    penny 1874h F76

    If anyone has a spare one, I'd love one. I've virtually given up finding one by the usual routes. Anything considered- still needing the last of the main 1874 types after all these years is driving me mad. I have some spare 1874H F69's if some one wants one..

    Many animals were harmed writing this stuff. Your home is at risk if you leave the doors and windows open. Lifts can go down as well as up. I'm Blakeyboy and I approve this message.

    More Pennies

    Yes, it's gone mad. Still, I keep looking. A friend showed me a Celtic gold stater he had found, with the horse on it, probably the most beautiful object I'll ever touch.....

    Gaz, what sort of sites do you detect on? I go out sometimes and find bugger all, with a good detector... Is a lot of it down to research before search?

    Any ideas on this one?

    I've just been sent these pics from a friend, who found this coin in her late Mother's estate, so I doubt very much if it's a modern fake. (I've asked for measurements.)

  19. I too have a few on my wife's ebay account at the moment. We are now trying a reasonable start price, and reducing over the weeks till someone goes 'fair enough'. Sometimes that then generates two or three bids. Wading through so many lots is a pain- I didn't see the F76 from Portugal because '1874' wasn't in any description. Whoever found that was either very lucky, or had hours to spare. Not so good for the seller....went very cheaply....
