PWA 1967

Yes i am sure its not simple or would be out.They use planes that pick up already filled huge tubs these are then dumped around the edges and have a number of planes being used to allow for them to constantly try and keep on top of it.They also have a chemical or something that is red that they also spray over everything ,the chemical is also an indicator as to were the plane has dropped the water for the next plane that comes a couple of minutes after. Sure they will soon have it under control as i have all the windows closed here

I bet the Spanish (other countries ) who are geared up for it wonder what we are doing as there is a resevoir on the video next to it and surely it should be used. We send a tractor out

EASY.................. Take note the other teams we are coming to get you

No mate......I dont do daft bets. Rashford not starting i dont think ,so will switch to Sterling Just be glad for them to win and no injuries

The first game nerves have gone now.......Time to kick on 4-0................... First Goalscorer...Rashford. Time of first goal...17 / 22 mins. We can only hope

1888 CGS price £40 Not any use to me or maybe anyone else £13 Posted. Pete.

Its a lot more exciting than looking at bloody ebay Mike Even if we dont buy anything its always interesting to see the prices they sell for.

Your last bit Mike about the company having a password is the one Mike ,I owned call centres and had sixty thousand business customers that we continued to look after the intitial sale and build a relationship with. Unfortunately we had that big a share of the market that competitors phoned up saying they were us as an easy introduction and assumptive. We therefore had passwords to ensure both parties were familiar with each other before the call was continued ....So yes secutity works both ways. However in the early days when we had know customers being polite ,courteous and listening to what the persons business wanted worked quite well Not all call centres tell lies and try to have people over and most reputable ones have a phone system that will record everything (even if the call is unanswered ) ,although the costs involved are high especially if you have hundreds of lines.The regulators should monitor the smaller groups of telesales teams just as much who in some cases have know other interest than making a quick few quid and are happy to lie to get it. All good fun and the choice is our own as to weather we listen or not. Pete.

Thats terrible and more to the point someone will of told them but they still sold it ,i hope it was returned. For an auction house not to listen and just going ahead with something as obvious , the cataloguer must of had a gun to his head

Well with a table cloth,brush,wheel trim,flip flops and sat in the bath on a box ,looking in the mirror i think Mr Wyon did a good job

No i never said that and obviously being new to the forum you are not aware of my views on dishonesty .....I also made a point of using HIM in block capitals . The person who bought it can ask and do what they want ,someone who didnt buy it or bid asking questions after it had sold i feel would not help the buyer. Some sellers unfortunately are not truthfull or honest and better to just avoid. it was quite hard typing as got a table cloth wrapped round me to see if the dapery on Britannia is correct All good fun. Pete.

Sounds like our good friend............If so surely your mistaken as everything he lists is correct and none of it shilled. If it was him i think he probably struggled to understand you as his English is nearly as bad as mine How do you mean he went back on the deal, if you bought it then told HIM what it was its hardly surprising.

Are you just guessing what it looks like Kev , i cant see any video or pictures

Think i better wait untill the wife goes out ,she thinks i am bonkers as it is without finding me sitting with a brush and wheel trim out of the lock up

They are only buying one coin a year Zoo ,everything else they find in change and so £20 not much to spend. They would probably think it was us with more money than sense and dumb

No i dont buy them Larry i just like looking at the pictures

Yes Mike i looked at the others and would not question that one.I suppose it all goes back to if your spending a few quid you need to view them to be sure. From the picture i would not bid on the F6a ,however maybe it is

Yes the one i have is IMO better to look at ,so wondered if there was another way to identify it ... R19

The cataloguer will know a lot more than me Mike but i have a F6 in a PCGS slab MS65 that was less than £500 and from the picture wasnt sure if i was maybe missing something

I didnt know were to post so here seemed as good a place as any. In the DNW Hiram Brown there is a penny attributed as a proof F6A ,there is Know lot number but the last one in the preview.Obviously i can only look at the picture and dont buy proofs but is there anything that confirms it as just looks a normal one and seen better currency than that one ? Any help would be appreciated as i have not got a clue. Pete. https://www.dnw.co.uk/auctions/catalogue/lot.php?auction_id=486&lot_id=1042

Thanks Richard. Yes i have noticed although only been collecting a few years the proofs going up and up.Maybe they have interest to more wide spread coin collectors or penny collectors who have most of the others.I was looking at the crocker and workman sales earlier (varieties) and very few would IMO acheive the same values now. I am just going to go in the cuboard and see if there are any mobiles

Hat Off Jerry and well spotted. If you keep adding them to Richards site they wont be rare anymore

Someone such as yourself Richard who has collected a long time and watched alot more than most ,what do you think. I think Jerry is on the right lines low grade varieties when more are found can end up were there is more than the collectors who are prepared to pay good money for them.Coins that are scarce if found in high grade will always command big prices such as the 1862/1 you bought. I dont think there is more than twenty penny collectors in the country who will pay more than £1K for a low grade variety and without new collectors there is nobody to sell them to as most may already have one. The question is Richard ....What do you think please ?. Pete.
