  1. Greetings. Post a few pictures of the unidentified ones and you'll probably get some answers.
  2. Delusional is the first word that springs to mind.
  3. Doesn't appeal to me. I don't even consider it to be a sixpence - it's just a made up round shiny thing designed to relieve you of your dough.
  4. No mate, no. It's low tide, innit? Says so on the listing.
  5. I wouldn't mind so much if they were, in any way, nice.
  6. Get yerself a bit of quality: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VERY-RARE-LOW-TIDE-HALF-PENNY-OF-1902-EDWARD-II-/253212495962?hash=item3af4a4105a:g:b7kAAOSwDmBY4ktS
  7. Hard to have much sympathy, isn't it?
  8. Call yourself a collector, eh? Someone's going to be upset with that one.
  9. Looks normal to me. A nice one though.
  10. Ahh, of course. Silly me.
  11. Yes, true enough I guess. Incidentally, do we know anything about the metal composition of the Chinese fake wreath crowns, for example? Are they using silver?
  12. It's not entirely conclusive, of course: it shows there is some silver, but not how much.
  13. 'tis only a guess Rob but hopefully it's nothing more sinister than that.
  14. They don't sell though. Looking at the sold listings most "error" £1s go for a couple of quid + postage. This one made me laugh though. You can hardly see the join.
  15. This is a complete guess: A Facebook user posts a picture of a coin. Q: "That's nice, where did you get it?" A: "RP Coins" https://www.rpcoins.co.uk/pages/coins This would generate a little preview of your website with the link. If someone clicked the link, could that be a Facebook referral?
  16. Thanks Rob.
  17. Morning all. Please bear with me because I've no business being on the hammered section of the forum. I've seen this Charles I shilling on a Faceache group. I believe the legend should read "CHRISTO" but the I is missing. Can someone tell me more about this coin please? Thanks, Jon
  18. Sweden again - 4 daler 1734, PM#74. 3122g.
  19. I'd like to know too. I suspect something more advanced than Paint is required.
  20. http://londoncoins.co.uk/?page=Preview
  21. Regardless of the Krause valuations being a bit hit and miss, this seems a pretty obvious thing to get wrong, and a little embarrassing to be shown off as an auction highlight.
  22. It is difficult to tell from the LCA photos, I agree. The bit that makes me think twice is the pointing of the downstroke of the 3. Seems to be aiming a bit low compared to Richard's.
