    Proof?

    No. Proofs are special collectors pieces struck with dies that have been polished and have a mirror like finish to them. This is a proof coin. The picture isn't brilliant, but you can see that the fields are reflective. Proofs used to be trial strikes, for testing the dies but they aren't anymore.

    Far Eastern coin

    As far as i can see, the other side is blank. I can't see any trace of lettering anything else. All it has is four Chinese letters, and a hole!!

  12. Do you think we should start a Churchill Crown Fan Club on this forum, we could post all our nasty thoughts about them on there...lol
  13. It's a nice idea, but if it did happen, we wouldn't be around to see it (except Oli who'll have come back as a tree ). Also, we have enough problems on earth right now to be worrying about space

    Signatures

    I have changed it now cos it looked so bad, but it didn't change the font to bold and italic, it just put the B and the I in brackets round the font!!

    Lucky People

    Ouch!! When i was four i fell off a sofa, and broke my right arm. I had to wear a cast for eight weeks. Oh and last year i stubbed my toe on a plank of wood and that turned out to be broken! Wow, my luck really is rubbish Lol
