  1. Looks a yummy coin to me and i would love to own it . Only thing wrong is they are very rare in that date/grade 1886 might be a bit easyer. Tarnishing looks about right for a coin of that age .
  2. Was cumming caught giving an away service then .......LOL
  3. And if it looks bad to you , I am sure you would not have to travel far to find another person who considers it awful
  4. THat pigs for the chop
  5. They should invent a term for that in numismatics. I would surgest "Cleaned at one time by some stupid bastard , now retoning but still mingin'."
  6. The telletubbies might have a new recruit on that photo . What happened to the watch your weight lecture after he caught covid. There again who am I to talk lol . That picture above is wrong anywhere where is the £2000 a roll wallpaper?

    The leather case was obviously the one to buy . Cardboard for the plebs , hey wait 75p each , I will have four , darn they are sold out.......
  8. Ah a bit more like some of the terms that entered numismatics years ago like "Edgy" which might mean light damage ie edge knocks on a coin , that is certainly more used than many .
  9. "wiped I consider a meaningless or even pointless term , why say it ?
  10. With nazis in it? We have ways of making you laugh.............
  11. I note that the 1845 large date farthing never sold - maybe £500- £700 was like I thought a very optimistic price esp with those heavy fees as well
  12. I hardly think anyone even remembers this film . Mel brooks is the one for making us laugh at nazis in film it can be a sore subject.........
  13. Yes the 1841 halfpennies have been a drag on the market for a few years now , there are less halfpenny collectors than farthing collectors but there again the farthings would have soon disappeared into nice collections because many collectors were putting up with substandard pieces I was lucky enough to buy a GEF 1834 the rare peck variety a few years ago for a song - it remains my best William farthing . Its a pity a few pennies were not included in the hoard they would have been highly sort after. I always thought victorian india had its own coins strange to find some GB issue

    I think you might find that would work , depends how fast they are and according to "Alice in wonderland" they are pretty slow , in fact usually asleep
  17. William IV farthings in the absolute top grades are really well sort after , most fetch over £100 there does seem to be a lot of them around but most are in good fine or less , with a few nicer ones in GVF and lower. The smallest bit of wear on Williams bonce loses the coin a lot of value. High grade examples tend to just stay for ever in good collections or be sold by the london auction houses . Ebay is pretty useless for high grade William farthings as well , you have to wade through piles and piles of rubbish to find anything decent
