  1. It does show that it was paired with at leased two different obverse dies, and possible more. have you any idea how scarce or rare they are Richard ? .
  2. i've just noticed that yours is paired with a different Obverse as it has a Narrow Date , my example has a wide date.
  3. 1858 F over B in DEF I bought this one just last week and it arrived yesterday. Many thanks to a tip off from a friend.
  4. Nice one Gary, I must confess I didn't think it would get a 63 .
  5. Its nice to see new collectors , Good luck with your future finds.
  6. Nice one Richard , if you keep this up you'll have to sell the entire collection to buy the next coin up the price ladder.
  7. No Mike, too much for me just at the moment, but you never know just like an 11 bus another may come along quite soon.
  8. How about lot 620 with the F38 £650 !! https://www.dnw.co.uk/auctions/catalogue/lot.php?auction_id=545&lot_uid=355912&search=1
  9. I Though you knew about Gary's example Mike, yes I guess my ones about EF/ EF+ and Gary's AU but, not quite uncirculated me thinks . Is there a perfect one out there . ?
  10. You've told everyone now Jon. That one wont be cheap.
  11. My F164a was on here posted some years back, it was better than my F164 until this latest find.
  12. Its funny a short while back I remember Mike showing us his new found f164 and saying just how hard it is to find one above EF , and I must admit I was thinking at the time that my own example was only about VF, then low a behold this turns up . A few bag marks , but for £23 .
  13. I believe a high percentage of pre. 1946 [ half silver ] and pre. 1920 [ full silver ] was withdrawn much earlier, but whether it was replaced in large quantities by the cupro-nickel before the final withdrawal I don't know.
  14. I hadn't read that Richard . Interesting
  15. Link below Richard. https://www.rct.uk/collection/443672/edward-viii-pattern-penny
  16. Its those Bunny Pennies Again, they just won't go away.
  17. This is the Royal Mint's Example Richard RMM 52 , below is the blank side and the Rubber Pattern RMM 74. Also I noticed that your example 8 on the Rare coins is the Example held by the Royal Collection Trust . Terry
  18. The only battle ship one I can think of on a penny was the mono faced Edward viii Reverse .
  19. I should have gone to Specsavers.
  20. All right maybe even a ship.
  21. I don't know if its of any interest, but i came across this pattern 1894 penny the other day , and wondered just how iv'e managed to miss it in all my years of collecting , it is after all listed in Freemans on page 233 Plate xiv Pic. B terrible picture though. It looks to be the same reverse as the 2mm 1895 but has an unusual looking boat on the right. http://www.coinfactswiki.com/wiki/Great_Britain_1894_penny_KM-790
  22. Yes I'd say F10 as well
  23. Will he have to pay export duty on top of that to bring it back to the uk . ??
