  1. :D 

    Likewise, he who dares I suppose. I've not had as much luck as you but I've only been at it a few years. I suspect more and more people are out looking nowadays as well, things that I do spot normally jump in price towards the end as the variety is spotted by a few. Probably by most of you lot on here ;)

    I watched it too, but came to the same conclusion. But the lower bar does look weak. I have seen 1861 ONF pennies referenced, so maybe as the die wore there are some true examples out there.

    I am a bit sad that Zencoins has pulled the Ebay item that I and another were bidding on, presumably some-one has made an off Ebay offer. Not F6 as described, but Gouby BP 1860 A. Corrosion, but still a valuable coin, would have liked to compete at the end.☹️

    Not the first time that seller has done that either, quite annoying. Fair enough if there are no bids but once people are bidding on it then it seems quite unfair to pull it for an offer.

  3. Welcome to the forum DrP, it seems everyone must've been at the pub when you first posted, don't be disheartened by the lack of responses ;) They'll be along soon enough.

    I don't know too much about collecting maundy, although a set of my birth year is certainly on the list. I'm not too sure why people would separate the sets but I suppose needs must and it's got to happen to some of them.

    Well done on picking up the 2 pence for a fiver though, not too shabby at all.

    Nothing major, but lots of minor stuff. Dots on tridents and elsewhere, portcullis new pennies, the 1926 penny types, missing waves, 1903 open 3 minor types, now the 1918H penny etc. etc. Enough to justify a second edition in say a few years time. Plus I'd like to get some identifying photos of those varieties that I simply mention e.g. all the 1957 calm sea types, or the 1907 penny ones. Plenty to do, but I'm a bit too busy at the moment with other stuff. 

    A good list since the last book then. For the missing waves have you got all 4 - 1967, 1966, 1934 and 1921?

  5. Sorry bagerap I can't find any reason why it would be doing that. Chris managed to sort the issue out for Coinery, maybe when he comes along he will be able to do the same for you and REDD. It's strange that you can both access and post on the site but just the edit profile section isn't working, the 403 is a permission error so it's weird only one section isn't working. You all have permission to edit your profiles too. 

  6. Can you check to see if any of your plug-ins are preventing you from seeing the pop-up? I can edit your profile from here which suggests it's either an IP issue or a plug-in issue, I've check both of your IP addresses and neither are blocked, including any recently used ones.

  7. Lovely coin, better than my normal 1915 which really needs an upgrade too. I did buy a cracking one on eBay about a month a go for around £70 but the seller used the GSP and apparently didn't receive any tracking so we assumed it never arrived to them. Such a pain when coins go missing.

  8. Talking about the broken 5 in the 1915 penny, you mention that "Only the rounder head obverse appears to exhibit this breakage not the recessed ear observe."

    What is meant by rounder head? I was recently talking to Richard about this date because apart from the broken tooth we cannot seem to see any difference in the 2 obverses and it's almost impossible to see the recessed ear. Any new identifier would be excellent.
