US and GB are develope countries if there are problems it is very little compared to the undevelope or third world counties or developing countier like Philippines ,the thing is everything is getting harder that kind of situation is going to knock on the doors of develope countries that health service are pure business and not a public service just a opinion.

  18. Thanks jason for pointing the rules in metal detecting. Maybe you can make a topic in discussing about metal detecting and how they varies in one place to one country.
  19. Thank you Chris. The oz is just a convertion of grams to ounce.
  20. Their is a mode first in grams or g. then in ounce or oz. then ozt dont not what it meant but I weight the coins in oz not in ozt. If the coin is made of 2 or more metal using the second mode the oz, which will register the metal that is high in composition. For example if the coin is made of .75 silver the oz will appear in the scale will be the ounce content of silver in the scale or I should measure it in ozt,I did weight peace dollar and irish 20 shillings the oz is correct as listed in ref. books. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ounce#International_troy_ounce Any info.
  21. Just bought one last sunday. Most coins are in same weight as describe in ref. books. Several question. What is the thickness of halfcrown 1947 downwards and 2 shillings or florins 1947 downwards? what is the oz weight of those florins? weight some florins and the oz weight is .40 or .39 is this normal weight? It is possible that a flan from half crown is use in florins?
  22. Thanks hussulo. Just notice 12 sided 3p some are dent QE downwards. Curious tried to dent it with my nail it was easily mark,maybe other 3p are made of different metal. Next week post a picture.
  23. Seen some 12 sided three pence with a dent on them,looks like something was press on it maybe a edge of other coins. Is 12 sided 3p is easily dent?
  24. The 1920 series of crown its quite expensive mintage less than 10,000,proof coins others mint 5,000 to 20,000.is the crowns overvalued or undervalued? The gold should it be BV in fine unless other series is much more expensive. Coin in high grade is very expensive most of things are expensive now, dont know about the higher grade for other expert can follow the market in auction house if they appear,dont know but pricing coin should be from BU to fine across the grades and its mintage but you and other expert can judge on this, Im just comparing other countries when mintage is below a million in high grade is a good find maybe this is not applicable to GB for GB predecimal coins maybe are stock in most of the closet in GB and easily available. Other countries like Canada and Australia and US are also collecting GB coins and maybe other dealers are selling coins in those countries overvalued or undervalued?maybe they are back tracking maybe because slab and high grade coins are very expensive,or maybe GB coin market and its value is second to the US market even in raw coins compared to US in slab both are becoming very expensive. Maybe that is the difference between metal value and collecting value of coins. Is this for GB market or world wide market?like the gold penny. In times of inflation is the coin value is the same?or it will go downwards?
