It's the grading companies - they're the ones I'm blaming. -

Just received an email from Sovereign Rarities with their latest offerings which contain items described as "Ultra Cameo" and "Deep Cameo". This is getting ridiculous. They seem to inventing dozens of new grades at the top end. Any excuse to charge a bit more...... -

Also, rev A date is 11 teeth wide, rev B is 13 teeth wide - simples. -

There may be a clue in that the vendor won't post to the UK ! -

Just goes to show the risks of buying coins from photographs alone. The camera lies like a cheap watch. -

You're absolutely right - surprised no-one spotted it before now - hopefully correct now. -
An in-focus photo would be helpful.

Picked up a very nice F28 a few days ago - auction estimate a very silly £80 - needless to say other people bid me much higher ! -
1860 Penny Freeman obverse 1*
secret santa replied to Martinminerva's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Right, so coincidentally you have a coin struck with the same dies that is in much better condition and recognisable as A+b. -
Nice 1863 penny - one day only - sensible offers only.

secret santa replied to Martinminerva's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Bernie, let me understand exactly what you're saying. Is it that only coins with reverse b that have that particular die crack and the close, sloping date figure 0 ? Whilst accepting that some reverse b coins have neither the die crack nor the 0 in the same position ? -

I've noticed that several people have put up what are ostensibly links to their Onedrives within a post - could this be a way of linking to a dangerous website ? I certainly never click on a spurious link within an email but some unscrupulous hacker might choose to tempt me down this route.

Spot on. But when a second one appears, the hunt is on !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Paddy, I'll print this out and have a play. -

secret santa replied to secret santa's topic in Forum technical help and support
Yes, it worked - generated a meaningless string of characters like yours but seemed to work. Thanks. My next question - if I create such a link, how do I then in the future prevent other people from accessing it if I wish ? -
Blakey I've added this and your 1874H 7 over 7 to my rarest penny website - hope you don't mind. Let me know if you'd like the pictures to be attributed to you.

Thanks again. Tell me, how did you obtain this link ? I have my own Onedrive with several files/folders. If I wanted to make a folder available as you have, what do I do ?
