    Going to Euro...

    What I was trying to say is that we have one of the most prefered currencies in the world which dates back centuries in terms of pounds and pence.

    Just to start things off

    That's right down my street. I once had the pleasure of owning an UNC 1860 half penny with lustre, it is a really nice coin. Where did you get the photo from? Is the coin for sale?

    1897 High and Low tide.

    I once bought a BU 1897 penny for £18 at my local coin shop. Mind you it was about 5 years ago!
  10. Hi everyone, Could anyone please tell me how to tell the difference between high and low tides in 1897 penny's. I saw this one below which Spink says is the rare 'high tide' one but I am not so sure. My Webpage

    Top 10 favourite coins in your collection...

    I love your half penny, and it is ex. Dr. Nicholson! Well done.
  16. Sorry, I double posted
  17. I can understand your reasons for having your coins "slabbed and graded" but I would be reluctant to have mine "slabbed and graded" because the whole feel of the nicely presented collection in a nice cabinet would be gone.

    What do you collect?

    It is a very formidable collection you have there! I am helping research prices for Chris. I am mostly involved in half pennies but I help out as much as I can. I especially like your selection of half pennies, I collect 1900-1936 ones though.
  20. Hi everyone, Could anyone please tell me why George V half pennies almost always have a soft strike? I have not seen one where all detail is sharp. Hlaf Penny Jon.
  21. Gold. When I went onto ebay.com, I found this seller who is selling the most wonderful collection of gold I have ever seen:
  22. The article looks really good! Which photo's did you donate?

    Peck

    So I should pay no more than £100 for one really. Thanks Sylvester, now I can set myself a limit.

    Peck

    How much would you be prepared to pay for a copy of Peck (second edition) everyone? Also, could anyone who already has a copy tell me how much they paid for it because I need some sort of a price guide for the book.
