Yes I agree - nice replicas from the same original, but that's all they are.

Ah, got you. So you managed to sell it for £8000 then? This one is a new one, I take it - you really are lucky, finding two 1933 pennies...

Don't worry - they'll reappear under a different name...

It took me a couple of minutes to get "Dafuk"

That looks like a classic tetradrachm (or similar) from the Philip of Macedon era. There are many variations on the 'head obverse / eagle reverse' design. HOWEVER, to have three that are absolutely identical doesn't ring true (if you'll excuse the pun). Just as no two hammered medieval coins are identical due to striking methods, so the same applies to ancient coins. Put the three side by side and take a photo, but crop out the vast border area you've got, and the site should accept it (500k per post is the limit). You can always post the reverse in a separate post in the same topic.

@copper123 Perhaps you also know the lyrics to 'No Bidder, No Cry'?

No-one did bid £8k on it. Well, no-one apart from dimond girl aka marleybob

Sadly they promised the same thing in ?2009 but b*gger all happened, except that felling got worse. Brazil has gone from being a net absorber of CO2 to being a net emitter.

Me too, but Waitrose is also good if I can't get SH

Yes I have goats milk too, and goats cheese and butter. The only cow product I use is cream which doesn't have lactose.

Oatly is good stuff, I've tried it.

I'm wondering if it's an eBay thing? In other words, if you offer something at a high price and it stays unsold, perhaps you get some kind of improved status as a seller though I can't think what..

Yes, silica gel is a good dessicant, but it must be dried regularly when it's absorbed moisture.

Ah, Fat Freddy's Cat... My favourite:

Not really scarce as such, but everything from 1887 on is so common that 1894 almost stands out as an exception.

It may just be a temporary glitch, but today the main Unread Content button missed loads of topics, which I gathered from the bottom of each topic which showed other unread posts. Yet the main Unread page showed only one topic per forum unread.

No, this was strange behavious on just one day - it only showed one post per forum even though there were several more. But it's ok now.

Sarawak, Sarawak, karakakola ka karakak (karakak karakak) Sarawak, shy shy Sarawak... (Some of you will now be scratching your heads and saying "Wha--?")

Paywall. Sorry...

When you're in a wheelchair it's a lot easier to negotiate a computer than a book. Anyway, the newer Macs are very low on power as they're using 5nm chips, and before long will be down to 3nm which consume ridiculously little power.

Do you mean ESC or the Standard Catalogue?

nevertheless, it's a very nice spoon!

"Bob" pronounced as in Blackadder Goes Forth, of course...

Apparently someone here messaged her in her dimondgirl guise and addressed her as 'marleybob' - he says she never replied which doesn't surprise me in the least!

Because *IF* (and it's just an if...) the pennies were struck just to test out the new electronic presses, then it makes sense they weren't testing dies but merely the equipment. If that wasn't the reason, then yes, it's all up for grabs.
