"much scarcer than most believe though it suffers from the lack of halfpenny collectors IMHO"
Early milled halfpennies are always appreciated at our house. Well, by me anyway...
Nice addition to your collection Scott.

Just a bit of fill in the tail of the R. They are identical in all other respects.

I agree with terrysoldpennies, it's an attempt at induced corrosion to mask the obvious differences normally evident in the repro 1933 pennies - the verdigris looks 'applied' especially on the obverse and if you study the kings head the differences seen on the repros are still evident. I've reported it.
The fake corrosion is obvious, which would suggest the story is as bogus as the coin. Reported.

Didn't get a chance to look, and I'm out for the weekend (50 today), arghh!

Happy birthday for yesterday Stuart. All the best.
Fifty's quite a milestone, any nice prezzies?

Another lovely token Paulus.
Just noticed, that bloke's hands are even smaller than Trump's!

Mmm, true, I hadn't considered that. I'll let you know if I receive a reply.

Hi M,
Both are around Very Good, which is the grade below Fine.

And me. I've sent a message to the seller too as this one may be a genuine case of not knowing.

I made the exact same point to my wife while we were watching it.
(Cue rolling of eyes and a muttered: 'Here he goes again.'...

I think it may have ran until the allotted end time Stu (20:16 last night). I received one of those ebay last call reminders two hours before but decided not to bid after all
.
If it is listed for a third time we all could continue to report it.

His previous listings made me laugh, this one just baffles. We've entered unchartered territory here…..
That should read 'uncharted', not 'unchartered', but I'm sure you knew that…...

I'm not sure which of these listings offers the best chance of ridicule. I'm going for 'Anne looks a bit butch' as my critical contribution.

New additions.…..

OK, I'll take a stab at 1500-2k quid. And I like this in matte, IMO quite a nicely done depiction of a man not necessarily handsome...
Now there's an understatement if ever I read one. 'Not necessarily handsome'? Bulldog sucking a lemon would be my description. Though for all his shortcomings a half decent painter.

I'm Toxteth, then Allerton, then Toxteth again ( the late 1970s crappy bedsit years). Dovecote? I have a couple of friends who are originally from the Pilch Lane area. Also, back in the mid '70s, I had a girlfriend who lived in Huyton. We would often spend our Saturday nights at the Hillside pub then at the Hoe Down club, which I think was in the basement? This was all pre punk of course, after that it was the city centre and Eric's, The Grapes, The Armadillo etc.
Goodness me, Baldwins
