Declan is correct about the picture. For a guide though MS61 will likely be somewhere between EF and UNC Therefore £40 to £85. These are Spinks latest (2013)catalogue values. The JH florin is the commonest 19C florin so I would never buy at book price.

I saw this magnet tester for gold and silver. The video is interesting. If you want one the 2nd link is much cheaper. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gold-Silver-Coin-Testing-Neodymium-Magnet-Eagle-Dollar-Maple-Leaf-Krugerrand-/300833385430?pt=UK_Coins_Supplies_RL&hash=item460b112bd6 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221162659737?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

I saw that over there. I read about spittal and tinfoil on hammered.(Not to rub)

Ouch. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UNKNOWN-1792-I-D-DATED-YELLOW-COIN-/261136141003?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&nma=true&si=ZXtscHMgklN9SD2f3cmiCqImrsI%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

But still some interesting date combos left. Next year, for example, we've got 11/12/13 02/02/2020 is a perfect palindrome ~ the converse of 20/02/2002 ....to name but two..... Incidentally, next year is the first since 1987, not to have at least 2 digits the same. That only works if you subscribe to the appalling computer-driven modern tyranny of having to place a zero in front of a single-digit day or month. Something I resolutely refuse to do, and if I'm filling in a form with boxes for the date, I just leave the first box empty without putting their horrid horrid zero in it. Mind you, there will be some interesting genuine palindromes yet to come - 31/1/13 is the next one! Don't you mean 31/01/13

I've just peed on Mrs Peter's planted bush...It feels good. Plus I've ordered 2 sneekie coins and a book...I wear the trousers.

Bugger off the farthings...if Azda gets a sniff he will be in shooting both barrels.

Just ordered my copy. My last one was 2010. A bit of Xmas reading. They could easily sell pre milled,milled and post decimal versions.

That will be interesting for Rob (unless he is involved)

Looks too bright and appears cleaned. Nasty.

Over £12 for a EF Churchill bit of TAT...No thanks.

Talking of photography a lot can be said of Heritage auctions handiwork.

Lovely Daggenham dumpster is that the 1.3 l OR 1.4 LX....I had both.Also Sierra,s Caveliers.Xantiant's and a lada

I shall go outside for a cigar...not a Cuban but Xmas is 2 weeks away.

What a splendid cycle rack...I was trying to think of a use

Removing a hedge from my parents front garden an Edward 1 penny appeared.....beautiful Suffolk.

I do hope Mrs Peter dose not read this

Me too Could not resist.

what guy?.......i can only see a buxom young wench. I'm the one on the right

Aeroplane blond (she has a black box)

Each to their own.OK it is published but I get a serious slabbing from the Peter family if I get exited without a serif on my B.

Brilliant I do my Ebay searches on a regular basis for my varieties.

I was popping on and off and estimates for anything decent were wiped with the open gam.bits
