1887 ½ Crown - Victoria 2nd portrait Jubilee this is a better one I now have than before. I did pick up on the ridge on the edge, there's no bash to the outer edge I then took a closer look and the SOIT has another strike to the letter I & T.... is this a rarity ?

are there any images of this to see? to be honest I didnt have a clue about this. cheers for the guidance 👍

it was the days of boot fairs i miss, then the bloody computers...oh and now the phones apps one guy held me up kept barging in whilst I was having a look see...still I did get the manky's and they cleaned up nicely... all the best and good hunting. 👍

1887 Victorian Six Pence Victoria 2nd portrait; 1st reverse Jubilee Head.... Engraver: Joseph Edgar Boehm apparently some have a error 'R over V' in VICTORIA..... I read some where that this is referred to as the Withdrawn Type....anyone know of this? 2 out of my 3 seem to be in nice condition,....... 👍

I think it was a 20p purchase many many moons ago.....still not tempted to dip into the ice cream container of pennies 50p each to the Antiques fair... there's silver out there ....somewhere with my name on them, many many thanks "H"

Well thank you kindly Mr Paddy, I'm still unsure about these penny's you know, they just don't sing to me, nice to see everyone's with all the different variations but lost the interest within a few moments, Sorry! just not my thing, However, I'll pick them up along the way and show...and should anyone happens to want them shout out, Ps..I beleve this is a £1.50p coin !?!??!? Once again Many thanks and all the best, "H"

Ive not been interested in the Pennies...however this one was mixed in so why not show and join in, I know nothing other than its Bronze, 1877, theres a chunk missing by the letter R on outer edge....is this a mint fault? could this be a rare, valuable and scarce coin to behold??????? ok, over to you guys, all the very best "H" (uninterested in Pennies)

I had a bit of a look around and found this on Numista you may be able to find more out about this medal.... A satirical medalet produced in 1830 to commemorate the appointment of Charles Grey, the second Earl Grey, as British Prime Minister. He retained that post from 1830 until 1834. The medal was made because the previous Prime Minister, the Duke of Wellington who had defeated Napolean Bonaparte at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, had refused to allow for the reform of the British Parliamentary system and had been forced to resign. Grey took his place in 1830 and his government passed the Reform Act of 1832 and abolished slavery throughout the British Empire the following year. all the best "H"

5 Reichsmark 1935 Paul von Hindenburg Years1935-1936 I was trying to find out what mint this was from, ah! and now I notice A (= Berlin, Germany) just in front of the 1847..... Ive been looking for a few days... and there it was!

Another find amongst foreign coins at a boot fair 1990's only just emptying out other uninteresting coins this is a keep... 2 Reales 1721 Philip V Segovia Aqueduct Mint Assayer Francisco De Pedrera Y Negrete

many thanks, I think I can now make out the London and the Civitas Cantor Canterbury I can see it clearly now this is pointed out, ....its been a great help and still finding more that I'm working though Civitas is a Latin word that means citizenship, state, or city-state. hence CIVITAS CANTOR = Canterbury CIVITAS LONDON . All the very best "H" 👍

Many thanks for this, so one is Canterbury class 9, the other is Class 10... would this be Canterbury? or Calais , London?? with these I read somewhere , "No mintmarks were issued during the reign of Edward I, II. A system combination of Mint place names and Moneyer's was used" errrrrmmm? How?? many many thanks "H"

was looking for a post to add some of these coins to.... the rabbit isn't mine, the "Jack" may be a Love token... I have another that is Victorian 3 pence thats very elaborately engraved. to add later on. all the best "H"
