all to do with the said governments wanting to keep historical items in their own country so if you want to free the article from its native home you need to pay the man. Depending on value and age.

you'll need a real close up pic of the date only. impossible to see anything from the pictures

I have actively searched for these coins seeing as the farthings had the Roman I for 1 and a few of our silver denoms had them. Well about 3 years ago I found 1 wasn't in too bad condition VF . Sold it and have looked for another since then. At last I have located a 2nd 1826 halfpenny with roman I for 1 . Fom memory it looks the same as in the style and boldness as the one I sold on. This one not in as good a condition but nevertheless it's a rare coin be interested to know if any of you guys hold one in your collections

I wanted a near mint version. Coins never stay long with me. I think I have said before I am a kind of go between finding the best homes for coins that would otherwise just rot in a tin somewhere. Of course a few extra quid never hurts . But I know all the coins I have moved on and some are members from here have ended up in the correct collections in my mind. My only trouble is letting them go lol which sounds daft. I still have a few irons in fires some unlisted oddities still to surface. I catalogue them then as I search and search they go in to that draw called safe keeping and probably never surface again. Until I remember where safe keeping is

I'll post this here seeing as my original thread got ganked by a business tout I only know of 1 other that is because I owned it. But sold it on a few years back. Been actively searching for another in a really nice grade but alas so far have not found any and this one is the only one I have found in the few years gap. Unlisted variety and should really be confirmed as I owned this and 1 other. Obviously quite rare 1826 Half Penny with Roman I for 1

I click anything. Got more protection than MI5 lol. I guess it would depend on the link title. Obv if onedrive is in the make up I would think it's safe but from a poster with no previous posts I would air on the side of caution and let some dumb sod like me click it

Although I cannot see any sig on bust I am sure it must be there pretty sure you have 2+D F10 Penny

exactly

<<<<<<< missed the boat as usual

I am thinking they meant to put NO W W. probably were gassing about what they were up to the weekend and buggered it up lol

defo struck on a foreign coin I just cant see it in my minds eye where to line anything up lol

Well I think its been struck on a straits settlement 5 cent FWIW that is part of the gothic crown and resembles nothing on our threepence

whats the gothic letter above her head to the right?

I have scoured the Net and everyone I have seen has the same

If it was O over sideways O logic would tell us the fat part would be where the thin line is surely?

N? how did they come to that conclusion lol?

I think that was a case of if you can see it you are a better judge than me picture lol ?

15956* 99% rating. Are we not safe anywhere now or is this a case of seller ignorance?

1870 Penny according to Mr Gouby date sub type D 12.5 teeth center of 1 to center of 0 (probably not seen) well now you have seen

That is so funny he doesn't even know what his label stands for. PCCB professional coin supplies and professional coin display None really convincing wonder if the B stands for BS

Damn did I miss Amanda . Oh well onwards and err onwards

good idea but they we get the grey area of "oh i selected the wrong box" . Hard to prove but very easy to exploit to a certain degree . Habitual misuse would raise red flags but damage is done by then but I guess we need to start somewhere
