WOW!

I guess the ink colour does suggest a connection with the variety? Many thanks, Rob, always appreciate your insights.
-
Sorry to labour this, but at the top of the ticket where it says ‘77 B win,’ do you think the Roman numerals represent the £38 he paid? I haven’t seen enough of his tickets to know whether he’s done that before? All the other ones I have are much simpler, with much less detail.

I’m guessing that all of Chris’ paperwork remains with his family, presumably having plenty of what we would call sensitive material connected with it, bank details, fees, charges, transfers, etc., quite likely too much for his family to go through and vet. Might even be easier to burn such stuff? I’d however love to read the background information and footnotes accompanying a couple of the numbers I currently have.

No way?
-
Thanks, Rob! Does anyone ever end up with all the paperwork from collections like these? All those pencil numbers must correlate with some probably extensive written records?
-
Blimey, Rob, you actually have those bulletins? Truly phenomenal, and thank you so much for digging that out! So, are these references to ‘other’ coins, or connected to the actual coin itself?
-
Question 2) Another Comber ticket from a different coin. What do you think the references within the red oval means? Do you think the coin came from these sources, or is he just highlighting other examples he knows for comparison?
-
Another couple of questions: 1) Comber’s ticket behind…any idea what the reference indicates, as it might identify the other ticket, which is clearly linked by value? Is it Baldwin?

Origins Elizabeth I pencil/charcoal picture?
Coinery posted a topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
I’m part of an Elizabeth I group on FB, looking at interesting historical facts, articles, items, etc., and someone shared today (obviously) that this is the day that Elizabeth became queen, at the death of Mary, using this picture. Does anyone know the origin, source, date of it? I haven’t got any further with the OP, and can’t seem to find it anywhere online! -

Just finished reading this article, absolutely fascinating! -
Ahh, yes, quite possibly…many thanks for that
-
Quick question: what does RCB refer to from the 40s? Also, a useful document, that I’m sure you’ve all seen before, so forgive me, I’m simply sharing it here to log it for myself https://www.britnumsoc.org/images/BIOGRAPHIES/6_Coin_Tikts/Coin-Tickets-Main-List-008.pdf

Something I’ve only just discovered if you use an iPhone…when you select your image, in the bottom left of the screen you’ll see an options button. Click on that and you get to choose a size to attach it at, with it also highlighting the Kbs at each size! Nice touch Apple!

Superb, thank you, excellent resource! -
Yes, try closing all the pages entirely before trying again. The file limit is a pain in the arse!

Thought this was good! “King’s Cross station, June 6th, at 4am - there’s something unusual going on?” -
Definitely rare in that grade! You’d have to walk a very long, long, mile to better it.

So funny, I have just posted a near mirror comment in the gardening thread

Any garden pics this year?
Coinery replied to copper123's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
This thread really isn’t for me, but I cannot help but be impressed by your dedication to this, and I of course love your historic referencing in this particular post…amazing passion, input, and care! Superb! -
Exquisite, Rob…you have some of the loveliest pieces out there, that could easily be the best of that mark/date?
-
I was a total idiot, yesterday, and let this go because it went £40 beyond my decided top bid…I should’ve just decided I really wanted it instead. The commonest of 3ds but uncommonly beautiful! I’ll never learn!
-
I’d also 100% concur with the two dies matching yours, what a find!
-
Oh, wow, minus the crack, that’s a great penny with ANY mark. Goodness me he fell on his feet with that one…they’re out there, then! Viva la eBay
-
That’s exactly how I would approach it too!
