  1. I do most of mine there When Mrs Peter is tucked up in bed
  2. Colin It doesn't work like that. I've been getting a list of things to do.Then there is cash in the attic,bargain hunt and only fools and horses.Dog walking,read the paper.....clear up after the kids...the day is gone.
  3. I do believe a meeting/night out would be brilliant So much to disguess. A couple of pints and some wine/veg/steak may be a swim and followed on by the Midland fair.
  4. I will second that. The 1718 1/4d is quite something else. I would love Corbets 1693 and your 1718.I have bought some top coins....nothing comes near the Petition crown.
  5. Who in their right mind will pay a premium for some Mickey Mouse TPG to tell them what they have.?

    Amazing

    I would be a veggie but meat and fish tastes so good.Mrs Peter avoids meat(she hates fat) but when I do her a nice blood dripping steak she has a sparkle in her eyes. I also like to hunt and forage.I do like a game bird

    I have to moderate what I drink.My legs are no longer hollow. However a couple of pints of proper scrumpy, proper toast (using a toasting fork) and a decent cigar does it for me.
  8. You have to be really keen to buy that.It isn't nice

    I had a foreman living in the SW and he bought me a gallon of cider every Monday....The week is a blurr. £5 a bargain.

    I worked at Ness Point in Lowestoft for approx 2 years.Donnie Coles smoke house was 100 yards away and Jones the fish monger was half a mile away.I also worked with a local who put me onto hot whelks.On Friday I brought home a few dover soles.kippers and smoked prawns. Stuff the supermarkets.Dressed cromer crabs at £1 each were also the finest.

    I still love the old stuff like bloaters. I did a pan full of sprats last year and my daughters,cat and dog loved them.Grilled sardines on a hot Portugal beach WOW. We now beach find food in North Norfolk...a couple of baked spuds and a flagon of ale :)

    Hello, New here !

    A half sov is worth £140 minimum. cash for gold are a rip off.

    Amazing

    Port and kippers? Euwww. Peck you should go for it.Everything cancels out for an afternoon lovefest.
  14. What are the 1863 varieties? I must check mine out. Dot under lighthouse Do you have any pictures? There was one in the colin cooke collection 2006- It is still on the website even 6 years after colins death - A fantastic tribute to him and probably there for good - even more useful than colin's site (sorry colin) I think Aboutfarthing's site is the best reference for farthings.I love the collections at CC.Imagine a day with Peck/CC/FS mulling over collections
  15. There have been a couple of dot 1863's on Ebay recently but not that nice.Punters were paying a premium for this variety.

    Hello, New here !

    OH I wish I was in Cornwall...I love it down there.Trevone bay in May :) we have eaten of the beach many times.....with a pastie.
  17. The search go's on.Freeman/Peck fell short.
  18. In theory a nice idea. However,the coin doesn't tick any boxes for me.
  19. A 35% skim on 2d worth of silver accounts to 0.7d of silver per coin.A satisfying return I would imagine.

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Nice coin but I would want an UNC.What a knobber :o
  21. What do Spink know.? We as collectors know the rarity. They miss out on several....love it
  22. ccgb 2010 values these at f £10 vf £25 ef £60 unc £100. The value of this variety is slightly higher in Spink on VF+.
  23. I'm burning the midnight oil tonight.My instructions tomorrow are dog walking plus it is my youngest daughters birthday...15 I will have to cook but will try and steal a few coin hours Dave I know its not your first language but you must try harder. I'm watching the food channel on freesat.Those pigs deserve to die early (and not the Porky ones)
  24. Before Peck picks you up....it is too
