Master Jmd Posted November 3, 2004 Posted November 3, 2004 I am curious, when will the 'New Titles Coming Soon' part on the rotographic site work...i am curious to what you have to say about the new titles due out in 2005... Quote
Chris Perkins Posted November 3, 2004 Posted November 3, 2004 That isn't actually supposed to work, but these are the new titles coming soon:British and Empire campaign medals of the 20th CenturyCollectors Roman Coins part 2 (silver)New Version of Roman Coins Part 1 (I'm more than half way through)A so far un titled colaboration between Syl and myself on early milledAnd who knows what else, there are so many ideas that have been put to me.

Sylvester Posted November 3, 2004 Posted November 3, 2004 A so far un titled colaboration between Syl and myself on early milled I'm about a third of the way through, almost. Crowns-Shillings are fully listed without prices (i never want to see 1787 shillings again).Sixpences are half done at present.Also some intro & some appendices.I'm thinking about the layout of the listings a bit more now that i can see it coming along.I need volunteers to look up the prices of certain denominations; (Approx dates from memory)Crowns-------------------------1662-1751Halfcrowns---------------------1663-1751Shillings------------------------1663-1798Sixpences----------------------1674-1787Fourpences--------------------1670-1804?Threepences------------------1670-1804?Twopences (Ag only)--------1670-1804?Pennies (Ag only)-------------1670-1804?Halfpennies (Cu & Sn)--------1673-1775Farthings (Cu & Sn)-----------1673-1775The Maundy stuff should really finish at the 1786 issue but there's only another 4 dates or so issued after that since coins at this time were struck very irregulary. I might as well add them all for completeness.Any takers on denomination price research, starting now? Quote

I think the gold coins book is the next logical step.I'm busy at present, but i'd gladly write the Early milled half of the book.Infact i could probably just write a complete book on early milled gold.Can i ignore the counterstamped Spanish coins Chris? And focus on just 'Regal' issues in the EM book? Quote
Chris Perkins Posted November 3, 2004 Posted November 3, 2004 Can i ignore the counterstamped Spanish coins Chris? And focus on just 'Regal' issues in the EM book? Yes, if you like. They should of course have a mention, but without detail if that what you want to do. Quote

I'll mention it somewhere then, but not cover it.P.S I posted the package today, it'll be with you tomorrow afternoon sometime. Quote
Master Jmd Posted November 4, 2004 Author Posted November 4, 2004 (Approx dates from memory)Halfpennies (Cu & Sn)--------1673-1775Farthings (Cu & Sn)-----------1673-1775 they start at 1672 not 1673...I will gladly do the prices for farthings and Halfpennies (Halfpennies unless HPJ wants to)...when does it have to be 'given in'?

I'll wait for Jon on the halfpennies.You can by all means do the farthings.I'd like the prices by about March ideally. Quote
Master Jmd Posted November 4, 2004 Author Posted November 4, 2004 (edited) I'd like the prices by about March ideally.No problem...i quickly did the prices for Charles II farthings upto VF just a while ago... ...are we going to also include a 'coins not intended for circulation' section at the back (like the CCGB2005 book)?...i take it that peck numbers are involved also?

Yes Peck numbers will be involved.I haven't actually drawn up the draft of the copper stuff yet, i've been working my way down from the crowns... believe it or not the shillings were the worst, so many of them.The catalogue, i'm thinking, will be divided into three sections.I) Regular issue circulation piecesII) Proofs (regular proofs and irregular special proofs)III) Errors/oddities.So the coins not intended for circulation (i.e proofs) will be in the middle section.Patterns, counterstamped Spanish stuff and gold coins are excluded at present.Subsequent editions where possible (if they happen, depending on the popularity of this), may expand to cover one or more, but i know very little about the first two areas so it's not a step i'm going to take without caution.I'm currently still working on the sixpence bit, got Anne-Geo. III to do (i manage to get W3 done last night).I may skip to the halfpennies and farthings then so i can supply you with a template to fill in.Meaning Maundy stuff would be done last. Quote
Master Jmd Posted November 4, 2004 Author Posted November 4, 2004 (edited) um...another question...at what year/monarch will UNC varieties start to come into this?...i take it that for the early stuff (1672-1700) will only go to EF......also...do i have to include all minor varieties...i.e. 1691 farthing is Bmc 581-583, do i just use 581?

Probably just the major varieties.I'll list them out of Coincraft (what's in there is the minimum), if anyone knows of any others that are missing from the listings when Chris has got them into PDF format, we can add them then.Conversely i have the price listing pages myself and i can email you a copy of your relevant areas and just let you fill in the prices.(Cromwell has not been put on yet)The Crowns-Sixpences are now fully listed.It might take you a while to figure out my listings style but hopefully when it's in the acrobat format it'll be clearer.I may do the farthings lists next for you JMD. Note; i don't have any Peck numbers myself so Chris will probably shove those in, or you can yourself.The regular issues/proofs/errors are all mixed in together at the present but they'll be separated out once i've done the listings. That will be a nightmare in itself. Quote

Note; i don't have any Peck numbers myself so Chris will probably shove those in, or you can yourself. I have a few peck numbers, but yes, i think that chris will have to help out on that...Is this on Microsoft Word format? ...will you want the 1656 oliver cromwell farthing in this, or would that class as hammered?

Sylvester Posted November 4, 2004 Posted November 4, 2004 Wordpad (cos my word doesn't work), but it should be fine to open up in either. Microsoft word might leave a few things out of line.Cromwell is definately milled but strangely absent from the Coincraft list.I'm not adding Cromwell onto my lists until the end.So you can probably add it on yourself.I'll start the farthing lists now for you. Quote
Sylvester Posted November 4, 2004 Posted November 4, 2004 Farthing list is done and ready for you...Please PM me with you email addy and i'll post you a copy to fill in at your leisure.Please stick Cromwell's on the beginning. Quote
Master Jmd Posted November 4, 2004 Author Posted November 4, 2004 Ive PMed you ...also, well done on getting past 2000 posts Quote
Master Jmd Posted November 5, 2004 Author Posted November 5, 2004 (edited) Ok, got it Edit...i take it that i can add more coins to the list if needed to? Edited November 5, 2004 by Master Jmd Quote
Sylvester Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 Ok, got it Edit...i take it that i can add more coins to the list if needed to? Yes, feel free, the more the better. Quote
Master Jmd Posted November 13, 2004 Author Posted November 13, 2004 Hmm...am i still doing prices for Halfpennies? If so, is the list ready? Quote
Sylvester Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 Hmm...am i still doing prices for Halfpennies? If so, is the list ready? Yes and i've just finished the halfpenny list now, i'll email it to you. Quote
