    I always thought them more as Surfing music on speed. I stood no more than a few feet from the amps at an Eric's show in May 1977. Small club. Low ceiling. Peter's quite correct. LOUD!

    We lived in Cambridge in the early 1990s. I went to a few coin fairs at the Corn Exchange. Bootleg CD fairs too, I think.

    I think my Canon macro lens was about £600 but worth its weight in gold.

    Verdigris can appear on silver due to the copper content used in its manufacture. The lower the silver content the higher the copper content.

    What matters is not so much the DSLR but the lens, the lighting and the editing (e.g. Photoshop). A top quality macro lens like the Nikon 105mm with decent lighting will produce outstanding results. Unfortunately, that lens costs $900. It is, however, on my list to purchase at some point in the future.

    They aren't common, but it would be difficult to justify spending £40 for something that is no better than fair on the obverse. I've only had three in the last 12 years including one in quite reasonable grade last year, but it had been cleaned and was never going to win a beauty contest. It took quite a while to shift this, despite its rarity and the fact it was priced well under book to take the faults into account. Being a single year type for the reign will help demand, but you rarely see them in a desirable condition which is the key to getting a good price and widening the circle of people looking for one. There is some demand there, but suspect it has to either be dirt cheap, or in top grade.

    That'll be $56 for the coin and $300 for the label, then.

    If you take a look at the SCBI and EMC you can filter by mint as well as monarch and view a comprehensive list of coins for that mint. It's excellent up to and including the Norman period, a bit sketchy for Plantagenet issues. Martin Allen is very approachable and always keen to hear about new discoveries and will also assist with questions.
