Free Oasis Concert tonight
copper123 replied to Rob's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
The manchester evening news pointed to residents and tried to point to them running blindly into a living hell provided by oasis fans ie weeing in front gardens and using front gardens as an open sewer. I might have known reality was a lot better , I have always found prestwich and the nearby whitefield where i lived for many years quiet and happy places , my grandparents also loved prestwich after living on carisbrooke avenue for over 30 years .Nice to know this was all paper talk -

Anyone take a sh!t on your front lawn going home ? -
Ironically many of the smaller coins ie groat down are much nice coins to own from the tudor and stuart periods

Just shows what ugly things most hammered coins are really sigh

Look rather crude to me there are various contemp copies out there , they are very common. As they were not worth much they were often just thrown away , loads ended up in the thames as well pretty sure its a richmond issue
-
the trouble with 1971 is that around 17 million of the blue wallets were sold so the will not ever be rare

surely the post would be treble what the coins are worth , and by the way they are cents

Low estimates prob please sellers they can be pointed too as proof how good the auctioneer is

1797 pennies seem to have many countermarks -

Most coins at this time circulated at their melt value along with any remaining copper/ bronze left over from when the romans left . They probably circulated till melted down for other uses about the year 700 or so or untill decent quality silver pennies appeared

1875H Penny. Anyone have any thoughts?
copper123 replied to dmw2602's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
The patchy tone is deff not a plus could wipe £50 off the price easy -
well I had been after a really nice one for ages and it came up on the bay for a half reasonable price so i treated myself The two rarest coins in the copper / bronze victorian period are in my opinion 1851 d over sideways d and 1862 fat 8 this ties with freeman 530 as well for rarity. I have a fat 8 but it only grades good fine
-
Heres my 1852 farthing it's that nice i suspect it will never be upgraded
-
1849 is a tough year esp in nice grade there again so are 1844, 1851 ,1852 and 1859 funny enough even though the last only circulated for 9 years.

Which rulers of England did not have coins issued during their reign ?
