  1. Again, I can't reproduce the blue toning and reflective fields.
  2. I Not by everyone! They're just a little penny, after all.
  3. You'll be explaining that next. Some very nice pennies. On the 1874 there is a lack of detail on the lower right quarter of the shield, along with some roughness behind Britannia and in front of Victoria's face. What's caused this please? I'm assuming not damage or corrosion as it's slabbed. Rusty dies?
  4. Having said that I took this with it so it must have the capability in the hands of a competent user.
  5. That's kind Paul, thank you, but will it help when I'm only working with this?
  6. If I only had half your photography skills Paul...
  7. To be fair I don't carry any more than that and they've been in there a while.
  8. Same for these 5ps do you think? I'll be honest, I don't see how this would be achieved in a tumble dryer.
  9. But surely there's more than the edge that's off - the obverse looks mushy and indistinct; the reverse little better.
  10. I think it's a twopence and a penny. Nice edges on the 2d and a reasonable price if within estimate I would say.
  11. I'd say it was real. Got some impact marks around the middle where someone's punched it out. Not terribly difficult by all accounts.
  12. Got mine in change circa 2009. 700 is a lot. Do you work in an amusement arcade?
  13. I think it's a steal and I'm jealous.
  14. Let's call it VF. VF with verdigris = VF with treated verdigris = VF with no verdigris = All VF but depends on the eye appeal.
  15. Looks a whole lot better.
  16. That's an unusual denomination Sergio.
  17. To me it looks like some sort of corrosion, perhaps once treated?
  18. I was so busy laughing at the obverse I missed that. How many elbows?
  19. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/George-III-Cartwheel-TwoPence-1797-with-COA-/192079659678?hash=item2cb8d7029e:g:Q~IAAOSw4DJYfGxF None of mine have a COA. Are they all fake?
  20. Too many fingerprints for me. I'll pass too.
