    Thanks Peter. It seems odd, to me, that they would choose the lowest denomination. I suppose it's relative to the buying power at the time, and how common the coin was in circulation?

    How do you zoom in?

    C'mon Garrett, help us rookies out a bit? What makes it suspicious? I can't see anything about it I'm not happy with, although to be fair I've never had one of these in hand. I should be so lucky.

    Apology accepted. Seriously though, if it wasn't China it would be somewhere else, and I don't think we can hold you responsible. I think your crown looks genuine, although I'm no expert at all. I hope so anyway, it's a lovely coin.

    Do counterfeit farthings exist Colin? Seems a very strange denomination to forge - more trouble than it's worth, surely?
  6. mrbadexample
    I suppose you've already got one?
  7. mrbadexample
    There might be if you lot leave anything...

    Welcome DrP. There are threads on pennies, and a sales board so you could take your pick.

    I must have just got in in time - only joined recently. I wouldn't pay for it either.

    Should cover the cost of the topsoil. Nice find.

    I don't normally take much notice unless they are written in (correct) English. They seldom are.
  12. mrbadexample
    Excellent, thanks for posting that.

    Cameras can be borrowed.

    Hmmm...best use a spare then.

    I also have a set. Not much to write home about because it was mostly collected when I first started - they were cheap and easy to obtain and I wasn't as concerned about grade then. I've upgraded a few recently though.

    Sorry. I couldn't find one on Colin's site, but think he'll be your man on this one. Although it is in your book....

    I read Three Men in a Boat a month or two ago. They made it seem like hard work. How long ago did you lose the sovereigns? Is there a dredging opportunity for those who don't have any? And did you tell the wife what you'd done?

    Sorry, I did get it identified in the end. It's a Philip II of Naples tornese, 1599. Now residing with the person who identified it for me - bit out of my collecting sphere, that one.

    Sorry George, missed this post. I'm informed it's a cornucopia.

    Yorkshire. Tick. Coins. Tick. Backgammon. Tick Boats. Hmmm. Red wine. Tick. Coins. Tick. Coins. Tick. Not sure about the boats but you'll do for me. Welcome.

    Well I know which one I prefer Paul.
  23. mrbadexample
    That's very kind of you and I appreciate the offer but it's miles away and darts night.
  24. mrbadexample
    Err...um...what's the TNS and can I come too?
  25. mrbadexample
    Sadly, won't be able to make this month's Midland as visiting friends, damn them.
