1903 open 3 is the only one I needed. Will get one eventually

Thanks John. Some great information in that lot. Cheers Brian

Yes. Definitely metal pulled away from the obverse in perfect line with the obverse. Tried to look up and attribute the type of error but just can't find it. Thanks

Will stick with Colin Cooke. Had a great service, no over pricing of postage and a really friendly service. Can see what your saying within reason Rob but not for the coins mentioned at the hammer price. Prospective in p&p relative to value is called for. As for paper work and a jiffy bag+ VAT to double postage!!!!! Sorry seriously cannot justify, especially after taking into consideration their high buyers premium.

Sorry but £12 postage is an absolute rip off from a company already over pricing its services. As for £5 storage a day that is a bloody disgrace especially taking into consideration the size of the items. Can't justify those costs no matter how much you try... No justification

Hi Guys I would normally put any error coins I have in the "Dies, Clogs, Et all" post. But as this is a foreign coin thought it best to post here. Thanks to another member of the forum, I have inherited some amazing new coins and am having some great fun researching and learning about them all. I wont mention the member directly in case he wishes to stay anonymous. Enough to say I am a very grateful and happy collector with hours of research and catolaguing to do. Massive Thanks agian . Anyway here is a great little coin found amongst the coins I recieved. It has a mint error but I have no idea what it would be called. Any help appreciated. Cheers Brian

Very nice.

Thanks Sword

Hi All Got what I think is a bargain at the local Car Boot Sale this morning. I believe it is a 1 oz solid silver Medallion commemorating Ping An of China finance / insurance company joining the Hang Seng index in 2007. Thanks to Ian "Nutsaboutcoins" for the help. However I would love to have it translated completely. Any help appreciated. Thanks Brian

Here is my latest error penny. A 1901 with flaws to both sides. Sorry for the pics but my digital microscope gave up the ghost and has been filed in the B1N. Waiting on a new one arriving very soon.

The 4 tokens above cost less than £13 in total.

One I missed from the other day. Another Condor Farthing.

Thanks Pete. Just checked that out. Definitely the same Farthing in what I would say was the same comparable condition. Cheers Brian

A couple of Condor tokens I got yesterday. Think I got them for a good price but have no idea of value

Hi Guys Just curious if anyone would know how I could find out the mintage figures for the 2006 Silver 20p Britannia. I got one for a great deal and have no worries regarding what its worth. Would just like to know how many are out there. I believe it was only issued via Royal Mint in the "Just For You" packs along with a George VI sixpence (but could be wrong!). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Brian

This is the second a Elizabeth II 1959 half penny with lamination error.

Just got a load of half pennies and came across a couple of interesting mint errors. The coins aren't brilliant but the errors are nice examples. The first is a George VI Off Strike.

Thanks, will do.

Hi All, Can anyone give me the etiquette for sending coins to the Royal Mint for checking. The coins are not valuable but seem to have missed some process or other. Just want to clarify what has happened. Does anyone have the correct address. Do you send a returns envelope, etc... Thanks all in advance.

I would be interested in a mint condition one depending on price as I don't have one. I couldn't possibly buy all!!!!!! Think even a dealer would be hard pushed with that many! Wow...

The second

First time posting in this section but have started picking up a few nice foreign pieces. Nothing rare just a few nice represenations. Here are the first 2 which cost me very little

Hi Scott I have had the chance to look through £6 worth of 2015 & 2016 pennies. There is s definite change in the J.C, the 2016 I can vissably make out as J.C the 2015 is just that to small to be 100% on without a loop. I haven't managed to find any crossover as yet, that isn't saying one still may not turn up. I have done a close up of the 2 designs at the same magnification. Cheers Brian

Thanks Ian.

Thanks Pete. Also got a plug in for the forum. Have found a considerable amount more since. Will put up my findings on full once I have compiled it correctly.
