    There's loads of them out there, because for in house printouts it is the cheapest way of producing them. No need for glossy paper, you can use fairly dusty recycled paper without hassle. Newsagents mostly print off the paper-round sheets on one for example - certainly their software is designed for them and I don't know any who use more sophisticated devices. It's cheap and cheerful when you need a simple list. I've had ink jets, lasers etc since the 90s myself and continue to have one for other printouts, but see no point in changing the accounts computer printer until I run out of 3 part tractor feed invoices. End of year reports are only for me, as are stock lists and valuations etc so it could be printed on bog paper for all I care. Incapable of being b******d by your truly, it's a Star NL-10 which has to be the most robust printer ever made. It was the one I got with the first computer in the 1980s and is almost completely maintenance free as I've only had to clean it out once when it jammed up with paper dust. Not bad for 28 years old.

    I don't know, but it certainly looks Anglo-Saxby... Is it just me or does anyone else think that unresearched on eBay usually means you wouldn't like the answer, or reality would draw you to a cheaper conclusion? This guy has yet again done his best to mislead. He has dated it to 700-800AD, i.e. dating it as a sceat to get around the problem of the missing legend. Given his feedback, he has seen enough to give an accurate description 99 times or more out of a 100, but needless to say has a remarkable ability to choose an expensive and inaccurate description wherever possible when the alternative would be to take a fair (low) price for the coin in question. He's a disgrace.
