Unfortunately yes, if I'm honest it looks a tiny bit redder than my picture in hand but nothing like the picture I bought it based on. I was expecting something special.

One with lustre, don't see many of these around.
And here's what it actually looks like...
Still a nice coin but not better than the one I already have. The seller was kind enough to accept a return and cover the shipping costs though so no harm no foul.

Surely proofs aren't currency issues but on steroids.. There'd be spots all over the back..

So you get his photos and also the CC ones in the auction (bonus)
-
Steve also has one in his collection (Ex. R Harris, Ex. Dr. Findlow).

Be careful putting your phone number on an open forum Colin.

Anyone know?

What's the process? I.e you get the pop up form and enter the details but get the 403 when you click save or does it come up when you click edit profile?
Can you try clearing cache and cookies and try again (if you haven't already)?
I did mention cache clearing
although some others still had the problem after doing this.
It's like the age old rule of 'turn it off and on again', website problems are normally fixed by clearing the cache, history and cookies.

Just playing around with the data, the low estimate of the whole collection is £72,000 and the high £83,000.
So that's what it takes to build up a decent penny collection

Did anyone see this 1893 over 2? Sold for £317 on ebay.
It's been relisted by the winner, at £1,250!

I think I might do the same, Matt. As you say, another bid can be made after 17th if there's an issue. Must say as well that some of the coins look different in the Colin Cooke photos, to the way they look in Steve's.
Exactly what I was thinking, the benefit of having 2 sets of photos. Not normally the case and will be interesting to compare the ones I want to bid on when I have the time.
-
I'm not too sure either, I was going to put my bids in before that anyway and if there's a problem then I'll just resubmit again after the 17th. I agree though, I quite like the relaxed bidding format, easier to money manage and also have a think before you hastily put an excessive bid down.

Thanks Prax. It's nice to have 2 lots of pictures of the same coin, i.e Steve's pictures and also the CC pictures. Helps get a bit more of a grasp on what it might look like when you're not able to view the coins in hand.

I guess back then, but there are so many different 'limited edition' designs coming out what seems like weekly, it probably is a little more difficult to gauge what will be popular on the secondary market.

How are things now everyone? There were some IP addresses being blocked. They seem to have been added automatically, so I've removed them all now (and that were spammers have probably long since moved on to spamming somewhere else).
Spoke to Pete (PWA) he says his IP is still blocked and can't get on. Maybe others aren't replying because they also can't get on either
-
Very unlikely to get one, they were a highly collected design even before ran their article about how 'rare' it is. I had already completed my collection of 50ps probably a month before they did, I think I paid £5 for it on eBay!

Just google 'eBay snipe', there are plenty of sites and they'll walk you through it

I've had 4 or 5 emails/messages from different people with the 403 error, I suppose it was an issue with the host as it seems everyone was having the same problem. As far as I can tell it should be OK now though?
-
I can't lie, it's pretty nice out today.

It is the wear to the reverse die you are interested in. Developing flaws etc that allow you to sequence the obverses.
I suppose the first used being the straight R, as Jerry pointed out the rotated R examples have a very badly repaired A, even the one in the picture I posted it is easy to see.
-
I think just a collector with many, many spares!

Looking over 5 examples that I readily found online without much searching, 3 had a rotated R and 2 the straight R. Perhaps the straighter R is less common?

I did get one of these in the end thanks to @hazelman
I was wondering if the new rio olympics 50p will be circulating or is it only going to be available for a fiver from the Royal Mint or of course for a tenner on ebay (!)

Exactly, so you would think there would be some lustre, somewhere!
Oh well, onto the next.
I got those coins from Guy yesterday too so filled a few gaps. Need to start on the veiled heads now.
