Major Copper Rarities
Peter replied to Generic Lad's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Agreed - and being published annually, it's more up to date too. Under a fiver on amazon! I think I will get a copy. Does anyone know what the release date will be for the 2012 edition? Save me buying two if its out soon. Chris Perkins the owner of this site can only tell you that. I can't see a 2012 edition coming out this year....but I'm sure Chris will confirm. The information on rarities and key dates won't change. -

Major Copper Rarities
Peter replied to Generic Lad's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
A few obvious farthings 1863,1874h with both G's over on the obverse,1875 large date and small date with NO H,1895 bun. I would also consider 1883,1892 & all reasonable Edward V11 (1914&15) are also quite rare as are lustred 1935 & 1938 Have a look at Colin's site Aboutfarthings or use collectors coins GB by Chris. Happy hunting -
1919 Penny double date
Peter replied to HAXall's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
It isn't a rare coin.Even near perfect I wouldn't want to pay much more than £15.The mintage was massive. -

Advice on coin prices for a newbie?
Peter replied to Mongo's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Detector finds are often barrelled this tends to wear detail. There good and bad coins found with a detector.Some coins do get plough damage. It does help to be able to ID the coins. -
A newbie and a Henry III voided long cross penny
Peter replied to thecapuletconspiracy's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Welcome to the forum. There are many classes and mints for Henry longcross 1d's. Your coin is very worn with little to go on.I can't see a sceptre.A good book for IDing hammered is England's striking history. Sorry I can't be off more help. -
Why would this Half Guinea be losing its colour?
Peter replied to azda's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
The obverse appears to be a very weak strike. I can't believe PCGS graded this. -

Gary Put your hard earned money away.I am in the age bracket that means I won't get state pension until I'm 68.Why haven't we had riots about this? I had 100k in my pension fund which became 60k in 2008.I've never had debt (apart from the house)My girls both want to go to Uni. I shall pay for subscriptions to the Young Farmers club and hope. Coins and George 11 furniture are on my hit list.Don't worry about the chavs they will go for a playstation every time.

Nice one Bob After many years of collecting the quality counts...plus a bit of sun and wife and kids treats.Four bags of chips followed by Devon ice cream isn't too bad.The holiday money may get spent. I have coincided coin fairs myself.

Bob How was your Florida trip? Every day I can drive around the country lanes and see guys digging up more history to send over the pond.I search on a monthly basis..weather and family dependant. On holiday in 2009 we booked a place in Devon with a private beach.A small boat came in and the guy had detectors.I saw him pluck a Victorian diamond ring and several green bronzes before he found a George 111 Sov.All I got was a bucket of shrimp and prawns and a red neck.

Peter replied to azda's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
It varied...old copper nose (Henry V111) Fine silver issue coins of Edward V1. Generally our coinage was the finest and even imitated and accepted by many nations. worth a google
