Having changed direction AGAIN, does anybody want this error 2014 10p for the fiver I gave for it? The images are shocking, I cannot photograph shiny coins at all, but it is BU (arguably, of course ). It was also photographed in a coin flip, which has a 'speckly' window (the whole batch of flips were like it...damned annoying). Anyway, leave it with you!

Your's for a fiver + post if you want it?

Maybe a piece of crud damaged the die?

There's a correlation between post numbers and the timescales for editing!

I've had two of these before, and seen another in hand, and they're not all thick. In fact the one I had in a W&W lot was 'hammered' thin. This is one of the lesser ones I've seen! Thanks for putting the images up TG! The seller mentioned nothing about it being a copy in the title, which is rather misleading TBH.

One of the better cast fakes out there! 121824795119

Saw this 351587618787 on eBay and thought 'hmmm, Edward II Farthing, Saxby must be getting himself a little help?' But looked at the obverse and thought, 'ah, maybe not!' Reassuringly Saxby's!

Testoon and Phillip&Mary shillings - fake or real?
Coinery replied to Doctor's topic in British Hammered
The rusty dies are a plus, though! -
Testoon and Phillip&Mary shillings - fake or real?
Coinery replied to Doctor's topic in British Hammered
Goodness, this one looks more suspect than the OP coin? Apart from the general 'look' of it, the pinholes on the reverse 4 o'clock lions and lettering, the poorly formed II of XII. I've only taken a cursory look at the image in Spink, but the OP jewels seem correct, when comparing to that crown cushion?I know you're now going to tell me your coin has provenance going back 200 years, and it's been in the hands of endless collectors... -
Testoon and Phillip&Mary shillings - fake or real?
Coinery replied to Doctor's topic in British Hammered
Nothing leaps out with the shilling, but I'm unfamiliar with the shield details on this series and would want to check that out if I was buying. Also, I'd definitely be checking it for weight and silver content if it was me. -

I don't feel happy about the testoon. Take a look at the lettering, FRA especially! Would love to get a close-up view inside that split, to determine whether it's a hammered split, rather than a cast one. -
All the best, John! Take it easy out there! ?

Ah, OK, that'll be post Laurie, then! -
Croydon Coin Auctions Latest - Are They Cleaning Happy?
Coinery replied to VickySilver's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I've been a couple of times! Let's just say at least one grade if you are distance buying! Can be some bargains if you are in the room, due to blind bidding being somewhat reduced. When did Laurie die? Just trying to establish whether my visits were pre or post his passing? -
All the best paulus.
Coinery replied to PWA 1967's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
All the best, pal! Take it steady out there, and enjoy the weekend! Birthday treat tomorrow methinks? ?? -
You and your's too, m'friend!

Nooo! And my sincere apologies again for my present distractions! Blessing!

I use Serif too, but the Serif PagePlus package, can highly recommend their software!

Why you should never attempt to grade hammered coins! Here's a "BOLD VF" from Baldwin's! http://www.baldwin.co.uk/coins/great-britain/hammered-british/richard-ii-penny-york-rare-in-vf.html?usrc=1

Nons "What crap has he bought this time?" Thread.....
Coinery replied to Nonmortuus's topic in Beginners area
Wow, good on ya, Stuntman! Never ever begrudged a man the trappings, even from the perspective of being skint! This is the one of the wonderful insights that pastimes like this brings, where people of all walks of life can meet at a common point! History and coins are a pretty good meeting place for Caymans and £1k Hyundais! Brilliant! Love coins! -
Hah, ha, yes, never getting anywhere fast, that's very much me! ? I always fancied an Alpha, but would probably go for a sporty Jag if I had the money! If! O' if! We're hammering a Hyundai Getz into the ground at the minute, so who am I to comment on prestige cars?
-
Oh, good, glad you were late to the party! Happy birthday from someone who was even later! Fashionably late, of course!
-
Yes, I can see that now, too! ? An inverted 6 corrected in error by an inverted 6! Love coins!

I'd say 9/9 too, Debbie!

Take it easy out there, Mr S. Time for a wee nip of something to help you sleep!
