    Unknown coin

    I'm not the best person to send it to really I don't have any experience in in this field, but others won't be able to help without pictures. Get the picture up on your computer screen then take a screenshot and crop that in paint or something, that should reduce the size massively so you can post it here. Or try this thread

    God yes, it took me a good year or so searching for a nice 1906, and there is still plenty of room for an upgrade if one comes along. I definitely found that year the hardest of the whole series. Thanks Loose, it really does look like it just came straight out of the mint yesterday! Well worth the wait

    Unknown coin

    You need to put up some pictures, unless you literally have that exact coin, otherwise anyone else's guess is as good as yours.

    More Pennies

    Thanks Richard, they are certainly the hardest to get in a nice grade, so many are plagued by weak strikes or ghosting, they really lost control of the quality after the Victorian veiled head pennies.

    It certainly pays dividends! I also received this today, after initially being sent to the wrong person, returned by them, then held in customs for over 2 weeks when it was finally resent my way. Worth the wait, the seller says that his dad got it from the bank the same year of issue and wrapped it in cloth where it sat until it was listed on ebay.

    UNC 1906 penny

    Best of luck hazelman, a difficult one from the Eddy series, especially one with a nice reverse strike. I'll certainly keep an eye out for you day to day.

    A 1922 penny with a dot on the trident, missed by the seller, so it only cost me a tenner. My phone isn't great with close ups so apologies in advance.

    Have we lost all of the people we had in our friend list too? It looks like you now have to follow people

    1851 Penny

    The legend on the obverse also seems to be double struck, especially on the DEI
  11. Merry Christmas to one and all! Now, time for a fry up

    It's an extra job but if all else fails you can always setup a rule in your email account to forward all emails from the site to a specific folder, and not show every email in your inbox. I imagine that things will be changed/ironed out as the feedback rolls in.

    That's a good point actually, some of them are greyed out and you can't change them which is a little annoying.

    Room 101

    As a lover of grammar, I couldn't agree more. It especially pains me to see younger people who've just giving up altogether and resort to things like 'L8' for late or just completely dropping vowels from words If I remember correctly, the millionth(?) word added to dictionary was web2.0. Thats when I truly gave up hope.

    Go to your account settings Rob you can turn off the notifications by email, it's just defaulted to that but you can change it to suit your needs. The added functionality that came with the update by far outweighs the problem with the white space, but I do agree there is a big chunk of unused screen. Maybe this is where adverts are going.

    Eek. What's happened?

    Haha nice edit glad it worked.

    Hard to test as I've read most of the posts in the last 15 minutes but have you tried looking at 'Unread Content' as I think it shows the threads and not every post. You're currently looking at 'All Activity'. If not, go to 'Unread Content' then 'Edit This Stream' and choose 'Topics' in the 'Content Types', I think that'll give you what you need Richard.

    P.s - someone has liked one of my posts since the change but it doesn't say who it just says 'someone has liked a post you made' and that's it

    Bored at home so did a bit of UAT; In ‘online Users’ > ‘Filter By’ = There are 2 ‘Members’, one with a period and one without As 1949 says, there is no ‘Members’ section (the above only filters online members) As above, when I click on a thread with a new post it doesn't take me to what I haven't read but to the original post itself, then I have to find the last post. Doesn’t happen every time but does happen on both laptop and iphone. When searching a second time within the flood control limit, you don’t get the usual message of why but you get a screen that reads “Sorry there is a problem” then a time limit, then “Error code: 1C205/3”. It isn’t possible to search anything less than 3 characters, I find myself doing this a lot for things like ‘Penny KN’ or ‘Gouby X’, you just get threads relating to pennies and Gouby. It is probably part of the problem you are already aware of, but I cannot change my signature. As above, you cannot preview your posts before submitting. All my old notifications have disappeared, not too important though. But I did search through them sometimes to find content. Is the store button supposed to take you back to Predecimal main page, because it just shows a blank page at the moment? The message box interferes with my iPhone's diction, for instance I cannot put a period by double tapping space and it doesn't auto capitalize the first word of a new paragraph anymore Questions What is an ‘Expert Member’ which is a filter on the ‘Online Users’ section? Do you automatically follow any thread you post in? Because pretty much every thread is in ‘Content I Follow’? Is there any chance of lowering the flood control time limit for searches? It makes it very difficult to do anything quickly, but I appreciate it is there for a reason. In the advanced search area, you can filter by number of ‘Comments’, ‘Reviews’ and ‘Views, what are the reviews? Comments/New things The new activity streams are really good, lots of ways to filter and you can also see threads that you have started. Before on the ‘Calendar’ you could see whose birthday it was, but now it shows ‘1 birthday’ and you have to go into the date to find out who. Minor inconvenience J I’m scared of the ‘Mark Site Read’ button being so close to the ‘Unread Content’ button. I’ve already accidentally clicked it once L ‘Reason for editing’ is a nice little feature. You can have group messages now as oppose to one message per person, excellent! You can also add folders in your personal messages in order to group them by what you want, that’s very handy. You can hover over a thread title and it will show the original post, and also the last post. I hope that helps, overall I'm really enjoying playing around on all the new features, great update

    FYI - On my phone when I click on a thread with a new post it doesn't take me to what I haven't read but to the original post itself, then i have to find the last post.

    How important is a serif

    Serifs won't break off but it is probably a result of die fill, crud gets inside that part of the die and then becomes flush with the die itself, rendering what you have there. As a variety, it could be one and some do command a premium, but the copper boys will be better suited to comment on that. Nice little error though
