  1. probably not... i have 1 of those also and one from 2001
  2. got this one looks like burn damage but...
  3. i acctually like it like that, brings out the raised areas more

    Split Sixpence

    yea i have a few in average grade (got a bag which worked out at like 5-10p a coin) got about 7 EF 1937s and a 1953 type 1 in ful llustre in that bag i do have a full lustre 1944 too a bargain as it was in a bulk buy i wouldn't think 1946 and 49 be cheap in top grade though
  5. thats what we lose with photos, we lose the details we need, cant beat in hand.
  6. same with most hammered isn't it? due to them being thin
  7. i picked up bost types of 2008 1p this week, been a while since i seen old design have 2 old design 2p's 3 10p's and 5 of the £1 all old design 2008 lol not seen a britannia 50p, getting 1997's every flipping day
  8. yea quite common on all demoninations, (they are posted somewhere) but you will normally see this error every day i have 2 10p's that are double struck too.
  9. looks clean enough already but yea i would go with that grade
  10. yup dye wear on that. i have noticed 2008 pennies with the legend near the rim fainter then normal... guess its new dyes etc. i have found many 20p's of varying dates post 1998 with blobs on the queens hair
  11. what were 6D's being used for in decimalization, the only coin that is that size is the current 5p
  12. looks like a dye error, i have one on a 2002 coin where part of the 2 is filled in
  13. thats a nice overstrike on the C too
  14. not seen any of the earlier pre 97 £2, do have one of the commonwealth games AND the 2008 olympic games £2's though
  15. there must be more then 1 slender 3... hard to believe they would make a dye for a single strike
  16. i love those things but yea it possibly could, as the dutch had new york for a time great little cheap coins they didn't really change design can pick em up for a few quid each, great if you want something from the 1700's

    Beautiful 10 CENTIMES A France 1882

    dang.. where can i get this book :/ dont get me wrong it is a nice coin, i have a collection (mostly post 1920) french coins, its not that big but its easy to get bits for, but i shall have to see, as i am not sure myself on the french coins in general, and the most i have spent is abut a fiver on some early bits
  18. of course i do expect some double striking to occur, but i have so far found 2 of differant dates http://www.omnicoin.com/coin_view.aspx?id=970609 note the queens neck is the best spot, larger images will come later showing it is all the way around http://www.omnicoin.com/coin_view.aspx?id=970741 look near date and queens chin
  19. i have loads... but my 1909 came in a bulk buy i paied a couple of quid for lol dont have the other 2 though
  20. which as we know... didnt work lol i would so love one of those... so many little odds and ends in the bronze penny series i would love to own though
  21. scott

    1918 KN pennies

    those other things are dye cracks though, so perhaps some dye wear

    Insurance

    keeping recipts is one thing, what if you got something rare on the cheap? my 1858 small date farthing came with a card with the price of £5... no way would i be able to replace it at that. but yea use omnicoin, its a great place, i really do need to add up the total value of my collection, i know 3 or 4 of these coins are worth a fair chunk of the total value of my colelction (the 1858 farthing, 1939 rhodesia 6D, 1840 EF farthing = £120-150 alone)
