    I can think of many adjectives that would be more representative for your collection of pennies. Nice ??Rash, that is modesty to excess !!!!!! Looking forward to seeing this collection! Don't forget to share when you're done Rash

    For me when I'm on the insert pictures screen, I hold ctrl and click on the 2 pictures and it lets me upload them both. Then I just add a few spaces between the two to separate them slightly. Let me know if it doesn't work..

    Rashenley, have a look at mine in my sig. Cannot recommend Wordpress enough it's simple and offers exactly what you need just to show off your collection. There was a good discussion on here recently about this however I can't find the thread for the life of me! It started within a thread about something completely different so it's hard to find. The good thing about Wordpress is it's widely used so there is a lot of information and help already out there. Good luck!

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    What was it? Probably find that ebay couldn't cope with dogging being the caravan section as opposed to the pets category. ...or do I not want to know..
  6. That's a spanker of a coin, Paulus! Great eye appeal

    And jeez, how much can you beat around a bush with a description?? There's so many slight/medium, Vf but EF, exceptionally for usually poor, due to this and would be should be's in there! Not to mention that they've capitalised every single word in the description which is just stupid.

  10. I enjoyed having a read on your website JL, but I can't help but comment that it's plagued with spelling errors which lets it down a bit Whack it through word's spell check, I'm sure it would clear up most of the spelling for you! Good that you've put on some advice though, it's always nice to see.

    Best use of the word 'Slight' I've ever seen
  12. Cor! Suits you sir.. Now that's what I call a bloody great design. Always jealous of your tokens brg, if they weren't all so expensive it would definitely be a collecting area for me! Maybe in the future..
  13. Does provenance trump verdigris or is it a case of rarity?
  14. Lucido sells a LOT of pennies, although I've never personally bought from him I have no doubt it's just a mistake. As Dave says just drop him a mail I'm sure he will clear things up
  15. Hi gents, Need some second opinions if possible please! I have this 1861 halfpenny which I think could be an F over P but just want a little clarification if anyone can help.. I've run a nib between the gaps in the bars of the F and I can feel a bump, but unfortunately these varieties are easier to spot when they wear flat. Any help is appreciated as always Nordle
  16. Bought one, although I found one that comes from the UK, just in case they try and put import duty on it when it gets here. I bought a portable screen for a Raspberry Pi about 2 months ago and because it was sent from outside the EU, Spanish customs took it in and I've had an absolute nightmare trying to get it sent to me. +1 cheers again Pete.
  17. Ah! It was a PM, cheers Pete. I remember you mentioning it but I was trying to find it in a thread..
  18. Tis a good point, but it's difficult to see by eye because the coin is bloody tiny haha.. In the pictures above it looks like there's an underlying P, that's why I want to check. A few people above believed that it was an F over P before we established it was on a die combination that is unknown for this error, and if it's a first then I'd rather be sure? That's why I don't want to spend a fortune just to check this one coin..
  19. Great idea but unfortunately I don't have anything to take a macro shot with I just came back from a visit to relatives as well, and they've got a great SLR with a macro lens, bugger!
  20. Finally have the coin back with me and want to get a microscope of some sort to check if this is an F over P or not, can anyone recommend something that will work nicely but wont break the bank? The loupe I have is sufficient for most things and this is the first I've needed a microscope (probably due to it being a halfpenny which isn't my normal collecting area) so I don't want to spend loads on something I'll not use that often..

    Yeah it's a bit more difficult in the built up places like London, and they're much hotter on drones there too. I know that there's that guy who was being prosecuted because he flew one over a London stadium while there was a footy match on, but don't know what came of it in the end..

    Triple Post! A quick search gives the same coin, EXACT same description, but for 40 quid.. Link

    I've never heard of "Convict love tokens" before, but this guy sounds like he's just trying to make a pretty penny. If it's rare as such, why the garble about how these coins often sell for much more or how it's such a 'great' investment.. Surely buyers of these types of things would know the value, especially if they're paying upwards of £800? Click Me

    It's always the way. 4K is amazing though, you'd think that the picture above is crisp enough but I don't think people will be satisfied until you can't tell the difference between a photo and actually looking at the real thing

    The Camera is fixed to a gimbal which clips underneath the drone. The DJI drones which have been around longer use gopros which do wobble slightly and have a curvuture in the shots, whereas the camera in the yuneec has a relatively straight Horizont line. I'm bringing it to Scotland with me next year in May and i'm thinking of renting a camper van next Year for a week or base myself in Kenmore. This is a picture i took of the Schloss That's an awesome picture Dave, very good camera on that drone.
