In the past we often used to go for long walks on a Sunday armed with my SLR. I would shoot 36 photographs and post them to bonus photo or the like...it was quite cheap and exiting awaiting the developed pictures.

Was your Yashica FXG? I was hankering after a Pentax ME super.

Has anyone opted out of the global shipping plan?

On the face of the jetton you can see it smacks of a French Jetton probably 15C

I still actually prefer books.

I'm not bothered with as struck hammered. I go for eye appeal every time. I like nice round coins with as few flat spots as possible I also like to ID them,even cut pennies. Keeps me off the streets.

Scott T Dog is the clue

I cannot remember the last time I looked at my Liz 11 half crowns.

I used my Praktica on safari in Kenya and the following year on touring the West Coast of USA. We went to USA with friends who used a top of the range Cannon SLR....guess who produced the best pictures

I still have my Zorki 4 from penniless student days "Ohhhh, those RRRRRussians..." Mine was East German

You can't leave us gagging.We do need a few pictures.

Liz 11 coins don't float my boat...OK a 1954 1d might. In my dealer hat on period I bought 40 1959 Scottish shillings. My attempt at selling them on Ebay was a disaster. I recall Declan got one for 99p.

I've got Nikon DSLRS and binoculars. When I was a penny less student I had a Prakctica B200 SLR with Zeiss lenses(I could never part with it)

How often I've pointed out errors in the description of coins in museums. But hey I'm Mr Grumpy.

Stewie Stop barging in.

Brandon You have the top bollocks in photography and some nice tokens....well respected.

T Dog.....please

Don't take Robs humblings. I've never met him but kinda respect him. I gave him a 1963 1/2d Only 49 left. Rob is a night hawk like my self.....well Scott....a treasure to the forum.

T DOG I doth my cap for the hours you put in.

Unbelievable. I'm sure my raw 1932 is as nice and worth £15 to £20.

I will buy to sell but I'm not a dealer but I can't refuse a bargain I'm selling mainly to trim down my collection to a reasonable size. Previously I was getting my daughters involved in the process so they could have a few things using my paypal. I've recently bought some great copper from my favorite US dealer. All duplicates but should earn a few £,000.

They will make what they can and grade as they like. Grading is subjective and if I picked up a bargain I'm not obliged to pass on my good luck. I have 2 ebay accounts one mainly for buying and one mainly for selling. I'm in a good mood...now!!!! tonight because a while back Mrs Peter reversed her car into a wall and broke the rear passenger lens. Hyundai wanted £350+ for a new unit.The cheapest I could get a lens from the breakers was £110 + delivery. I've just bought a 2nd hand (unused unit) for £75 delivered. I should be able to get her running around me for a few days. My MG also got 100% at the MOT test

Hi Chris Welcome. My coins relax me and I find the learning part rewarding. If you want to dabble in hammered I would suggest you purchase a book "Englands Striking History" to whet your appetite. £7 or £8 from this site or amazon.

Typical Stewie Not only has the longest rowing boat But also three day birthdays. I hope you and your harem have a great day.

I only kept 1 sov back when gold hit silly money.I took the profit (up to 500% in a few years) I kept my guineas. Copper and bronze sovs are my 1st choice (farthings use the same dies) Welcome to the forum.
