Best Decimal Coins to collect - thanks, Chris
Unwilling Numismatist replied to HeavyT's topic in Decimal Coins
we're well into 2018, surely they had these figures by 31st Dec 2017. -
I'd send it to the Royal Mint and ask them to verify it, if they do, you'll get a letter back which will confirm it, and this will give you and the buyer confidence that it's the real deal. This will also help it achive the best possible price, be it on ebay or through a major coin auction.

Issued = coins released for circulation minted is what is says on the tin, different aspects of a production run - the only way I can see that what the RM says would fit what we know already. -

Green Pennies, half pennies Victoria
Unwilling Numismatist replied to DrLarry's topic in Free for all
No idea. I can't see that post in this thread. I haven't forgotten you either - I have tracked down 3 green pennies so far, but I know there are more and would rather visit the post office just once -

So I guess coin collecting must be subconsciously theraputic to the IT crowd -

No edge inscription is normally indicative of a cheap copy as found here and therefore it's worth nothing at all -

I'll have a look through all my crap boxes Larry, I know I should have quite a few lying about the place. -

Kews seem to have been dropping with the introduction of prooflike fakes too. I think this years budget is becoming more flexible every week -

Thanks Stu, that was indeed a good read! -
Limerick Farthing - James II ?
Unwilling Numismatist posted a topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I welcome some input please I found this while out walking with a spade and detector, and its actually not in terrible nick given what it appears to be. I'd be most grateful of some confirmation though, as I'm normally wrong with anything before 1722. As per the title, I think it's a James II Limerick farthing. -

Virgin do this all the time, but yes - a 12 month contract is what it says. Virgin are trying to scrap a lot of their older contracts - many are only 2g or 3g so the coverage isn't great on them. By switching you should be able to get a 4g sim and better coverage but do remember to add a calendar event so you get reminded when it's up, as they'll knock off any loyaly discount and it'd probably jump to about £10 or 11 / month - something worth checking before you commit to it! -

I have so much trouble spelling anyway that I probably wouldn't have noticed either way lol -

Unwilling Numismatist replied to Unwilling Numismatist's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Thanks @Paddy, as for the date, it's a bit too destroyed to read but all I've seen would suggest that it can only be 1691 for this coin. It was found in the trackmarks of a rather large excavator, so I think it's fared quite well! As for £50, if someone wants to pay that or more, I'll happily let them (Other forms of payment are also accepted lol) -

So the RM can package up the best ones and flog them for $$$ as "historic"? -

This is the thing, I doubt there will have been many shields given that so many others have been minted, and along side the 2017's there were huge numbers of comems in 2016 too, so it could be that finding an escaped one might just be lucky!
