azda Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Spink is usually around December because it's always delayed the other 2 you can ask the Writer of the book direct as he owns this forum Quote
Chris Perkins Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 I'll update the Rotographic website soon. CCGB predecimal will start at 1760 from the 2015 edition onwards. I'm busy doing it now and hope to have it ready during November, or early December. "Collectors' Coins - Decimal Issues of the UK" will stay as it is into 2015, because apart from the new 2015 issues, there doesn't tend to be much to do annually concerning decimals. That book may end up being bi-annual in fact, depending on demand etc. 2 Quote

You could probably get away with publishing once every 5 years Chris, which would save you time for the important other books. Quote
Chris Perkins Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Yes, but the Romans have stopped releasing annual commemorative coins! And there are sometimes other developments that I feel I have to put people right on, e.g. the Kew gdns 50p hype and things like that. I'll admit though, that it mainly depends how many I get printed and when they sell-out. It'd be foolish to end up sitting on large amounts of a previous edition that has been made obsolete by the release of a newer one. Quote

Chris Perkins Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Thanks Peter, aka R Sleeker. I need to have a look at that old thread when I launched the 2014 edition, as there were some important pointers and opinions. And didn't you say you had an idea for me? Or was that someone else? Quote

Or was that someone else?It was me Chris and involved Mrs Peter getting you advertisers.Since then she has picked up a high pressure telesales and actually selling the end project and if I suggested my idea my family jewels would probably join my adams apple.Her back ground was with Land Rover monthly where she did very well.But if you want a funeral plan or to protect your estate on your death let me know.IdeaGive forum dealers adverts at reduced rates and then send out copies to everyone who advertises in Coin News and current advertisers in Spink etc. Quote
Chris Perkins Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 That's a shame, I could have done with an advertising sales person as I'm not very good at that.Colin's (aboutfarthings.co.uk) advert will be included in the farthing section, and I certainly have nothing against other dealers putting ads in. Anyone? Actually I'll start a new topic... Quote
scott Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 starting at 1760? needs to go back at least another 100 years problem with modern decimals is no one knows the mintage figures of the coins before getting hyped nowadays. Quote

scott Posted October 29, 2014 Posted October 29, 2014 will the 1862 B over R halfpenny be included? Quote
