  1. link http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271715533653?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D271715533653%26_rdc%3D1 Thanks for the link If you enlarge the obverse, it looks like someone has punched her in the mouth and knocked out all her teeth!
  2. That's ok. They won't notice. It's a well known fact that the Germans don't have a sense of gourmet...
  3. A coin is for life, not just for Christmas...
  4. I'd personally rate that as 'normal' deviation. Anything over 45º out becomes more and more interesting, but only 180º would be a true variety.
  5. That Liberian coin is fascinating. It appears, from the 'ghosted' portions of reverse, that he may have simply re-used and re-engraved a Cartwheel twopence or one penny die? It would be interesting to know the dimensions of the Liberia coin. Sorry. Been at work. To answer the questions the Liberia cent is smaller than cartwheels. 28mm, 9g of copper so closer to the Isle of Man halfpenny .... . Thanks Tom. Those are interesting marks on the reverse though.
  6. Excellent video.
  7. Which one of the 3 is in the greatest need of help? Piers Morgan, Simon Cowell or the woman - whoever she is? Amanda Burton? I agree! I thought I was listening to The Pav when he opened his mouth. Amanda Holden. Oh yes. There's an actress and an airhead. I got them mixed up.

  9. I echo the sentiments - Happy Christmas everyone! And thanks to Chris for this great forum.

  11. Peck is probably one of the best authorities on Taylor.
  12. It's difficult to say with that glare-y exposure, but I'd say it was certainly better than VF - it COULD be EF, but we'd need better pictures.
  13. Yes. eBay. When you make a purchase from The Royal Mint you're not simply buying a coin, you're owning a piece of history.

  15. Didn't know he'd gone
  16. Wow. Your English is so good I would never ever have guessed it isn't your first language. A lot of Europe is like that. Within a few years of my wife coming here, my customers didn't realise she was foreign when she answered the phone. and her grammar is better than the locals' You live in Manchester, don't you Rob?

  18. Well, he pretends to be Not that I've been hoodwinked by him... and he's not getting the chance.
  19. Looks ok to me ("VG" is a bit optimistic for that Willie IIII halfcrown reverse )
  20. Is that really you saying that Azda..??..lol ! I think there's a certain member of parliament he'd make an exception for I didn't think Alex Salmond was a Westminster MP yet! The MP I'm thinking of would get all his non-existent cronies to ensure any vote went his way
