The real Royal Mint mistake here is to assume the population has any common sense whatsoever! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Royal-Mint-Mistake-New-1-Penny/132934242203?hash=item1ef37f8f9b:g:cFsAAOSwXh9cUHo- Jerry

Well, the seller never replied to my message, but he has the grace to withdraw the item concerned My message read as follows:-

😐 smaller coins are tougher to picture for this seller, one picture could be their own and the other picture from the previous seller 😋

Sorry, meant Spelman. Got tied up in rant mode.

Cooper didn't pass - that would have got Parliament to reject No Deal (i.e. legally binding). What passed was the non-binding Spelman/Dromy equivalent, which May will probably ignore with her usual obstinacy. Brady passed, which has already been rejected by the EU - which we knew in advance. All tonight's votes - with one exception - were party political, i.e. party before nation. As for Britain acting independently, name me one law we've not been able to pass because of the EU? Name one aspect of YOUR life that's been negatively affected by the EU? As for 'no say', we'd have plenty of say if we remained, as we have had for 40+ years. As for them 'cherry picking access to our markets', that's what British business wants! It's a win- win.

This tiny high carat gold coin has me stumped. I'm hoping someone has seen one before. It's 7.5mm in diameter, 0.96mm thick and weighs 0.37g. If it's just scrap gold the so be it but it looks hammered and quite old. The "O" could represent "5" in English and there are 12 pellets, possibly representing stars within the horns of the crescent on the other side. I'm not sure that is a date below the olive branch (?). I can find nothing remotely like it online. Please help before I drop it and it disappears forever. Apologies for the quality of the pictures. Had to take it with a microscope attachment on my mobile phone. Cheers Kris

It looks like an Indian gold fanam of some sort. Not something i am familiar with myself so can't provide a full ID. Stu.

I'm not sure what he was thinking about there, but I think hell would freeze over before that happened.

I’ve had some nice presents from him in the past. Well not absolute presents, but very fair prices. Thank you Santa! Jerry

The situation gets more insane by the day. Parliament will be voting on a possible move not to exit with no deal. But at the same time they won't accept the only deal on offer, which the EU have again re-iterated is not up for further debate. Seems to me there are many MP's who just cannot get their head round the hard fact that the EU is a brick wall which will not budge.
