What format is your research in?

Not my area of expertise but I thought there was still a bit of interest in these - the Australian Coin Review magazine produced new ones last year I think so that has no doubt stirred up some interest. That said, I didn't know that the market was full of fakes so I'm not really sure what to look for. I understand they were die struck and pictures that I've seen show to have been of a reasonable quality.

½ Guilder - William IV
Mr T replied to Citizen H's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Nice find - these coins aren't too common, although they clearly saw some use as yours can attest. -
Could Web Archive be of use?

Yes they finally got this back on line. Still incomplete though so I'd keep my eyes on it. -
Do you remember which one of his papers?

Not sure about others but I just started with a blank spreadsheet and add a row for each coin I acquire. Not perfect (especially when trying to see where gaps are) but keeping track of what constitutes a complete set for some series is a challenge in itself.

Penny Acquisition of the week
Mr T replied to Paulus's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Excellent, will do secret santa. I'll look into that Rob though hopefully being in Australia won't an issue. Thanks all. -
Florins, Shillings and Misc .... on going sort out.

Might be worth getting a copy of Davies to identify some of the varieties. -
Minor GB Penny Queries 1899 narrow date 1880 higher 0 and 1889 Victoria's Nose
Mr T replied to The Bee's topic in Free for all
A little late to this (I had it noted to come back to) but well spotted - I am still amazed that after all this time, more varieties keep coming out of the wood-work. When obverse 2* was discovered a few years ago I was surprised and thought that surely had to be it. -

Is there a .pdf of the Bernard Workman Collection auction available by any chance? I found https://auctions.sovr.co.uk/index.php?option=com_timed_auction&auction_id=26 but wanted something more offline. -

Proof 1962 Half Crown Sold At Heritage - Very Rare!
Mr T replied to VickySilver's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I don't follow proofs much but yeah I didn't think the Royal Mint struck many proofs in that era - maybe they were too busy getting ready for the move to Llantrisant. -
Not sure about the 2002 1/10oz - I feel like all these modern mules tend to get surprisingly little coverage - maybe because they're made for collector coins rather than circulating?

I thought the early ones were 80% silver but possibly the later ones were devalued to 50%. They should all be silver I believe.
