Chris Perkins Posted June 27, 2004 Posted June 27, 2004 thanx, but i can look after myself just fine, i need to get to know guy very well before i trust them. its something to do with my past, i know not all guys are like that, but how can you tell until its to late, sam xox Well yes of course, and I already have a girlfriend but I would be happy to help you in anyway with your coins. You'll find me very trustworthy in every respect, as do the 250,000 people that listen to my monthly BBC 3 Counties broadcast on the subject. (Not many people can use that as a chat up line )But seriously, it's good to see a pretty face among all these mostly blokes. Email me cp@predecimal.com for a no obligation expert consultation! Quote
samantha pia Posted June 27, 2004 Author Posted June 27, 2004 i have to go, but i will be back in an hour or so,take care, and thanx all for being so nice to me, and helpful too sam xoxox Quote
Sylvester Posted June 27, 2004 Posted June 27, 2004 i just have to get rid of them for a friend, he got them from a friend that died, and its what was left of the stuff no-one wants, sam xox I'll not lie, they are pretty common coins but there is a market for them... it's because they are common that the grade is ultimately important [not that it's not important anyhow] it's just more so with modern coins cos there's just so many of them, only the best will sell.And they are alot better than some of the stuff people have tried to ask us about before... e.g "how much is this battered 1969 old size 50p worth?" [well erm about 10p in that condition, but vending machines sometimes take them as £2 coins... and they do! ] Quote

The subtelty is astounding Chris... (i've probably spelt that wrong and Oli will perpetually show me up for an idiot) Quote
Emperor Oli Posted June 27, 2004 Posted June 27, 2004 Subtlety, but I'm making three pop-up models for my Graphics project so I'm not that bothered at the minute! Quote
Chris Perkins Posted June 27, 2004 Posted June 27, 2004 show me up for an idiot I'm sure he'd manage that without much trouble.(Sorry mate... Now look what happens when a pretty face shows up. Straight away friends can become competitors, and slightly nasty posts are exchanged. Sam, at this stage I think it's probably best if you email me to save us offending each other ) Quote

Sam, at this stage I think it's probably best if you email me to save us offending each other ) well was thinking of putting an offer in for the 1968/71 specimen set since i've lost the one i had, but i'd need to know what the coins in that look like.Are the 1/2p, 1p and 2p coins still bright and shiny as they were when new, or have they gone dull like the regular 1971 pennys etc that we see in our change?

samantha pia Posted June 27, 2004 Author Posted June 27, 2004 http://asksam2.tripod.com/decimal.jpgshinny but about a mil on the edge of some is going a little dullsam xox see pic, the scanner reflects the shine, so its not very good Quote
samantha pia Posted June 27, 2004 Author Posted June 27, 2004 how old are you guys? i am 21, 22 this year, no need to fight over me. lolsam xox Quote
Sylvester Posted June 27, 2004 Posted June 27, 2004 yeah some dullness is unavoidable, but 1 mill or so is nothing to worry about, as i say pretty unavoidable due to the way they are stored (in a cardboard holder).PM me with your addy and i'll get £2 off to you probably tomorrow.At least then you've got rid of one of them and i've got a replacement for the one i lost... Honestly i put anything down for a minute and it's never seen again Quote
Sylvester Posted June 27, 2004 Posted June 27, 2004 how old are you guys? i am 21, 22 this year, no need to fight over me. lolsam xoxi'm not far off 20, 19 at this present moment in time. Quote
