1905 penny 3rd type
secret santa replied to terrysoldpennies's topic in Confirmed unlisted Varieties.
Sorry to resurrect this old topic, but I decided to add the 1905 small zero penny to my rarest penny site (I'm not even sure that it's scarce/rare) so I searched back in the Forum archives for Terry's postings on the subject. I can't remember whether I forwarded the scans of the Edward VII penny variants from Coin Monthly May 1977 that Pete kindly sent me 8 years ago ! If anyone would like a copy, please let me know.

Minor GB Penny Queries - Etched 1860 ?, Lower 90 in 1890
secret santa replied to The Bee's topic in Free for all
Just a nasty gouge, I think. But more interesting is the smaller 8 between the 8 and 9 ! -

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL.

Merry Christmas, and many thanks to everyone who has supplied pictures for my websites. Richard -
Interesting, I'll add this to my varieties site, Ian, though it would be very easy not to notice this at first and second glance !

So it is - how did you spot that ???

What's that ????
-
There was a very nice F1 penny described as F6 which I though might go for a bargain price but it was spotted and bid up to over £1400.

London Coins lot 1562 Dec 1st 2024
secret santa replied to Coinery's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
You can tell from the screenshot that you posted - whenever a lot is not shown with a hammer price, it has not sold. Actually I find their website quite friendly compared with some, e.g. Spink whose archive facility is criminally bad. -
Plus ça change.....
secret santa replied to blakeyboy's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
Love those Quatermass films - my mum and dad wouldn't let me watch it when it was televised on BBC in black and white back in the day. -
I've bought several like this hoping it was a number - perhaps even the fabled number 1 - but it never is !

Did I miss something?
secret santa replied to SilverAge3's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Yes, But I forgot to record what price it fetched. -
I'm just praying that Atlas will be bidding when I sell my collection !
-
The majority of the most expensive coins in last week's Workman sale of pennies went to a single bidder - it will be interesting to see whether they turn up on Atlas' site.

secret santa replied to SilverAge3's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I'm not sure; I've called it a pattern but I've not seen it in hand so it might be a proof but it's probably unique being struck with reverse Freeman K which has the non-heraldically coloured shield.
