i lay mine out like this... Coin|Alloy|Ref (Coincraft ref)|Class or Type|Date|Mint|Moneyor|Condition|Description|Value

I never used to bother, then i started keeping a handwritten record, followed by an excel one which got deleted during reboot, but was hopelessly out of date at the time. I then made a new one on Word, a few weeks ago after selling most things off, i went back to excel.

Well you see i think he's scamming and he knows it's not worth that much, he'd refuse to buy my £2 coin anyhow... he ain't the mug, but he's hoping one will bid.

I've got one of those, do you think he'd buy it off of me for a remarkable bargin of $100?

I hate it when they type the III in with 111 (just seeing one hundred and eleven, makes me want to throw a Churcher at them).

I wish i was in London for the fair too!

I agree with you, i much rather have it in book form, i can then make notes in it in pencil.

Was it Mihai, Chris that tried to fiddle coinpeople members? (was coinman27 over there) Just be on the look out.

Happy birthday Scott! (sorry about the delay)

I still don't think UNC in hammered is possible, the reason is who knows what a UNC hammered coin looks like? Because each coin can differ so much in strike and centering, what could be UNC on one very well struck specimen, could be only seen as VF on another. Now if one knew the history of the coins, the one grading VF might have never been used but just have a less than perfect strike etc, so it's technically UNC, whilst the UNC one may have been around a little, so it's not UNC. Impossible to tell. The reason why i say UNC is impossible is because you would need to find the best one in existence and compare all others to it, and even then a better one will no doubt show up because there's always a better one!

Wait till GD digs out the gold proof 1911 stuff, now that was more up my street than the toned silver! I like gold, i like gold alot!

That's obvious! MS-62, I maybe old fashioned but as far as i'm concerned no hammered coin qualifies for UNC.

I thought for a minute it'd be British so i wasn't going to enter. But i'm always glad of some US Silver... (I had a jarful somewhere). Enter me please.

Well my mother never really liked eggs or milk either. And i make up some of the stuff by eating lots of brocolli and... cabbage (i hate cabbage), much rather have spinach. Loads of veg, and vitamin tablets... Plus drinking bottled water does help a bit with the calcium, and i do have powedered milk with breakfast cereal although i'm not keen on that either. Much rather have croissants and a cup of black tea for breakfast. We don't actually have real milk anymore, my parents now have gone healthy (hence all the vitamin pills, i just pinch the ones i need), they have rice milk (milk made surprisingly from rice), and i cope with powdered cos rice milk is rancid.

I don't like eggs, milk, cheese (except Cheshire on a good day), cream etc... Milk used to make me sick as a child, i just avoid the stuff now.

Her mother was Victoria of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfield, and from what i hear Victoria was very glad when she became Queen because she got away from her overbearing and dominant mother. (Vicky's father the Duke of Kent, Geo IV and W4's brother had died many years earlier when she was but 8 months old).

ah it's alright then because i always use s to put pictures up.

im alergic to eggs and tuna; even though they are totaly different (an unhached bird and a dead fish), i get she same alergic reaction; i loose my voice for about 1 - 2 hours Allergic to eggs! You are so lucky, i've been trying to avoid egg all my life, even the smell makes me turn a funny shade of green...

Chris do the pictures i link to from Omnicoin use your bandwith or not?

I take it you don't like George IV! Infact we could come to the same conclusion about William IV, He kept Vicky's mother out of power by living long enough until Victoria could inherit in her own right. He was very worried about what her scheming mother might have done if he didn't make it... (or so i read!) So hats off to William IV!

Authoritarian is where you want a strong government, a government that keeps control and stability. (I like the discipline aspect of this). Libertarian is where you dislike the idea of a strong powerful government, you don't trust them and you think they are liars. (i'm inclined to agree with this). Right is the conservative/Aristocratic/Capitalistic/Republican in the US sense side. Left the opposite. I think this test is engineered from a more New Right perspective, i'm a great believer in 'if it ain't broke don't fix it', ideologies cannot fit onto society so why bother trying, you can't put a blueprint idea like Thatcherism, Socialism or Communism on society, it won't work. And Charity is not the best method of helping the unfortunate poor because people like me refuse to donate anything to charity ever. So the state should do something. (In case i ever fall in that kind of position). I think i'm either at the liberal end of the old right, or i'm a classic liberal. With regards to Ireland, we should give it back to the South and wash our hands of it, it'll be less hastle in the long run. We should never have got involved, Edward I should have turned a blind eye to Ireland and forgot it. What has Ireland ever actually done for us? Admittedly it did build us the Titanic... India was more productive we should have kept that instead.

Wars have been fought over less!

I've seen that second one before many times! I do belive my sixpence defeated it in the Popular idol contest! Nice to see some ducats though, it's just not a coin forum without ducats!

i'd reintroduce predecimal too, and gold and silver.
