If it helps anyone, you can see the pictures for your coins if you have the UIN;

Using Paul's example -  http://www.coingradingservices.co.uk/img.php?u=39472&f=r&  - if you change the 39472 for your UIN you can see the reverse. If you then change the 'f' at the end (&f=r&) to a b, it will show the obverse.

Example obverse - http://www.coingradingservices.co.uk/img.php?u=37060&b=r&

Example reverse - http://www.coingradingservices.co.uk/img.php?u=37060&f=r&

[what are these.And are they worth anything.]

Yes, please don't clean them  

[Selling an Error Coin]

Hi welcome to the forum. What do you mean by downturn?

Also I wouldn't get too excited, there a plethora of error coins out there with little defects like this and they don't sell for a lot.

Well spotted Terry

Some interesting weather here at the moment too.. 31 degrees but with crazy thunder and lightning.

It is DH-296 (common), I agree with you @Nordle11.  I believe all of the halfpennies dated 1788 have edge lettering of "PAYABLE IN ANGLESEY LONDON OR LIVERPOOL".  Both of the halfpennies I posted above have this edge inscription (DH-275 and DH-282), though neither is explicitly noted in Dalton and Hamer.  The 298a is noted as being different because it has a non-standard edge inscription of "PAYABLE IN LANCASTER LONDON OR BRISTOL".

Truly a superb token @Nordle11, still can't believe the price you got it for.  Looks lustrous and wonderful in your pictures!

Ok, that clears it up then! Thank you for checking 

And thanks for the kind comments, it really looks 100 times better than the seller photos, I didn't realise how large and weighty the halfpenny would be! Fits nicely to the side of the penny collection

I'll try to get out my D&H and figure this one out.  @Nordle11, can you post your pictures of the token and give us the exact edge lettering of the token?

-Brandon

Thanks Brandon, any help is appreciated. The edge lettering reads "Payable in Anglesey London or Liverpool - * -"

Sorry, I didn't see these  yes I do have it.

[Let's See Your Copper Coins, Tokens, Or Medals!]

I'm 99% sure it's 296 because of the space between E and N in HALFPENNY and it's 26 acorns, but D&H only lists 298 with edge lettering. Any ideas @brg5658?

If it is 296 it won't have any edge lettering

Hmm, it has the edge lettering..

Not discounting '9's, the above comments apply to all digits where variation has been noted.

From steamy Kyoto, where we have just walked miles to see red arsed monkeys being fed peanuts.

Jerru

Is Jerru your Japenese moniker?  

[five pence coin]

Unfortunately not, but is a nice example of die fill. 

[403 forbidden?]

Sorry REDD, I just tried to add it for you but it also gives me the 403. @Chris Perkins not sure I can help with this one.

[five pence coin]

Welcome Leanne. Do you have a picture?

[1904 Penny with 4 pointing to tooth]

Agreeing with Jerry, the Gouby X has had a design change whereas hand punched date digits can and will be positioned slightly differently when new dies are being hubbed. I also have a tilted 4, but it's still slightly different to the example in Steve's collection.

There's something familier about that picture. I think it has been lifted from somewhere.

Yeah it's from Tony C's site (coins-of-the-uk). Someone bought it already anyway
