clogs, die faults, et al.

Wow, that is a beaut, didn't even know of a clogged 2 on a 1932! Nice find Brian! Any chance you could send a microscope photo to me once you get it, so I can add it to the list? -
"I see no reason why we should adopt the word cent" Thanks for sharing, that was very interesting.

Penny Acquisition of the week

A lovely coin and at a good price too -
Legend, I've also got the 1985 and must've skimmed over that last part 2 or 3 times without noticing it. I was looking for the word milled as well, god knows why I missed it all those times. That's exactly what I was looking for, thanks Mike (and thanks for typing it out too )

Hazelman, pick the first (5279)

£70 inc. postage is an excellent deal, especially for a pre slabbed coin @ 78. Cant disagree with you there Pete, the value for all of the ones you're selling will definitely hold at these prices.

So the jury is out then.

Regarding lot 2466 - the milled edge penny, I thought I remembered reading in Freeman somewhere that any milled edge coins are post mint alterations, but after scanning the book I just can't find where I read that. Can anyone remember an excerpt to this effect, maybe it wasn't Freeman but I'm sure I read it somewhere.

Amazing picture Terry Over polished die?

You can also get the same sort of 'shelf' doubling from incorrectly hubbing a die, there's a handful of ways that it can happen and it's not uncommon to have the doubling on just a colon, but it would take some investigating to work out if it was that or like you say just the handy work of the engraver.

Let's See Your Copper Coins, Tokens, Or Medals!
Nordle11 replied to brg5658's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I love all these tokens, especially the provincial conders. So much to investigate and learn from a single design, you can really delve into the history behind them which is more interesting than just getting another year with the same design. BRG has helped me out a lot with information, although I'm yet to get my first one. I want to start with a nice one with a bit of lustre but they're so damn expensive! What did that set you back Paul? You've got a couple now right? -

I remember reading a couple of years back when Ian Murrey got a briefcase stolen out of his car with quite a bit of stock in it. That was a smash and grab type job. Security would be better at these things, or at least more visible security.

Not any known ones, and a few of us have been keeping an eye out the last couple of months at least. It's possible, but innocent until proven guilty I say..

This is certainly what I'm banking on, at least I hope most of you veterans will be preoccupied by the bun pennies while I can focus on the 20th century coins! Some nice errors too which are right up my street, I'm a little gutted about the true reverse on the brockage though it's one I would have liked had it been in a better nick.

Penny Acquisition of the week
Nordle11 replied to Paulus's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
Considering over 100 million were struck, I found this one of the harder dates to find in top grade/with a good strike. I think this would be my 3rd upgrade, but definitely getting there. Very happy. -
Correct, bigger every 3 months and March is the first big one of the year. You'll enjoy it, it's a great fair with many friendly people and you'll meet a few of the members on here at that fair too. Have fun in Rome also!

Nice Pete, cheers
