Everyone to there own and would like to say..... If you put a chemical on a coin(not a toothpick,flick something off) then why do it. It is done to enhance a coin from its natural state. I can only comment on pennies(not hammered etc.) this is IMO cleaning ,else why do it ?. The Chemical is applied to do a job clean it and the Chemical is left and will not disperse and (of which it was only applied for) will still show. If you put water on a coin it will dull the tone /lustre but not show over time and can understand ,if you put acetone,acid,any cleaning agent .....Then its CLEANED If the buyer/seller are both happy then as always it does not matter This is only my opinion ...... If a coin is ok acetone would not of been put on in the first place ,but will still show. Never dip a valuable coin in ACETONE. Pete.

Think you mentioned an important issue ,they are now cleaned. I think unless really low grade and varieties you want to keep most are better left alone.

You keep coming up with some interesting coins Terry Good buy

I am just getting used to turning it on

Just spotted on Richards fantastic site another Chingford variety. I believe Chingford was the first to spot this one (tricky as i mentioned before ). Mine is not the best as only bought it for the Reverse A .......Extra line on shield. Its CGS 34619

Sorry Prax just noticed you had weighed it ,really interested and forgot your original post.

Yes thats what made me think when one sold on ebay it was tooled Richard.

Is yours the same diameter please Richard. Also Prax have you weighed it mate ?. The diameter ,weight and composition are surely the attribution. I still think looking at the edge its copper,but the coin is bronze .....which would make me assume its not right ?. Unless a coin was struck on a blank around the same time with the same weight..........but i cant think or know of one. Not another mention i can find anywere makes note of a sample or any pattern of this year. I am not the expert and find really interesting but have doubts. Pete.

I did have one and yes they are rare. Its in the envelope i am posting you tommorrow

Hat off Mike. Two good buys for years always sought after

The edge looks copper ,but the coin looks possibly cleaned bronze. Might be well off the mark but still an interesting coin. Pete

Nothing mate ,maybe you could just describe them

Cheers badgerap. Was not this one in particular although that is daft hammered (yes in his shed).... more looking through coins that are described as rare and just ........Rang tang. Yes a .....Noodle

Is it just me but know pictures Mike

This Noodle seems to think every coin he has is rare. This one is a bit different a............ hammered 1927 penny. 391378058635 Sorry i cant put the link up .........But is he just having a laugh

Yeah .......I will remember though Bob next time i buy one from you

Interesting coin Prax. Jac mentioned one a few weeks ago. Can you please tell me if the diameter is the same as the normal penny ?. Pete

Sorry did not notice the post above that ones nice if five is our lucky number

Its just a really bad grade and not worth buying/keeping.

Loads of questions looked at ids .........like being with the old bill thirty years ago Not much else i can say really apart from sellers using pay pal please check . For the sake of a phone call worth being sure .....before they just suspend you. Pete. Oh and i asked if i could use your account Mike........ but they said you had already blocked me

Well after another half an hour on the phone..........its sorted

Glad your happy Jerry. Told you it was a nice one Pete.

Anyway mike left me stuck for making pay pal payments,can i use your account please

Yes Mike i am aware now . The thing i was trying to do was just make people no what may happen. I didnt have a clue and without warning just shut it down. I have not got a problem with people making checks but feel they could of dealt with it better. Perhaps they could of made things easier ,rather than just give me a headache Pete.
