Colin Adams coin
£1550 plus commission !
Very nice indeed but, as I bought this one for £175 delivered, you can count me happy enough.

Then if you click on 'see other items':
But, if you check out the feedback, buyers are happy enough so who are we, what's the use, etc. etc.

Impressive place have been to a couple of antique and collectors fairs there, and it really is a great place to visit
The fairs are held in the main hall, the concert room is in another part of the building and is open for musical performances and recitals no more than a few times each year. It can also be booked for weddings.

Must be someone who peruses this forum - it's been pulled.
That was me Chris.
The owner believed it to be genuine and was distraught when told it is a modern repro. He paid genuine 1905 money for it some time ago on eBay and is now trying to get his money back. I'm told they're not being very helpful and so he's approached trading standards. I did suggest he sign up as a member here in case anyone would be able to help but he's having trouble registering. If anyone does have advice he could be messaged on eBay via the contact the seller link. I think his feedback profile attests to his fair dealing and his listing of a coin he paid a lot for believing it genuine. On being told it was fake he immediately cancelled the listing.

In 1979 I was pecked on the cheek by Mary Wilson of the Supremes. Does this count?

Never saw the Who but, same time frame, Stones (Mick Taylor era) at the Liverpool Empire '71 was pretty special.
Check out the Marquee film from the same tour and the '72 US films for a taste.
Then there was Ziggy's farewell tour in '73, and me touching his bare foot. With this hand, yes, this one here. Didn't cure anything, unfortunately......

Fantastic price wish that coin was mine , its been missing from my farthing collection for years
Would grade it as Good fine and worth every penny of £100
You are very lucky to have it
Possibly a little more than £100. This damaged specimen realised £400 hammer at LCA five years ago.

Whatever it is it must be pretty potent.

Just his surname on coins I think.
Yup, can't argue with that.
The reason I put up this screen shot here was, I suppose, to illustrate the extent to which I consider coinage design has lost it's way. From timeless, classic, objects of beauty, to images one might find printed on a plastic nursery lunchbox. Yes, I know, as it is with stamps, it's all about editions and 'collect 'em all' but I guess I'm just a little too set in my ways to see the attraction.

People are actually bidding for these. Incredible.

How the hell can they grade that MS64? It clearly has wear on it. It is disgraceful, and blatant to anybody who actually looks at it before buying it just on the grade.
And described as 'choice uncirculated' by the seller. Ridiculous.

Oh, what a f**king surprise.
I'm still smarting after being suckered in to pay £500 for a scrap value sixpence..... (er, not).

I have two Commonwealth pennies. Admittedly, neither are as good as this, but one isn't far off. I also have two Commonwealth half groats, one of which is a very nice, fully round, EF.
Maybe I should have it slabbed and rake in the oof as our cats have been reminding me it's months now since I last supplied them with shiny new tiaras.
