It was that good then!!!!
There's certainly a starkness to the darkness

It really depends on the metal.
Have a look here, it's quite informative.

I'll go 50p.

What's the significance of the low ball grade cartwheel penny?
Probably there just to show the size/thickness as opposed to the design or denomination.

Although hopefully more excusable, I more recently purchased a 1932 in MS66RB for about 140 USD....
Sounds like a very good purchase. Pics if you can VS!

Crikey, they're popping up all over the place
It's funny because the (confirmed) email address this person has used can be found here;
http://www.reliableoildealsconsultancy.com/hallofscam.html
which is a 'Hall of Scam'. If you're interested, search for 'Scam Lot #2' and it's person number 1 called 'Nicole' (matches Nicky123)

I wouldn't be able to spot a matt coin if it was in front of me, proofs/matts/proof matts/VIPs etc. that's probably why I stick with circulation

I have a penny its 1916 and silver not copper is it rare
1916 pennies aren't copper anyway, and probably not but if you can post pictures or any other information it would help

Nice purchase, have you got a reverse shot Richard?

Welcome to the forum Jayser.
As you mentioned, people on eBay like to take the piss, unfortunately your coin's worth £2, the error doesn't do much to the value here.

Just checked that link, Matt and it has my photo as a follower !!!!! Something very strange happening.
The plot thickens!! It seems like something has gone awry during the sale/messaging/refund process.
I'd be happy to send them an email to see if they respond, just let me know.

Is it not this seller?
Seems strange to do that, and checking their feedback they don't actually sell much. Sounds like something went wrong somewhere.

Sad, or just that Barcelona is a bit quiet at this time of year?.
No, it's that the joke went over your head
I have no idea how many border teeth there are.

There's 88 border teeth.

Just bumped into this while reading an article on coin world.com This is an American price guide for British coins, how accurate depends on what you collect i guess
http://www.coinworld.com/content/dam/cw/coinvalues/foreign/2016/090516%20-%20%20British%20Values.pdf
That's pretty interesting, added to the price guide section

Hi Matt and welcome,
Nothing special unfortunately. Don't pay much attention to the prices on eBay they're always 1p to a million and everything in between. If you run across anything like this in the future and want to double check, search on eBay but take a look at the completed listings and it'll give you a much better idea of value.
All the best

Is it mounted? Looks like it's in a holder and only the holder is mounted

Provenance I have some from the collector I bought it from.
To get provenance before this without paperwork would be near impossible.
I would appreciate any information on this coin as I strive to learn as much as I can about my coins as when I retire I have intentions of a book.
All contributors will get a mention - your pseudonym could be "Señor español dinero"
I am going to PM you some thing to look at . . . .
In which case I think it was from when KN were trying to secure rights to supply blanks for the London Mint, and having the equipment themselves to actually strike coins they wanted to create examples of what they could produce as well. I suspect that's what lead to them being brought in in 1918 & 1919, although as has been noted the obverse is very weakly struck which might explain why they were attempting to produce examples during Eddy's reign and didn't actually create any pennies until a decade later.
Attempts at expansion I would guess.

Three more fake bun pennies here and in seller's other listings, though these are all listed as forgeries
It seems everything he is selling are counterfeits, however he has noted that fact in all the titles.

The coin in the photo is mine in my collection. I have searched for info and come up empty handed. I did enjoy you motto: There are 2 types of people in this world, those with the ability to extrapolate information from missing data - This obviously applies to me :-)
Thanks
So are you looking for provenance or information on the trial piece itself?

That look very much like the same coin as mine but with far more detail.
Are you doing this to upset me ?
Ah sorry Guy I thought you were looking for one
I obviously mis-read your comment.
However, there seems to be more information in those lots about the coin in question so you might get something extra for your records..
The first example also seems to be missing the border rings on the obverse, maybe a weak strike but I can't spot a hint of them. Perhaps a different trial design?
