The Coinery

I did not want to overEIGHT the coins potential

No Lad - they were made in Germany in the POW camp. We Yorkshiremen still use them as others and Softy Tight Sutaners never get their hands in their pockets so we Yorkshiremen need extra deep ones. W still hand suthoners in Leeds City Square until dead and then dip them in gravy and eat them.

Nay Lad - Yorkshiremen always appear to have their hands in their pockets as they are looking for money to buy their M8's a pint . . .

You can ALWAYS trust a Yorkshireman

Don't be so Eagle eyed on my posts you old Hoot Owl. Swallow your tweetings and I will not OS-prey on your fowl comments

Really ? - I got bored after counting 50 about a quarter of the way round

I love Queen. Cant get enough. Been going Head Long over them since 1970

Thank you very much for the "Heads Up" Appreciated

Had to deal with a horrendous family situation. My son also uses this profile with me. Coin will go off in the morning.

Thank you very much Azda - Appreciated

No. I have a grade 85 Proof and it is the same exact value as the 85 Currency

If I do bigger ones it shows the UIN and grade. I am on a MAC and I don't know how to edit pics

Who can grade, either in standard letter grade or CGS grade the 3 attached photos There will be a prize for the numismatist with the 3 grades accurately graded !!! An before you ask Pete - NO I won't PM you the answers :-)

I am starting to feel VICTIMISED by the "OLD GUYS" on here . . .

Hi Mike - SOLD !!!! Thank You Will post off today. When it arrives would you mind making mention here that it arrived safe and that you are happy

have you actually counted them Matt ???

One cannot refer to Ones Majesty as a Bird - I think "Cabbage" is the current slur / nickname - I agree you did find a Bird - Our Queen has a cracking coin collection - I wonder if she is on this site as a member ?

I think I have what the Chinese would agree is the Luckiest Coin EVER. The CGS grade for this coin is: 88 The UIN for this coin is: 8888 The year is 1953 . . . . And in this there is even more luck: 9 -1 = 8 . . . .5+3 = 8 So 88 + 8888 + 8 + 8 = A very lucky year. I looked hard for a Rooster but only found Lions, a Harp and The Queen. I tried to make a "Fowl" or "Bird" related word from the Reverse and Obverse inscriptions but none with mentioning. Have you ever seen a luckier coin ?

Penny: 1875 Grade: A/UNC Dies: 8+H (1875.02) UIN: 17882 Freeman: 80 £ 145 - Free Delivery Will remove from slab if requested References from other Pre-decimal members upon request.

Penny 1875 I have only ever had two of these pennies and I have recently upgraded from this one. CGS have only ever had 3 submitted for grading. There is one at Grade 10 which is not even on the MS scale. There is this one I have for sale at Grade 70 and my current one at Grade 78. I can't comment about other slabbing companies or other raw examples out there but I personally think it is a hard coin to find.
