    Help in a cold spell

    My cat has just been trained to be wary of outdoors - she knows its there but just knows it pleases me that she does'nt go there. Shes never been a stray so could not feed herself to save her life , I know she would be a great mouser but because none get in the house theres none for her to kill. A cat will always act differently if it has has been semi wild it has a different perspective on life. My cat goes in the back garden , but knows its a treat and as its well fenced off I am pretty sure she will not jump the fence and run away , she gets watched anyway .

    My cat has been kept away from birds all her life , while I am sure she really misses going out when she wants , I also feel good knowing she never kills birds , also shes not going to get run over.

    "Not taking on any paid business" Would anyone pay for such poor descriptions and rubbish service? Doubt it There again the could always avertise that they are the gradeing service that takes forgeries , cleaned and holed coins - that could be their little speciality

    Edward iv

    I always thought slabbing was about providing a grade to identify a coins value (Am I wrong)? After all they have already missidentified it so the least they could do was grade it . They seem incapable of even giving the mint mark (They did get the value right at 1 shilling) From memory tun was used from 1551-53 if my memory serves me right

    I thought any decent slabing company would reject holed or cleaned coins . Is the slabbing company run by a gang of fraudsters?

    Edward iv

    As far as I know a touch piece was a gold angel - a king would be unlikely to use silver - its a curency shilling anyway. I seriously doubt its original as well it just looks "wrong" could just have been badly cleaned - but its in a plastic "Tomb" so you would have to take it out . I remember seeing a holed example on a maket stall in leek staffs , it was in GVF far superior to your and the vender only wanted a hundred for it , I was broke at the time so I passed on it but it was well worth a hundred. I hope you never paid much for it ..........Mint mark is a Tun Stress fracture points to it being genuine though

    Steep slabbing premiums

    my cat just hates being dressed up
  17. I remember years ago I had a friend who ran a sports shop near bury they were doing well and took on a new member of staff who had just finished school and did not know sport to much but at least she was willing . Anyway she was in here second week and a guy came upstairs and as she was the only member of staff available he came and asked her" have you got any cricket boxes?" This really confused the poor girl and she suddenly blurted out "Cricket box , do you keep your balls in it ?" Apparently the guy just went red and walked out
