  1. Any coinfair here in ireland,I seldom go out and as far I can remember only held once a year in here.
  2. No web site for new slabbing company thats is new. still on process on recruiting expert,guess the expert turn there back or ignore them. Hope that the final result will be good.
  3. Maybe good timing,there is a info that james taylor left anacs not sure Well even if you dont work fulltime in slabbing company others can be a part of it especially identifying errors and variety, just read article in the past that they have special previelage for those persons. Those that will against it will be a watchdog while the comp. make profit also the govt. taxing all expensive slab coins, just learn one term in other site SEINOIRAGE. If the company still dont exist its all drawing and planning for me,since most european are brotherhood of collector guest it will not affect them that much.
  4. Thank you chris, can someone can purchase them online on rotographic form, print edition I think is collectible item and expensive
  5. Here is the picture, I did measure using a ruler the result of the diameter is 23 and 24 mm average of 23.5 that is the best I can do.
  6. Just bought a gold coin that what an antique dealer told me ,not her field of expertise, dont know if it is real one slightly smaller than 50 eurocents almost the same weight looked at the web they are near ,it must be a giunea, slightly smaller not full center stuck,some line on the edge spiral or going downward, not in to this kind of collection,very old, just happen I came by into it so, I bougth it even if it is a replica or a fake there is nothing I can do about it,cannot post picture my wife computer is on the shop for repair, what are the pointers in Identifying the three,fake,replica and real, compare thier weigth just one of the member advice to hold it in small finger almost not sure exactly near or same weigth as 50 eurocents.
  7. She should for crying out loud, think about it, her image is on more coins than any other person in history. Longest living monarch in UK,why her face is in every denomination of the coin she is still alive other countries put images of loss leaders in thier coin what is the story in it.
  8. Nice picture and info rob on uncirculated and proof coin,Thanks,
  9. I didnt now that, Thank you for the info,Hope that he will have the same faith like others in the past, there was a sumpre court ruling on economic sabotor slipping coins out of the country.
  10. It is like looking on image coin gallery even you cannot have all the coin because of budget you can have one even in pictures,especially when the picture is authentic.
  11. I think the value of 2 pence and 1 penny exceed it value and worth melting down like the case of 1906 peso US-PHIL. coin,They nab a man trying to slip a bulk of 1906 peso because the silver content is much more than its face value,.so the goverment UK issued a noticed,It is alarming.
  12. Thank you rob.
  13. So Rob the premium is only available in the people who follow the market regulary, there is no average or base line in all coin denomination and condition cannot really convert it into USA dollar, for more info example of the series of coin in GB on penny 1902 up in world coin catalog says original coin in mint and lustre command a premium but the value of uncirculated almost reach 500 dollars. SORRY double check almost reach 100 dollars in uncirculated in normal struck in raw coin.
  14. Thank you scottishmoney,those things you mentioned they are new to me, inflation gone high since several years ago but the value of a pence is worth more than they are and making one is expensive Im having a hard time understabding the value of cent, since you mentioned that you cannot buy anything else on a cents or a pence they are worthless, some brand them as worthless coin, since the sum of cents and pence is still large sum of money pulling them out will have a big effect on common people as Chris mentioned that 5 pence should be a lowest denomination as I understand UK is one of the highest cost of living how much more the effect of that in prices and way of living.more likely the figure who is in the lowest denomination will be also the things in the past as I observe in some countries.
  15. If an expert coin collector or a dealer told a novice that your coin is not worth a premium, what premium in uk pounds or USA dollars, is premium is same as a major purchase in coin collecting? if they say major purchase it means you know what you are buying for its worth? what are the guide if you are buying major piece or coin.
  16. Thank you scottishmoney,meaning to say if a denomination is pull out from the circulation they will going to be melted,what they will going to do with the metal they melted?is the denomination or a coin will be change to other metal or it will be permanntly out in circulation like the lincoln cent it bare the name of one prominient figure in USA,or his image will pass to the next higher coin or denomination? does lincoln start at the beginning in 1 cent or he is placed in much more higher denomination in the past,Ive noticed that a prominient figure of one country is place on its first or lowest denomination, what will happen if they remove the coin fron circulation.
  17. Why is that there is a rumor or news that copper plated cents will be change or pull out in circulation, In the past ,there is a rumor that 1 & 2 cents in euro will be pull out because most of them will be place in the jug or bottle and not used in circulation,adding all that is minted it is a large sum of money not being used in circulation,There is also an article that US one cent will be also pull out in circulation, and now I saw a page that UK 2 pence and 1 penny will be change for thier face value or making one is more than a face value of the coin, Is this mean infation,If they will be pull out in circulation or change thier metal content this mean that acquiring copper or mining one is expensive or thier is a shortage of metal for coin,or making a coin now is not thier face value,considering that those 3 lowest denomination of the coin is use in circulation in develope or first world countries.
  18. Plus and minus the ration of our population today which is 6 to 8 billion and thier staple food what if 14c britain or worst things happen today in global scale, lucky enough europe is rich.
  19. As Geordie mentioned the cost of war, this is one of the past event that took place in the past that affected the lives of men then soon affected thier living, as for the things get unstable in every misfortune not sure whether they will be one in the future, for europe including britain suffer severe strike of misfortune from war,famine and plaque for its population is one of the smallest in the world, for now they are one of the richiest continent, For me this topic is very interesting because it does not only cover the value of troy ounce of silver or gold in that time for it is very handy to have one, or how much money the goverment have, it goes upto the stalple food that may not become stable in time of troubles,it goes more on what are the situation of britain in 14c and at present and where it is going, what are thier priorities in life as for all the cases maybe it is always a barometer of staple food the end product of commodity for someone to survive as I said ONE DINAR CAUSE A ONE DAY WORK for in the forum mentioned 1/d to 1d for the bad and the best example of bread how much more for 2d a day wage of infantry man, it didnt happen in your history but it is more handy if you have silver for a loaf of bread,a loaf or 2 loaves of bread will not go far for a family in one day.
  20. But bread is a stable or staple commodity then and now, before anyone buy something he must have food or loaves of bread to last for the day since it is mass produce today it means that it is cheaper but should be divided by wages ratio, let say 50pence or 1pound for loaf of bread today, 48 pounds that is 6 pounds * 8hrs the bottom end 48 pounds or 48/50pounds for the upper end 10pounds * 8 hours is 80 pounds or 80/50pence, for 14c britain 2d/loaves of bread, then how many 2d/loaves of bread in 40 shillings then that amount or number of loaves of bread to be converted in present britain in a day work which is 48 pounds bottomend and 80 pounds for upper end.
  21. Thank You Geordie, so the stable or staple food then is loaf of bread, last upto now, for a infantry man can afford the loaf of bread so the minimum wage worker can also afford it, unless that britain is now a middle class society which they are the majority the base was change then the calculation well have a different result, so it is important what base you are going to use, between 14cents britain and present britain the number of bread bougth for a day work will also determine the purchasing power of the money in 14cents britain and in present britain this ma also conclude the value of money then and now, if some one know the value of loaf of bread in 14cents britain you can know which era is well off, or do it in reverse how do you calulate the value of bread in 14cents britain,
  22. Premedival europe Present britain peasant became infantry man minimum wage earner 2d per day/loaf of bread 6 to 10pounds*8hrs=60 to80/loaf of bread find there ratio, result will be fraction almost perfect number use the base line peasant and minimum wage earner for majority use loaf of bread for stable food if not use potatoe if appicable plus minus correcting factor of silver troy ounce then and silver troy ounce now,
  23. How much is loaf of bread in 14cets britain Tom you are using seargeant can you use private for they are more in number and grass root of the payroll a foot soldier salary or so modest enough for salt.
  24. Thank you bronze,Great collection,now I know more when clayton wrote the phrase the colon becoming more central on his website, on stages or in process that the colon became central.
