  1. Wondering what my fellow collectors think of this one. Bought this a while back, 1853 Penny and was just having a wee looksy at it and found what looks like a B/B in Britanniar, i say looks like, but in the hand its more like a definate to me, the curve of the B has another curve underneath, and inside the B there is definately another strike there. Here's the picture, it's not the greatest unfortunately but i hope you can see what i'm seeing. Moi...
  2. If you create a myth it's always going to be intriging. Take the loch ness monster for instannce, a myth some say, genuine others say. There will always be hunters for Nessie, and there will always be buyers for rarities.
  3. Just out of curiosity, what do you think of this, and whats the crap on the bottom of the REV?
  4. Thanks 400, but next time i doubt i'll be selling one in that condition. I just hope i can pick up another/others in that state. Just as a side note, it went up 185 quid on the last minute
  5. I did'nt actually, i thought the look of it would sell it, but i did'nt imagine to that extent, i thought maybe 100 pounds, so i was happy enough with the outcome back then, but in hindsight
  6. It was my coin a little time back when i was'nt into Pennies or copper at all, i dare'nt tell you what i paid for it, i think the guy must have had a rush of blood to the head, it was only 2 figures and less than €60, i nearly ripped his arm off for it. I 'm now kicking myself for letting it go, it was a real beauty. I had it on Ebay and i think i had around 60 watchers at the time.
  7. It sold for 314 pounds
  8. What do you all think of this one? recently sold
  9. And which of those did you buy Mat?
  10. 400s gasket might be about to blow, maybe Red can help with that to
  11. 400 i love your dry wit, i actually understood what you meant. I have very sarcastic humour, we must meet and you buy me a beer that you promised.
  12. Would have been a pain in the neck if he popped his cloggs inbetween those dates
  13. If someone could point out the midified efigy of a 1926 penny and tell me what i'm looking for, and also how can a 1922 Penny be stamped on the back of a 1927, its 5 years in the future, is someone yanking my chain here?
  14. You mean Victor? 1949
  15. Peckris, you're in danger of being renamed Victor Meldrew
  16. How about you uploading some of those Penny pictures 400. Would love to see a few of them.
  17. To be honest, i would'nt pay out 23k on a disc either, i could buy a nice car with that, 400s comment on him not being happy because of the upwardly prices of said coins has a double edge to it,, in one sense its costing more to buy, but on the other hand, when you come to sell 400
  18. As we always say on here, and i'll repeat, "a coin is only worth what you as a buyer is willing to pay" auction fever should be registered as an illness with the BMC
  19. London Coins June auction. http://www.londoncoins.co.uk/index.php?page=Preview
  20. The link to the auction...will also post in the links section for safe keeping for realised prices later. http://www.londoncoins.co.uk/index.php?page=Preview
  21. There you go......Lot 2034 as referred to above. Not especially impressive IMO It still doesn't scream 2k more like 2 quid lol, although copper pennies seem to be all the rage right now, suppose i'll never buy one then
  22. Sorry, but i would'nt be paying those prices for it
  23. This should interest those of you using pound coins.... Coin handling equipment company, Willings Services Ltd, have posted on to the web a catalogue of the counterfeit one-pound coins they have identified PDF FORM http://www.willings.co.uk/Cataloge%20fake%20types.pdf And again, a little something on Pound coin fakes http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/moslive/article-1230900/Heads-tails-One-1-coins-fake-Today-40-counterfeit.html
