  1. Keep out the oss road !
  2. I'd quite like those.
  3. All I know is that Pink Floyd's first album has a track called POW R TOC H
  4. That's exactly what a tag is!
  5. It wouldn't go to your PM inbox. As for Notifications, what Paddy said above may be the answer (something in your settings).
  6. I'd not heard that theory before - that the British Museum requested a 1920 penny in 1921 and an example was struck using an Obverse 3 die which was being used at the time. It sounds perfectly feasible. The one potential flaw in it is: why wouldn't the Mint have sent a 1920 penny that they must have had knocking around? Or does the Mint dispose of every unissued strike before they start minting a new date? Also, does the BM keep an example of every date and every denomination struck? If not, I can't think of a reason for them to have a 1920 penny unless there was something special about it.
  7. When someone tags you, you get a notification.
  8. Rishi Sunak looks like Ugli Patel's ventriloquist doll! But I think we all know who will last the longer...
  9. No, definitely a lamb.
  10. Yes, the monthly became a fortnightly for a couple of years - these were all regular issues so there was no 'monthly' for that period.
  11. Or maybe there was an early hoarding of 1966 once everyone knew all pennies would be dated 1967 for the remaining years? I'm sure if there was, it must have ended fairly abruptly as 1966 pennies were very common subsequently.
  12. Ah, so it would depend on my having the issues in question?
  13. Are you offering an index to the articles, or a copy of the actual articles Mike?
  14. There's a major confusion due to a mix up between 1919 and 1919H. Apart from that, the estimated numbers seem very close to the actual found for 20thC pennies. Though I'm slightly baffled by the zero estimates for 1922 and 1926, I'd have thought some of each would be expected.
  15. Doctor Doctor - The Thompson Twins Doctor Elbowbump Elbowbump - 5000 Volts A Nightingale built In Berkeley Square We Gotta Get Out Of This Place - The Animals Tiers - Ken Dodd
  16. I believe Eddie Grundy might have some valuable advice?
  17. Including: Neil Young - The Needle & the Damage Done Roger Whittaker - Durham Town Elvis Costello - Pills & Soap & Gel
  18. Railway employees threatened mutiny until their bosses laid things on the line.
  19. Furniture in the House of Commons has been height adjusted after an MP rushed in and tabled his amendments.
  20. A single rare bronze, whatever the emperor, wouldn't be classed as treasure trove. In fact, AFAIK, single coins never are.
  21. Not to mention Spinal Tap...
  22. You would expect to see the whole date, yes. However if it was only partly clogged so that the 4th digit was in lower relief, it would be the first to be worn away fully. My guess is that it's a late 1861 (Obverse / Reverse being the commonest types, i.e. as used for 1862-69) with the 1 worn away and not leaving any traces.
  23. Yeah, that's a possibility also.
