    To be fair, looking at the resale pictures (which are much better than the original seller's), he got it for a very decent price. Though his selling price is a tad optimistic for a coin that - despite lustre - is barely VF! ... possibly not even that.

    £15 ?

    I assume all those 'desig's are American? They are the only collectors who seem even remotely interested whether a coin is 'red' (by which they mean yellow/orange of course), 'red/brown', or 'brown'.

    can you decipher those "desig"s? I infer that PF stands for 'proof' but what the hell is the rest of it?

    Feedback of 90% says it all really.

    that looks as though it COULD be a 3/2?

    is that the very rare 'lighthouse on lighthouse' variety? 😆

    I saw that. I don't smell a rat, I smell a dead heffalump...

    Possibly you meant it IS an error? But not a fake.

    VIP proof? (Very Improbable Price)

    Presumably surgical spirit - being clear - doesn't have any dye problem?

    All been fine here, on my ancient version of Firefox.

    It's not entirely 'cached' - yes, that's part of the reason, but it's mainlyt down to the fact that your browser is running the site a bit "behind". As you say, refreshing the page should resolve things, but having said that I've never had a problem with Noonans where the video shows separately from the lot information and two appear to be in sync.

    Return it, get a refund.

    my thought is that it's a striking error at the Mint (misstrike) ... but if there's only the one, it's not likely to command a premium and wouldn't be considered a 'variety' as such.

    I know! Gobsmacked is an understatement of how I feel..

    I'd go for a grade of AUNC on that reverse - it may in fact be UNC but the 'lustre wear' together with the fact that it's a slightly weaker strike than the obverse would make me downgrade it a little.

    It also just "looks" wrong, on an intuitive level.

    wonder if the buyer has bounced it yet?

    Interesting that the market was featured on tonight's BBC Spotlight

    Windows appeared in the 80s! And the first useful version 3.1, was 1990?

    apparently that's one theory. another says it's from an OED editor CT Onions. yet another says it began in the US.

    TOY COINS

    Yes, somewhere I have a couple of those. Very nice and probably my only toy coins. (I think the engraver - SGO - has the surname Onions??) It's the future Edward VII in case you were wondering...
