    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    My tribute to marleybob We're scammin': I wanna scam it wid you. We're scammin', scammin', And I hope you like scammin', too. Ain't no rules, ain't no vow, we can do it anyhow: I'n'I will see you through, 'Cos everyday we pay the price with a little sacrifice, Scammin' till the jam is through. We're scammin' - To think that jammin' was a thing of the past; We're scammin', And I hope this jam is gonna last. No bullet can stop us now, we neither beg nor we won't bow; Neither can be bought nor sold. Repeat first verse ..........

    Coin cabinet

    To be honest a lot of cabinets are bought secondhand - here the main problem is what size trays are in it and do they fit the coins in your collection. You often have to wait years to find a suitable one ......

    Coin cabinet

    I imagine the production of a few hundred coin cabinets will mean nothing in co2 terms when compared to the waste produced by the hundreds of minor wars rageing over the world
  7. Think you would get around £140 for the 1856 and £40 for the 1843 only aprox values of course - I really love the 1856
  8. I would describe the 1856 PT as rare and the 1843 as scarce there is also the OT 1856 which makes most penny collectors want 2 coins of this year - the 1843 is of similar rarity but as there are not two varieties most think its more common . Both coins are, while not in the best of grade , collectable.
  9. Face coverings have been made mandatory for everyone working in the House of Commons except MPs. In updated guidance, the Commons authorities said all staff, visitors, contractors and press must cover their faces to combat the spread of Covid. But it remains up to individual MPs to decide whether to follow suit - and many Conservatives have chosen not to. Sajid Javid has said he will wear a mask for Wednesday's Budget when the chamber will be packed. But the health secretary said on Monday it was a "personal decision" for ministers and backbenchers as to whether they did too. Arrogant b**ards
  10. Push the almonds, oats, peas, coconuts (the list goes on) and rice to the side... baristas may soon be whipping up lattes with a new alternative "milk" from potatoes. Milk from the humble spud is set to be one of 2022's biggest food trends, according to supermarket Waitrose's annual Food and Drink report. Researchers have predicted that the market for dairy alternatives could almost double over the next five years, as increased dairy allergies and concerns about its environmental impact push shoppers to look for plant-based options. Shoppers spent a total of £394m on plant-based milk in Britain in 2020, up 32% from 2019, according to market research firm Mintel. UK public now eating significantly less meat I wonder it their teats might be hard to find LOL

    The bronze in your pocket 2021 pocket change

    The copper price continued to rally towards record highs on Tuesday as signs of extremely tight supply outweighed concerns that slowing growth in China will impact demand. Traders were paying huge premiums for quickly deliverable copper after stockpiles in the London Metal Exchange’s (LME) warehouse system tumbled to their lowest level in decades. Sign Up for the Copper Digest Copper for delivery in December rose on the Comex market in New York, touching $4.8055 per pound ($10,572 per tonne), a record high. CASH copper on the London Metal Exchange also soared to a new record high overnight. Spot copper jumped 7.2% to $11,299.50 per tonne. Prices of the metal used in power and construction leaped 10% last week and are up and more than 30% this year after gaining 26% in 2020.
