It is a little bit dished in the middle, and the reverse doesn’t look quite right either. It’s almost like there wasn’t enough metal to fill the die.

Reverse:

Any thoughts on this 1927? I'm sure he's supposed to have an ear.

Ahhh, sorry Pete, I thought I'd posted the obverse of a penny and the reverse of the halfpenny also in the lot. Sorry, I'm a bit of a tit. And yes, some beer was involved, I'm on holiday tomorrow.

No, quite clear in the description! "IN ABOUT FINE CONDITION."

It's the cleaning as well as the overgrading: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1901-PENNY-BRITISH-COIN-FROM-VICTORIA-UNC/202734140157?hash=item2f33e57afd:g:iVUAAOSw-hVdLI9C They never used to be like this.

One thing I like about the DNW changes is that they are to have an actual cost calculator running as you bid. -
He's doing some serious trade.

Just as a point of order, I don't think you can decapitate a leg. -

20% Mike. Here's their statement. I don't see that it will make much difference to me as a buyer. I have a limited budget - I will either win what I want within that budget or someone with deeper pockets will want it more than me. Nothing changes. -
Think this is the F294 with small upper section to 3? Would appreciate confirmation if possible please.

Halfpenny ID please

Many thanks Rob. -
Good work.

F106?

If it's listed as a BIN and you're the first one to spot it... My F164a had been up for 3 weeks.

I haven't and wouldn't. His pictures are appalling. I once messaged him asking for better photos of a cartwheel 1d he wanted a ludicrous amount for. I wasn't really interested but all his pictures were weird and purple so I thought I'd ask. He responded by refusing further photos and telling me to trust him, it was a good one. He also withdrew and relisted the coin for an extra £100.

Plus the 1908. -
You're not wrong. I only looked that hard because it was obvious something had to be there.
-
With 1860 and 1861 you can't make much of an ID without seeing both sides though, so someone's had a good look in person I guess. The 1862 lot was a fortunate picture I think.
-
Cheers Mike. lot 980, 120 x 1861 pennies also went well at £900 hammer. Something good in there obviously, but the picture's a lot more crowded with twice the coins - I can't spot anything. If you go and view the lots, can you sit there for a couple of hours going through each coin one by one? What's the etiquette if there are other people wishing to view?
