    JUST STARTED COLLECTING COINS
    READING
    FILMS
  1. I'm a newbie collector, so still trying to decide where to specialise. Doesn't help with the BOSS (wife) collecting with me, she goes for one's she like the look of. So far collection ranges from Roman through to the Silver 50p Proof. Personally I prefer Hammered (Post Roman) and early milled. Have had some luck so far and managed to pick up some bargains along the way. Picture of the 1845 5/3 posted but I haven't worked out how to get the detail, it doesn't show where you can see the remnants of the 3 under the 5, and I only paid less than the value of and straight 1845 HC
  2. Ok, so, basically Proof is Proof, so no curve balls in there...............Spelling.................weekly stuck? Weakly struck............strat, should read start?. Sorry, just making srue People who live in iPhones shouldn't throw scones Particularly those from Snotland when discussing 50p poofs Thanks for the help, even though it seems i cna't tpye verrey well :-)) Was hoping it would go with the 1845 5/3 Half crown I picked up recently.
  3. Hell All, New to numismatism and having to learn as I go. I'm getting the hang of grading, I think, but every now and then I get thrown a weird one. I have a 1992-1993 Silver proof 50 p with certificate of authenticity. The coins appears to have been weekly stuck and the lettering at the strat of Elizabeth is not fully formed (see Pic) Is this common on silver proofs. I kow on most coins mistakes increase value. Any help appreciated
