They were digital photos of that one. -

Thanks for pointing out the error, I've changed it now. I think that's already a great price, but £90 to you JMD. -
Yes that's the one, it's Westair
-
Oh dear, yes that's a modern repro without a doubt.

Now there's a turn up
Chris Perkins replied to Chris Perkins's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
The President told me that Peck left some out that were too worn, even if he was sure they were what he thought they were! Regardless of what was in, and what was out, there is no doublt that some little mistakes were made. Who's doing the next one? -
Now there's a turn up
Chris Perkins replied to Chris Perkins's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Spink is not about varieties really JMD. Spink does an excellent job of covering over 2000 years of coinage. My book already contains far more varieties for the modern coins! Just imagine, a properly comprehensive book on the British coins of the last 200+ years with up to date values. Nothing like it exists. For those of you that don't follow things in here, here's a plug: http://www.predecimal.com/books/ccgb2005framed.htm -
Make sure you show me Livia's bum when I'm round in Feb Millimoo!
-
Yes it does doesn't it! That's even funnier than my Offa joke.
-
Yes, hopefully it's settled down. The host people (and I know them personally by now!) said that someone else with another website on the same server had probably installed some dodgy code, and it bought the whole lot down!

Nice Penny

That's more difficult. How do you pronounce Stycca? -
My first 2004 £1

I wish I'd kept my mouth shut now. You see, none of them are in any particular order! Let me deal with your Nazi coins first! -
My first 2004 £1
Chris Perkins replied to Emperor Oli's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Yes I have, but I'm not really passionate about them. I just have them from collecting as a kid, and the decimals from collections I've bought in the past. I don't offer them for sale because the time it would take to scan and list them all would be huge, and none of them are particularly valuable. Something for the future, and certainly something to offer if the UK should ever go EURO (which at the moment looks very unlikely) -
Nice Penny
Chris Perkins replied to Millimoo's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
So you won't be making an Offa? (Sorry, couldn't resist it, such a silly little joke, but I must admit when it came to me I was quite tickled) -
Yes, I just got the same message for the first time. The SQL database that all this lot is stored on is called britishcoins, and if the front end is not able to find it, it would probably indicate that my hosts are having problems and are not able to serve the database. Hopefully they will be temporary.

Thanks for your message Miljan, Please DO NOT add your message to all the other bloody posts in the forum, I've just deleted 7 of them! In here will do, and I've also emailed you.

What are you playing at Miljan? Does this look like a Roman coin related topic? I received all 3 of your messages sent via the website, and have replied to the first one. -
I found an old coin - please help
Chris Perkins replied to a topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I don't mean to be picky, but at that time, and right up to the 1920's, Walthamstow was part of Essex. My Grandad was born there in 1900. Spot on with the Brutus partof course! -
I was asked by the Beeb if I could let them have images of an 1890 Farthing and Penny. I had a wonderful farthing of my own, and borrowed a Penny picture from Colin Cooke (with permission!). The stills will be used on Blue Peter, and I've asked for a Blue Peter badge in return! I'll let you know exactly where and when they will be used.

Right, I need a favour!
Chris Perkins replied to Chris Perkins's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Grear news! Can I ask which branch it was in? Email me the book shop man details when you can. The book chain Ottakars should also be stocking it as standard in their 130 branches very soon. The pestering people, and buying your own books seems to pay off! -
I think I basically understood what you were writing, despite the fact that it was composed liek a text message! It's a Diamond Jubilee medal, not really a coin. It shows the Queen as she was when she became Queen, and the Queen as she looked in 1897. If it's pretty average it'll just be worth a pounf or two. I think we've talked about these before in the forum, as they are a popular query.

Celebrity Coins!

Unfortunately they don't do Blau Peter in Gemany! In fact, the only English speaking channel (half English) was turned off on December 31st! Now I have to get a Satalite dish to pick up anything English. -

Chris Perkins replied to Chris Perkins's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
They don't give those badges away willy nilly you know! Not that I'd be able to use one, as you have to be under 16 for free entry into place, and accompanied by a paying adult. -

The jazzy gold ones are apparently for massive things, like life saving and the like. -
Nothing....Unless it was once part of a colony. My geography isn't fab, but I don't suppose Somalia is the richest country in the world, and I expect they love the fact that Coincraft must of paid them something for the 'rights'. The only winner in this particular tragedy for numismatics is Somalia, and good luck to them!
