    Identifying cleaned coins

    Only buying copper/bronze a lot have an almost pink colour due to spending to long in something acidic such as vinegar. The small scratches is a giveaway along with the fields being different to the devices such as lettering etc.

    More Pennies

    Surely someone must know. Coins listed in auctions by Spink , dnw , lca, baldwins and the workman sale all give provenance as ex-Peake. Pete.

    Your business but i have bought from you Rob and my contact was this site. You are an honest dealer who people trust and if you just were to rely on repeat business as you know it will start to fade. You mentioned putting together a new site and would feel its worth contacting Chris with regards getting more traffic. With regards being insular i have never had a job working for someone else hard work and being nice with people seems to have worked quite well. I dont have any qualifications and dont know much about coins, but feel i am pretty good at making a few quid.

    Would you pay to be able to have your link available Rob was all i was asking. If you or anyone else who was selling coins paid chris an amount surely that is just fair and makes everyone happy. You mentioned you have sold a couple through the forum as i am sure numerous other people have. If you were to PAY an amount per year thats not piggyback thats just good for the site and yourself.

    None of my business as dont sell coins. However think Chris should charge dealers a one off fee for putting a link to there site rather than not allowing it ?. If someone wishes to use the site to sell a coin regardless of value the site should get something.

    Think Chris should allow sales and the seller give a gesture as a thank you ?.

    Looking at coins brought up on here i feel if the seller sets a realistic price it will sell to a member as i have bought a couple. Sometimes i think people get greedy and have an unrealistic amount they want and then the coin wont sell no matter how it gets dressed up. I think forum members would see through that as probably more knowledge than the average ebay buyer of coins. In the case of numerous pennies, they have gone to a forum member and the seller incurred costs on ebay. Lots of LURKERS on the site and feel the seller has nothing to lose if the coin is a realistic price and clean it will sell.
  22. Shame that someone is paying for something that is garbage.
  23. Good find Brian. I bought one the other week and paid about £40 although had some lustre and was a decent coin. Was in the james workman sale but went unsold . Well spotted .
