Coinery

A bit of further reading for you!

Yes, these massively affect the value of the coin. Massively! Also, in all honesty, if I'd been selling this coin, I don't think I would've thought it necessary to mention such a glaring issue in the description? Can we have a close up of the overdate?

Was going with the flow, Peter! ?

Just thought I'd run it past you guys (and gals) first! 1 x Canon EOS 1100D Camera 1 x Canon Ultrasonic EF100mm f/2.8 Macro USM Lens Never been outside, and comes with original packaging, charger, manuals, discs, bag, tripod, strap, SD card, etc. I paid £700 plus delivery for it...would like £465 (free UK post). I won't be able to help AT ALL with using it, as I've only ever 'pointed and shot' with it, using a setting I'd never find again. The manuals and information are available with the camera, you'd need to have a keen interest in photography, that's for sure! I'd certainly recommend a local camera club. Anyway, a 100% genuine and well cared for camera if you're interested? Cheers, Stuart

A pleasure, I hope you enjoy it! Best regards, Stuart ?

Still feeling blessed, m'friend, thank-you! I think of you often, I hope things are easier; weird how a few years of cyber-talk can make a connection! Stay safe out there, buddy!

Does anyone have any ideas why I might be unable to access the forum through my wifi connection with WiFi Spark? I can access the forum using my phone data on GPRS, but this means I can't view images (without the patient of a saint), and get booted off with 'you don't have access to forum on this server' if I switch to wifi! I have an account with WiFi Spark who say it's not an issue with their service, and confirmed the forum route isn't blocked. I use a router which is wired to an outside aerial. My laptop also has the same error message when trying to connect to the forum via this wifi connection. I've cleared the cache on my laptop ( a month), but no difference! Any ideas?

Yes, I've enjoyed my godliness very much! People have been flocking to my door for advice, day and night! But, now, I'm tired of it all, I'm going to come over there and have some of what you are having instead! let's drink bourbon straight and talk about slabbing! Better get in the caterers too because this God is going to take a lot of talking round on that front, and we'll need to eat! John, you've got a long way to go before you'll ever come close to convincing me, or hopefully any other soul here!

This guy drinks more wine than I do!

Most, as I'm sure you will subsequently find, will actually agree, NOT disagree!

That's a fair response, from which I must now bow out!

I have 10 year old coins which have been acetoned before me right now! Where you are coming from on this I do not know, or why you perceive flicking off a green cruddy contaminant to be any different to removing grease?

For goodness sake, John, we are NOT talking about verd or oxidation here! For the benefit of anyone new, we are talking about removing contaminants BEFORE your product (whether it is good or not, and I'd say probably not) is ever required. Hopefully good practice in decontamination will reduce the necessity for your product full stop! i have to say I'm totally exhausted in explaining what is a very simple process that has ABSOLUTELY NO connection whatsoever to the process of cleaning! wiping a coffe spill from an antique piece of furniture is good practice, not full-blown restoration!

Thank-you, Sir!

Complete and utter rubbish! You are fundamentally misunderstanding the terms 'chemical' and 'cleaned!' Goodness this has been written about and clarified over and over again throughout this forum. preservation is altogether a different animal to enhancement! If you had red wine on your white carpet, would you attempt to remove it to spare the carpet from being irreparably damaged? If so, consider grease and grime on a coin in the same way! Leave it there are you will eventually have prints and blotches, verd and spots...your call! For any newbie that visits this post, please check for yourself, you will find no harm comes to your bronze and copper coinage from 'decontaminating' them! They will NOT suddenly look or actually be cleaned...you will only be removing things that will in the future damage your coins! To the new visitor...there are a million posts on here about acetone...please search for them and read them all!

Superb work alfnail and chingford! it's certainly one heck of an optical illusion that the B looks much bigger than the F. i concede: Penny Boys 1 Everything Else 0
