  2. Hello to all I wonder if I can pick your collective brains regarding this 1930 penny of mine?. Ihave uploaded a scan although that may not help. The best way I can describe it is that it has a very lightly sandblasted appearance.

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    I agree entirely, all the colons and differences in engravers initials are unneccesary. The ME changed the portrait of George V from a rather unpleasant looking murderer to a genial old buffer. As to the question of artifice or ignorance, perhaps someone respected should email him and point it out. I know it is 'buyer beware' but as collectors seem so confused about this issue it is surely incumbent upon anyone calling himself a dealer to be above reproach. I suppose anyone with £1595 to spend on an ME is likely to know one when he sees one. However that offer worries me. David

    It's not an ME. The ME has a pupil to the eye, and the colon after BRITT is close, not equidistant like BRITT:OMN Also, the ME is a much nicer portrait of George v, with better defined hair. I hope he didn't give too much for it! The worrying thing is, he has already had 1 offer - lets hope it was for about £20 This IS an ME. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...bayphotohosting David

  8. Hi All Yes, I thought it looked like a gaming token or a medallion or something. Surely to pay that amount of money you want a ticket or a peck no, some sort of corroboration. Regards David
  9. Hi to all This is my first post, I don't know if any of you saw the 'error farthing' on ebay? . Is it a farthing? to me it could be anything, it must be a pattern, as the portrait is different, no size was given. Was it worth £595?!!!!!!! Regards Dave
