Joint finest...... must have stopped it from being £1900

Bournemouth is a good show, If you want a really good one, RAF Cosford is the best IMO

Is the face on the shoulder of the Middlesex one intentional?

See the 3 and 9 look to me like they have been done post striking, but the 1 and the 6 look like they have been done before, just based on the fact that the 3 and ( have parts of the little circle in the number, but I could just be shadows on the coin.

Does anyone know anything about any coinage for the BAT? I know that a few BOT have their own coinage. but I haven't heard anything about BAT. There was a coin minted i believe in 2008 but not sure if this was a commemorative or actual coinage

bar the carbon spot next to the O i would say they are quite close. Indeed I'm quite happy with it

Better quality pictures busted out the old SLR

Bar the small carbon spot by the O in one

Yeh, they are phone pictures so not the best quality and don't compare to it in hand it was sold as BU but I would give it a UNC because its hasn't got as much lustre as a BU But I think I am just being picky, I can't fault it personaly Paid £10

Replaces my rather poor 1929 of course

Well here is my purchase, I don't know if there are any varieties in the 1929 if someone with better knowledge of this could enlighten me. What you you guys grade this and have a guess at what I paid.

See I do keep an eye out at the hammered stuff, but I have little to no idea about any of it. I can apreciate their beauty but when it comes to buying them, well.. Is there a book you would recommend that can introduce me into the topic?

They look quite bulky, but seem quite secure. Not sure if I like them or not
