Silly computer question
Half Penny Jon replied to kuhli's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
Do you do french at school William? -
I only have one edition, the 2002 one which was sold to me by a dealer when I purchased a coin. I like the detail it goes into about certain varieties for both decimal and predecimal.

I should imagine that they are circulated like every other coin. -
They must be very sad to throw away money to Ebay and to do that when there is no point in doing it.

The London coin Fair
Half Penny Jon replied to Half Penny Jon's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I am mainly looking for half pennys to fill my date gaps, I think there should be a nice selection of high grade ones there. I will try to be there for 8.30 or about that because I want to be the first person in line! -
The London coin Fair
Half Penny Jon replied to Half Penny Jon's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I've just booked flights, I'll be there on the other side of the tables, sharing one with my mate Richard. Last time I did very well, and it is huge, so it would be silly not to do it again. I shall see you there then Chris! P.S: What is the best time for collectors to arrive there to get the best stuff? -

1969 10 pence trial coin?
Half Penny Jon replied to a topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Ah yes, maybe they were doing trials for patterns? -
1969 10 pence trial coin?
Half Penny Jon replied to a topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
It sounds very interesting, trial pieces are hard to come by sometimes. It sounds right that it is a trial piece because it was tested in 1969. -

1969 10 pence trial coin?
Half Penny Jon replied to a topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I have never seen a trial peice for decimal coinage but the coin which you describe does indeed sound like a trial piece. Trial pieces are coins struck by the mint for testing purposes before they started to mint the new coins. Chris, can you add anything?
