  1. I know this is a long shot, but I'm looking for a copy of Sealby’s Coin and Medal Bulletin, June 1964. I would also like The Numismatic Circular, April 1950. If anyone has these, or knows where I might get them, please let me know. Ta very much. MBE
  2. Do keep that first one though WC. It may not have much numismatic value, but it will be well worth what you paid as a little reminder of what not to buy. You'll look back at it one day and think: "Blimey, did I really buy that?" Anyone who says they haven't done the same is a big fibber.
  3. Bit small those Pete, I can't see the detail.
  4. He doesn't. VS you might find what you're looking for if you post the question here.
  5. Again, I can't reproduce the blue toning and reflective fields.
  6. I Not by everyone! They're just a little penny, after all.
  7. 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?
  8. Having said that I took this with it so it must have the capability in the hands of a competent user.
  9. That's kind Paul, thank you, but will it help when I'm only working with this?
  10. If I only had half your photography skills Paul...
  11. To be fair I don't carry any more than that and they've been in there a while.
  12. Same for these 5ps do you think? I'll be honest, I don't see how this would be achieved in a tumble dryer.
  13. But surely there's more than the edge that's off - the obverse looks mushy and indistinct; the reverse little better.
  14. I've asked them for one at the last two Midlands. They're in short supply apparently. Chris said he'd posted me the last one but it didn't arrive.
  15. Hi all, I've been trying to locate an auction catalogue from the December DNW sale. They've supposedly posted me one but it's not turned up. Anyone have a spare knocking about that they'd be prepared to part with please? Cheers, Jon
  16. I think it's a twopence and a penny. Nice edges on the 2d and a reasonable price if within estimate I would say.
  17. 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.
  18. Got mine in change circa 2009. 700 is a lot. Do you work in an amusement arcade?
  19. I think it's a steal and I'm jealous.
