    Mrs Peter

    DRYING the washing is the tricky bit! Glad she's home, Sir! Have a great weekend the both of you! A little peck for Mrs Peter to help her mend...? maybe a little one for you too...?

    Weird fifty pence

    As a chemist you've probably got access to some very accurate scales, can you get the weight of both coins? As PWA mentioned, the one coin looks bigger, is that an optical illusion? Is the reverse you show the exact match for the reverse of your's?

    Weird fifty pence

    My guess would be it has been sat on a corrosive surface? I wouldn't say it is something of numismatic interest myself? Thanks for finding us, though, it's always interesting when anomalies turn up! Do wait for other views on here, as it's never as simple as it looks, and I'm using an iPhone on GPRS to view!

    Another problem, I guess, is whilst you want dialogue on certain posts, you don't want to open the floodgates to single posters, which might effectively swamp the numismatically interesting discussions. Hmmmmm!

    I suppose the perfect venue in that case would be an integrated FBpage and Forum, where both parties could communicate on the same platform! Does such a thing exist? Will a piece of software be developed that can communicate between the two? Auctiva somehow manages to interact with the eBay machine, so I guess it might be possible one day? The forum that does that first will be king!

    Proof sets 2000 - 2007

    There is an excellent series of publications called "Collectors Coins" by the publisher "Rotographic" that give the RM prices for the various sets. Sounds interesting! Have you thought of checking there, Chris? ?
  16. There are some great acid images somewhere on this forum for comparison. They all show the increased erosion upon the stressed metal around the devices, as is mentioned above.

    Concerned about sixpence

    And to add...very little margin at all at that end of the grade spectrum, maybe 2.75-2.8g?

    Concerned about sixpence

    Nothing about it that 'looks' wrong to me! I'd definitely recheck that weight on some proper scales, though.
  19. Yes, you get a much better sense of the tonal quality in the images taken with the E2 penny! I think it's come up really well!

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Given they can't even give a reign, where did they pluck that figure from! Hopeful? Gotta love eBay! 252028974667
