Here you are Mike. The difference in colour is due to light conditions. There's no difference 'in hand'. £175 delivered? A cast iron bargain.

Has anyone here seen one of these? We were at a friend's house the other day and, knowing I'm into coins, he showed me this blue purse containing at full set of four 1901 maundy coins. It belonged to an aunt but no one knows how she came to own it/them. I've not seen a purse like this before but do know the coins would have originally been distributed in little drawstring bags.

That's why I backup four times a day to Time Machine (automatic) create a clone of my complete system as often as I remember have automatic cloud backups for smaller things like WP SS DB files, which includes all my coin stuff, so whenever I make a change it's automatically backed up And if ever upgrade to an OS which doesn't support my database software, I can get a newer version from eBay .. and as 'belt and braces' I can always output the databases as Excel SS's so a multitude of programs will be able to open them. So you see, it would take a widespread disaster to permanently destroy my data [touching wood ].

On a more serious numismatic note: Could this Aethelstan penny be proof, that Humpty Dumpty did, in fact wear a syrup? Moneyer; unidentified (but the case is still open).

All of the above: The YOLK is on us....

I don't think he was all he was cracked up to be....

Looks like he survived shell shock for a short time (4 minutes to be precise)...
