"YOU ARE BIDDING ON ACTUAL COIN IN PICTURES" Not sure of that as a sales pitch...

It IS real. It's an altered date, but a very nice example.

Nor me. Without more evidence I'd have to conclude that this is a case of someone seeing what they want to see, or making something out of nothing.

My brother likes to practice cricket on his own, but I sneaked up on him and caught him out.

Is that the one divided in 3 horizontal sections so you can compare pictures of different obverses and reverses?

Makes a change from kippers!

DOH! You never heard the phrase "shooting fish in a barrel"?

Just looking at your interests Mick. When you've finished a barrel of cider do you use it to shoot fish?

Reminds me of the 3 French kittens that went skating on thin ice. Sadly un deux trois cats sank.

When it comes to soaps, I waver between the BBC & ITV. I'm transEnder.

Well done all, though I should point out that @Paddy was the first with the answer (via PM)

Send me a PM with your answer!

A man told his son that he would give him $1000 if he could accomplish the following task. The father gave his son ten envelopes and a thousand dollars, all in one dollar bills. He told his son "Place the money in the envelopes in such a manner that no matter what number of dollars I ask for, you can give me one or more of the envelopes, containing the exact amount I asked for without having to open any of the envelopes. If you can do this, you will keep the $1000." When the father asked for a sum of money, the son was able to give him envelopes containing the exact amount of money asked for. How did the son distribute the money among the ten envelopes?

And the meew shall inherit the earth...

All these people have probably formed a bubble. South Sea...

As God is apparently delivering this, the winning bidder may have a long wait...

Serious change of colour here! Which is which, I wonder? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1749-GEORGE-II-FARTHING/123927592569?_trkparms=aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131003132420%26meid%3D57b9f72e87394f1491590889b30afb06%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dpf%26sd%3D274326733979%26itm%3D123927592569%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675%26algv%3DSimplAMLv5PairwiseWebWithBBEV1Filter&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 Sold by Tara Potterr of Potters Antiques, Colston Street, Bristol. Uh?? Surely not... I remember a Potters Antiques in Bristol in the late 60s..

I assumed everyone would already know that!

Britannia's knockers?

small but fertile, you're saying?

Because a penny wasn't nearly enough to pay the ransom!

I've offered to swap a unicorn for it.

Freud would have a field day with the positioning of the lower end - a signal to women?

I rather think - though it took long enough - that their ongoing ban from international sporting competition continues to sting them.
