  1. Well remembered AH. If anything, Terry, it serves as confirmation of your own findings. @DaveG38 do you mention anything about the curved E or the size of the 0 in the date or only regarding the spacing between the numerals? Sorry no book to hand.
  2. Welcome to the forum Euromen, someone should be along shortly to help but please don't open multiple threads for the same question. Unfortunately I have very limited knowledge of hammered coins so I won't be much help.
  3. Great eye Terry, and very well detailed. This could be part and parcel of trying to iron out the problems they had from changing the bust design, differing shapes/sizes of numerals and fonts etc. A question, as I don't have an F160 to compare, does the E in ONE also differ between these varieties? The F160 is hard enough as it is... don't say I need to find 2 of the buggers
  4. Thanks Terry, I'll have a look now.
  5. Bit late to the party but happy holidays everyone! Hope you're not all too hungover
  6. Strange, because each and every time I've spoken to her, she has reminded me of the fact she is selling her husbands coins because he has a terminal illness. A fact which she has shared with many for some reason. And she always signed off with Shelly. Also I have no idea what that listing means
  7. Thanks Paul, I was looking for the coin prices though, as in some sort of comparison in the price changes CGS makes of their valuations. For example they valued a 1901 penny - CGS 80 at 50 quid in 2015, then 60 quid in 2016. For example.
  8. Does anyone have a copy of CGS prices for either 2015 or 2014? I remember exporting it at one point but cannot find it for the life of me. Thanks.
  9. That was my F164A lol Good haul Pete.
  10. Jerry more or less hit the nail on the head there. I've bought from Shelly before when she first started listing all these pennies and alas the coins were cleaned, I got in touch and explained that they weren't advertised as such and she told me she didn't know if a coin was cleaned or not, and I returned them for a full refund, including postage. I wouldn't buy from her again, but in her defence the return was trouble free, albeit a bit intense.
  11. Do you have a pic Peter?
  12. I think it was because of the ghosting problems they had, but not 100%. There might be something in the prologue of Freeman about it? I know they darkened some farthings because at the time people were trying to pass off the newly struck ones as half-sovereigns.
  13. If you can tell me where anyone was discourteous I'm all ears, otherwise you came here for free advice and then didn't bother telling any of us who showed interest that you'd listed them, so yes, manners cost nothing. If you cannot take criticism, Paul, I suggest not logging on to any forum at all. Rest assured, you won't need to block my ID.
  14. Where did you come from? Welcome to the forum, and thanks for linking Looks like they quoted @copper123
  15. I'm sarcastic and I have one surgestion, but it's not "spend more money on a decent coin"
  16. You're welcome Steve, here's the last lot you sent me. If it's so many though, it would probably be beneficial to do some reading up on each coin, you'll learn a great deal just researching them individually. Sorry I can't help with the identification, someone will have a better idea anyway
  17. Pics in question:
  18. A nice Christmas present for when you get back anyway. It does look like another S under there, but having it in hand will probably yield better results.
  19. Looks like it's just double-punched, seems to follow the same curves. Can you take a close-up of just the S?
  20. I'd agree with you there Brian, that it's a chip in the die. I wouldn't necessarily class it a variety in the sense of a design change, but as a curio that one can look out for, as you said.
  21. What was the interesting thing about it?
  22. If your website has good information on coins/coin collecting, post away, free information is more than welcome. However if it's just your site where you sell coins, probably best not to.
  23. Just because it took you 3 seconds doesn't mean it's pointless Anyway, it took me 1 second to know it's not a mule so you're just wasting 2 seconds there. Which is kinda pointless.
  24. Not exactly pointless if it can be used to confirm a variety
