  1. I refuse to draw a line anywhere. 1872:
  2. How was it described at the Heritage auction he claims as provenance?
  3. Likewise. Think I filled 26 gaps.
  4. A seller to avoid. Does a nice line in silver plated 2ps and Chinese fakes too. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Unidentified-Tiny-Ancient-Celtic-Geometric-Type-Silver-Coin-6mm-Diameter/292424026458?hash=item4415d4895a:g:A-kAAOSwwZtaakOy
  5. I don't have an 1897 O'NE penny - could it be a feature common to all?
  6. Cheers. As far as I know the dot between the letters in ONE is documented but not sure about the others. Where's Pete when you need him?
  7. I can't see the pictures without signing in to something. Which I have no intention of doing. Are you able to post them here please?
  8. I think the odds of receiving the pictured coin are about the same as receiving a penny farthing bicycle.
  9. I said description, not title: Uncirculated 1862 Victoria farthing penny in amazing condition very old and rare coin Penny 1862 Small Date from Halfpenny die Freeman 41dies 6+G, Fine and superior to most examples seen of this type, Very rare with all major details very clear, the finest we have handled, and possibly one of the finest knownexamples http://londoncoins.co.uk/?page=Pastresults&searchterm=1862+Halfpenny&searchtype=1 Lot 2981, the penny.
  10. Description robbed from LCA but not sure about the pictures. But definitely a bargain as worth £1600+ and up for just £350. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Uncirculated-1862-very-rare-Victoria-farthing-penny/202201957087?hash=item2f142d02df:g:kYQAAOSw57xaaLuW
  11. You're welcome. The green residue could be safely removed from the silver with a little acetone. The pennies aren't worth much in that condition although it is still worth checking for varieties. For example, if the I in BRITT of the 1911 penny points directly to a border tooth then it'd be worth somewhere around £40.
  12. Pictures...
  13. Can you give us a general idea of what you have? Date range, photos of a couple of the best ones maybe? Someone might be able to give you better advice that way.
  14. Interesting first post grkshef. Welcome to the forum. Someone clever will turn up in a bit and let you know.
  15. Mine's 2005. Prices now about what I'd like to pay.
  16. Standard Friday night entertainment round these parts. Nothing to see here...
  17. Oh hell, that's an expensive mistake for someone.
  18. I'm not entirely sure you could class ebay as a sovereign nation but they might as well be.
  19. Thought they were based in Luxembourg or somewhere not subject to UK law?
  20. It does look like there should be something at the top - perhaps a storage drawer as you suggest. It looks like a nice cabinet though - would it be worth taking it anyway and having something made to fill the gap? You could then customise it to suit.
