful examples.
  20. Hi Scott Thanks very much for your great contributions to this forum. your post are very much appreciated by me, and I'm sure by others. I have just ordered a copy of the peck book from Rob to be sent to you (took me friggin ages to find Rob's site !!, it's rpcoins, right ???). Hope you enjoy. Thanks again for the contributions. Rob, please let me know if my order was lacking any information. cheers Garrett.
  21. Goodness how beautiful ! Is there a half-farthing included in the set ?
  22. Welcome Alex ! Yes will be interesting to see a pic. No numbers, date, or monarch ? Big guess but may not be a coin...
  23. Absolutely. Those are the coins I look at again and again. I didn't buy anything this time but have my eye on a couple of nice coins when budget permits. cheers Garrett.
