OK, this could've been a challenge with some of the punctuation missing. However, with it being of poor style, titled BRIT, having a likely colon after ET, and 10 jewels in the crown (both), I'd say we are looking at a counterfeit. The mark looks tun/woolpack-like to me, meaning you have a Richmond Type 2 counterfeit of Everson C71

OK, cheers, gents! Canal it is, then!

Looks like it Christmas 2015 on the boat, then?

It's just that, as Peter suggests, you're much better off buying the full set than the 1d or 6d individually! Clearly, lots of eBay buyers don't realise this!It's likely why the 6d does well? We don't all chuck EII farthings in our Christmas puds and keep the best ones for ourselves, you know! Personally, I have so many Edward II farthings that I simply don't know what to do with them! You could always come to Christmas at ours? We'll do dinner, you bring the Christmas pud!

A little silk bag at 0.00002p from China, a polished 6d, and bob's your uncle...give me a fiver please!

Lucky sixpences in immaculate condition? Would you give anything less as a wedding gift or for a Christmas pud treat?
-
Yes, exactly as TG has said, definitely something to pass on!

German comedy & cabaret
Coinery replied to ChKy's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
Well, that's just messed up my 'fair usage' on my WiFi! It'll take a couple more hundred years, yet, I reckon? I do feel terribly sad to think that the German kids are still carrying the weight of it all today! Peace and good will for 2015! -

When you're ready? I've got my seat! -
Don't think much of the prints all over the first one, but what lovely pennies otherwise.

I do so wish Steve wasn't so busy at the moment, he'd love all this!

I prefer the term 'die-collectors' rather than variety collectors, as this seems more of a catch-all to me? Most in-depth studies ultimately head back towards the dies, and occasionally their progressive stages, or perhaps a deteriorating punch? I think this is the best part about it, it's what separates numismatics from whimsies!

I hope so! Anybody know defintively? I looked on their website and couldn't find much detail about the products. I'm guessing that they are so popular that its taken for granted that they are OK. There are so many things we take for granted, I guess, and, in all honesty, we take far greater things for granted than coin storage...where do we start, would we have the time?I truly hope that 'fit-for-purpose' Mylar coin flips are something that they claim to be? I'm going to be SO pissed off if, in twenty years time, we find out that the adhesive leaches into the card and dies the rims of the coins red, or something? I've lovingly decontaminated my coins before sealing them...if I don't outdo the tomb-boys I'll be gutted!

A teenager kidding his mates down the pub that he's found a rare coin!

Personally i like her You won't get any juice knocked off by liking her?

Just send her a link to this thread! She knows how big a forum this is, and how many of her customers are members of it!

If it's about short-term protection, I'd get hold of some acid-free coin envelopes and put your coins into those until you have time to process them properly. Store them in a dry environment, of course!

I did spot Tim Everson's book on eBay for a fiver this evening, if anyone's interested? James I and Charles I hammered copper farthings, anyone?
-
Wow, you're the man, PRAX Holmes, very enlightening read...great book-keeping too!
-
Generally the most expensive of the hammered variants! Certainly so with Elizabeth I and the hammered copper farthings of J1 and C1. The same can be said of the Scottish coins!

Maltravers Farthing MM Woolpack E130g*
Coinery replied to Michael-Roo's topic in Confirmed unlisted Varieties.
Great stuff, MR, and thank-you to Tim Everson for his time on this! His book 'The Farthing Tokens of James I & Charles I' will make hammered farthing collectors of us all, I'm sure https://www.galata.co.uk/store.asp?storeAction=showDetail&stockID=1136 -
New Found UNLISTED Jamaica Proof Set
Coinery replied to VickySilver's topic in Enquiries about Non British coins
Not my area, but welcome to the forum, JCC! -
Hold it, hold it! Are we saying here that CGS will not slab a hammered coin with scratches?
-
I wonder what the larger businesses do? It does seem to shut down trade for all but the cheapest items?
