Charles I Tower shilling varieties

Don't worry! If I get an authoritarian identification I'll post it on the forum! -
17th Century English Tokens
Geordie582 replied to scottishmoney's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Congratulations! Nice collection -
I make it Spain Ferdinand 1455 Half real In circulation in England along with Flemish and French hammered coins. I assume the vast majority of the population was not too fussy about their coins, as long as they were silver!

Charles I Tower shilling varieties
Geordie582 replied to TomGoodheart's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
A dangerous statement Tom! It covers centuries of numismatics! The one I use in my avatar is still a challenge to all and sundry! I've sent it to the Coin News and am waiting with bated breath for a reply!!! -

At my age, I deliberately forget birthdays - so I've forgotten yours too! Don't get too high! -
What's happening about the book we gave a preliminary proof read earlier? Hope it's still in the offing as I enjoyed the extract we saw!

Artifical toning?
Geordie582 replied to Coppers's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
To me, artificial colouring is no different to the practice of enamelling coins. It hurts when the subject is one that you'ld give your eye teeth for in 'normal' condition. But I suppose we must admit that "each to his own" although messing about with coins is, in reality, messing with a small piece of history. -
Artifical toning?
Geordie582 replied to Coppers's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I'm not a milled collector, but I've noticed, on Coinpeople, the fixation with "pretty" patenas., and I've been convinced that the colours are more due to chemicals than time! -
As you obviously have Spinks, try looking at the Henry II "Tealby" issues and you'll see the problem.

"England's striking history"
Geordie582 replied to Geordie582's topic in Rotographic Publications Forum
Any forecast on publication for the book, Chris? Could you send me one when it apears? (I'm fed up trying to get Smiths to stock Coin books) -
Grading milled seems to be more of a science than hammered, the latter being VERY subjective. I disagree with most dealers on hammered and wonder how much they would alter their opinion should they be buying from you! Experience is the only sure teacher, but it will probably involve a certain amount of mistakes, some even expensive!

Looking good Chris, but I'd rather wait for the printed version, just to compliment my library! -

Geordie582 replied to Geordie582's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I'd guessed as much, but I've put one in my £2 series as a talking point! I wonder if I could start a rumour that 1992 10p's are REALLY RARE. I think I can lay my hands on a few! -

Wait until bending down becomes a major event! Then you'll know why Slip-ons were invented! -
Had a quick look at all books. High standard as usual. I like the new covers!

Hi There!
Geordie582 replied to FiftyPenceJoe's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
It was a modern handgrenade (not the old pineapple) So that places it firmly in the last 50 or so years. The shape is not really an age indication. Wish i could find the picture for you, but no success yet. -
Henry vi hammered coin?
Geordie582 replied to Bolt's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
It didn't work, though! Hence your coin! -
Hi There!
Geordie582 replied to FiftyPenceJoe's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
All I can say is that it was 50p shaped and the seller described it as 50p, but that doesn't mean much! I think it was a token of sorts.
