I've given up with the MSM on this debate. It's not impartial, I'd even go so far as to suggest some of it's propaganda. Did anybody else notice the lack of airtime on the French protests by the BBC? I found myself watching it on RT which is sad that we have to look at a foreign country's news to keep up-to-date with current affairs. Or what about this UN global compact for migration that we've just signed. Nothing at all from the BBC on this informing us of what it is and what it entails for the UK. They seem to be following the Mushroom policy , keep us in the dark and feed us shit.

Mike, a lot of bidders see that type of thing while watching, and making last second bids on ebay. Research has shown it is caused by too much wine! LOL...

Lukas is claiming this to be a D* 2* ITS NOT it has a 143 teeth and is a D Freeman 2 not the D* 2* with 145 teeth I have informed him https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1860-Penny-Unrecorded-Gouby-Obverse-D-or-G-A-Of-Victoria-Points-To-Tooth-RARE/332960341847?hash=item4d85fb9f57:g:t0QAAOSwj-RcF8nw:rk:162:pf:0

The triple choice is how I've always seen it presented: 1. Accept May's deal, and leave the EU 2. Reject May's deal, and leave the EU with no deal 3. Reject May's deal, and Remain in the EU That's two options to leave and one to stay.

That's true. I've got a BU 1860 F13, and you can quite clearly see ghosting of the Queen's head on the reverse. But you never see a bun with any wear, which has the remotest sign of ghosting. Also, to be fair, you don't see it that often with UNC bun specimens.

different date- different rulers- and same denominations almost playing bingo of what is wrong with it

Because he didn't know your bid. Your bid would have beaten the previous £12, and show £13 as the current bid. So they sniped at £18.50, but this wasn't enough to beat your earlier bid, so you win at £18.50 + 1.

Ha, Ha - but actually not so on this occasion, Bob. No, something was definitely wrong with the clock. Bid history is below. Why would the other late bidder make a lower bid than mine with one second to go, when the confirm box shows the latest bids coming in? My bid was supposedly 25 seconds before the close, easily enough time for the other bidder to adjust their amount bid, or decide not to bid. Bid history on the item

Going to see them in May next year, but by far and away the Rolling Stones have been the best i've seen so far, Eagles next and then Pink in June

Nice, and a happy birthday old bean..........

Bought two 1902 Low Tide Pennies yesterday, at the Indiana State Coin Exposition. Both were in about the same condition (AU-UNC). They were not marked as LT's. Once in a while you get lucky!

We need a 'mouth open, shocked' reaction icon!

What goes round comes round. This one was brought to me today at the market as a gift from a chap I had helped assess his collection of modern silver crowns. (He couldn't work out which were silver and which were not.) Anyway, a pretty nice 1908 Penny - I believe 2+D, F166 so not scarce but nice as a freebie!

You mean the nearly 52% who actually voted for Brexit, which was 37% of the electorate. No doubt you will recall that the ballot simply asked "Do we stay" or "Do we leave"? Nothing about the single market. Nothing about the customs union (and most people had never heard of that on voting day). Nothing about the implications for Ireland. Nothing about the impact on all the "just in time" goods required by some industries. Nothing about the impact on medical supplies. Etc etc etc. I'm prepared to bet that many Leave voters didn't realise the implications of that decision.
