william Posted May 11, 2004 Posted May 11, 2004 Why start at 1797?because i do not like the silver pennies as much as copper/bronze...after/if i manage to get all of the availible pennies between 1797 - 1967 in EF - BU condition then i will probably start half pennies... That will take a long time to do! Quote
Master Jmd Posted May 11, 2004 Author Posted May 11, 2004 That will take a long time to do! yep, i have worked out that i am 11% through stage 1, 2% through stage 2, 4% through stage 3, and 0% through stage 4...these are the stages:Stage 1 = 1900 - 1967Stage 2 = Victoria Bronze (1860 - 1899)Stage 3 = Victoria Copper (1839 - 1860/59)Stage 4 = 1797 (George III) - 1837 (William IV) Quote

Master Jmd Posted May 11, 2004 Author Posted May 11, 2004 How long have you been working on them MJMD? as you may have read, i have been colecting for about 6 months now, and my penny collection started about 3 - 4 months ago... Quote

Master Jmd Posted May 11, 2004 Author Posted May 11, 2004 well, some of it was given to me, but the other ones are ones that i have bought... Quote
Emperor Oli Posted May 11, 2004 Posted May 11, 2004 yep, i have worked out that i am 11% through stage 1, 2% through stage 2, 4% through stage 3, and 0% through stage 4...these are the stages:Stage 1 = 1900 - 1967Stage 2 = Victoria Bronze (1860 - 1899)Stage 3 = Victoria Copper (1839 - 1860/59)Stage 4 = 1797 (George III) - 1837 (William IV)Oh how bloody novel Quote
william Posted May 11, 2004 Posted May 11, 2004 Oh how bloody novel I know, he's copied your idea of having numbered stages... <_< Quote
kuhli Posted May 11, 2004 Posted May 11, 2004 these are the stages:Stage 1 = 1900 - 1967Stage 2 = Victoria Bronze (1860 - 1899)Stage 3 = Victoria Copper (1839 - 1860/59)Stage 4 = 1797 (George III) - 1837 (William IV)Would it not make more sense to have Stage 1 start with 1902 (Edward issues), and put the 1900 & 1901 into Stage 2, as they are Victorian bronzes???just a thought. Quote
Sylvester Posted May 12, 2004 Posted May 12, 2004 Would it not make more sense to put the stages in chronological order?(it appears he's buying coins from each stage in no particular order) Quote
Master Jmd Posted May 12, 2004 Author Posted May 12, 2004 Oh how bloody novel it was a good idea of yours oli, and i think it is a good way to collect...Would it not make more sense to put the stages in chronological order?it would, yes, but i want to keep my 1900's coins seperate from my 1800's coins...(it appears he's buying coins from each stage in no particular order)if i see a good looking penny from say stage 3 that is on sale for a bargain price, i may want to buy it...i am mainly focusing on 'stage 1', but every little addition to my collection helps...
