British Countermarks on Copper & Bronze Coins J, Gavin Scott
Zo Arms replied to dmw2602's topic in Rotographic Publications Forum
There's a countermarked coins group on face book, if no joy here. If that helps I'm not intelligent enough to do links and all that nonsense. Photos.......,? -

A couple I've had for a long time. May be of interest? Farthing for scale.

Halfpenny ID check
Zo Arms replied to mrbadexample's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Must admit, I've not looked for an E/L combo, so had a look thru mine. Not found one but there is a bit of fudgery going on here. -

To my eyes, photo 4 says an F......... Used the camera from 2 different phones....... -

Thanks for bringing it over. Great to have them all in the same place. I think that the die crack over the F of F D confirms the same obverse die as Martin's. -
Thank you for continuing the story............ Other than this thread, what brings you back? Great to see you again. Pull up a chair and share what else you have detected. Always interested to learn.......

See. I do listen. 😂

Known as Die Fill. It's where the hollow in the die, in this case the T, starts to fill with grease, so preventing the metal flowing into that area, when struck. A common occurrence.

That's what my ex wife used to say. Told me, if I behaved myself, we could have another female instead, one day........

I'll agree with Paddy. Let's have a gander at a few of your medals. And some Tower shillings please. Every day is a school day and I'm willing to learn. And if it awakens some latent desire amongst the masses, all the better.

I'm still here. Check in at least once a day. Mike once asked me why I didn't contribute more. Told him I didn't have much of interest to say. 😐

My Halfpenny varieties site
Zo Arms replied to secret santa's topic in Confirmed unlisted Varieties.
Concentrate on making the penny site bullet proof. -
If he's happy to pay full spot price for the scrap ones, I'd snap his hand off. Still 83p. Just looked. I don't think even the silver traders can sell at spot price. No margin for mark up or allowances for the price to fall.

Florins, Shillings and Misc .... on going sort out.
Zo Arms replied to Citizen H's topic in Free for all
Take the ' r ' looking letter to be a 'c'. One Hundred. C for century. -
I've amassed, over the years, around 300-400 of these commemorative crowns. All types. Silver jubilee, Churchill, etc. Weighed in a load of cu-ni coins a while back. Not overly impressed with the scrap price. Short of doing the same with these, just wonder what everyone else does with them please?

Commemorative crowns.
Zo Arms replied to Zo Arms's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Quick update. Weighed in at EMR as 80/20 Cupro Nickel solids. £4.20 per kilo. 20kg. £84. Quick and simple. Heavy copper, currently £6.08 per kilo, for the bronze. And rolled Ali £1.10, for those interested. Blake. -
I delete all the cookies on my phone, regularly. Seems to sign me out of everything. Even here. Have to sign back in, to catch up.

That's useful Paddy. I've some various Victoria that I have no interest in. Like Blake says, they have little value individually, if you trust eBay but a rarity spotted amongst a bulk lot, at auction, may make them more viable. Bit like coins really.

Commemorative crowns.
Zo Arms replied to Zo Arms's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Banks do take the old £1 and £2 coins, paid direct into your account. Google seems to think banks won't accept commemoratives. The Post Office will accept for goods and services apparently but I doubt I'd get shot of more than 4 at a time. And it's not something that I'd like to make a career of. Can't remember the last time I bought a stamp.😐. -
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL.
Zo Arms replied to terrysoldpennies's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Poetically put. Exactly what I wanted to say but I struggled with the correct wording. Hence the short post. Christmas Day off and back to work Boxing Day. Suits me fine. I echo Paddy's sentiments. -
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL.
Zo Arms replied to terrysoldpennies's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Yes. Best Seasonal wishes to all. -
Yes. The beaded border only appears on obverse 1 and reverse A. Toothed from then on. Yours has a tie knot at the top of the ribbon bows. That little pellet looking thing just before the hair starts, so obverse 1. If this were absent, that would be obverse 1* (freeman) or 1A using Dracotts system. Again, beaded.
