    Is this another similar fault? I don't think it's post mint.

    Well I thought we'd peaked, but apparently not: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1965-One-Penny-Hand-Enamelled/352198403619?hash=item5200a92623:g:2j0AAOSwX9FZGFUP

    Well that's no issue. Send it back at their expense, not as described. Leave appropriate feedback.

    Good old ebay. £5.99 all in.
  5. mrbadexample
    I had been thinking that we should have an "ebay's best offerings" thread. It's not all bad.
  6. mrbadexample
    Just as well. You can't be my friend on Faceache unless you've been round my house for a cup of tea.
  7. mrbadexample
    Have you signed up then Pete? Do you want to be my friend?

    Then you should speak up. It's always going to happen: Q: "What's this worth?" <Hmmm, I'd like to buy that> A: "Scrap mate. Fiver tops." <Hmmm, I've no interest in that> A: "Twenty quid mate."

    Is it wrong to be slightly tempted? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Defaced-1905-Edward-VII-Penny-with-what-looks-like-an-Owl-on-Skis/132381311148?hash=item1ed28a80ac:g:1m8AAOSwy0JZ7dH4

    I wouldn't have an issue if it was described as a fantasy, but it isn't.

    I thought the same about this one. The dot, although very weak (and if it is even a dot), does seem to be in exactly the right place. If it's a result of die degradation, it probably starts small, right?
  12. mrbadexample
    I prefer the term "fantasy" for this sort of thing for exactly that reason.
  13. mrbadexample
    I did wonder if that might be the case. Strange how they worried about it getting into circulation - I don't think it would have been particularly easy to spend.
  14. mrbadexample
    Blimey - any idea what happened to it?
  15. mrbadexample
    It's ok. I have one of yours. It was made here though.
  16. mrbadexample
    Quite. Send them back home please Voynov!

    I think you should buy a lottery ticket. It looks like one to me.

    I've always found DNW pictures to be pretty good.

    Only the 1927 was proof, from the sets. There are currency issues of the others. I've got a 1929 in about VF.
  21. mrbadexample
    Nope. Nowt subtle about it at all.
  22. mrbadexample
    Now there's pretty. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GB-VICTORIA-COPPER-PENNY-1854-NICE-GRADE-861-22/401431860975?hash=item5d773416ef:g:Ke4AAOSw9fNZh1yE

    Sniping is possible but more difficult. Firstly, there's no accurate countdown. Secondly, if the current bid is at £20 and you snipe at £40 and win, you win at £40. On ebay you'd win at £20 + 1 bid increment.
  24. mrbadexample
    Err, yes, of course.
  25. mrbadexample
    Noted. I guess we'd see more examples if it was a different die. There is absolutely no trace of the stop, but more die fill is evident in the following pictures:
