    You must have a lot of time on your hands!
  2. Andy said he would try to find out more at Wakefield today...
  3. I meant they wouldn't appear ever...that's if the thief has anything about him.

    Ebay

    That's been banned now, sellers aren't allowed to do it anymore. I had a mean streak last weekend and was reporting lots of listings who charged a fee.
  5. Wow what a haul. Do we think they were stolen to order? There's some fairly "hot" pieces there that couldn't really be sold on the open market now without raising suspicion. Is there any info on who they were stolen from? Edit: Posted on Colin Cooke's site - all other bases seem to be covered.

    What

    We have a specific thread for loons like this. I don't think any of those are errors.

    Ebay

    I do, yes. Contrary to what some people say, if there are good pictures and feedback is to your satisfaction, it is a wonderful tool. I bought the coin below last August from a Gibraltan dealer (or dealeress, she's a lady): Incidentally, those are the pictures she took.

    Creative grammar.

    good alternative to ebay

    It's one we all know and love, run by our very own Andy Bruce! Take a bow, Andy! *cheesy alert*
  15. I've been searching in vain for an Eimer or Fearon medal catalogue for months now - none has turned up!
  16. George II - 1 George III - 3 George IV - 2 William IV - 1 Victoria - 15 or so Edward VII - 5 George V - 2 Elizabeth II - 20 (change finds mostly) Total - 50 ish I also have some of the American State Quarters which I intend to collect all of, and then spend/sell them once complete.
  17. It's not really necessary to buy the new edition each year - much of the information remains the same. I tend to sell my old copy a few weeks before the release date of the next edition, and put the proceeds towards the new one.

    What is a Coin?

    The Mint usually do a £5-for-£5 offer where you pay £5 and get a £5 in BU, but with no packaging etc.
  20. I finally got my first 2004 £1 in change, it's taken long enough!
  21. Emperor Oli

    Why?

    I kept getting that when I tried to come on today, but it seems to have stopped now. Perhaps the servers were being tinkered with.
  22. Emperor Oli

    Nice Penny

    I wouldn't say surreal, my avatar is surreal . I'd say more...crusty. I think that's a goo word to describe it!
  23. Emperor Oli

    My first 2004 £1

  24. Emperor Oli

    Ludicrous
