    ebay photos

    Yes, I'd noticed but it wasn't really and issue. Having to steal the girlfriend's ipad is though...

    ebay photos

    The thing is Jerry, I can't. I'm on a PC, and not all sellers have the zoom function enabled, so that's all I can see. Clicking on the picture doesn't open it up. I don't know if it's the same on a tablet or phone? Edit: I can see the picture if I use the ipad...

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Looks ok (albeit cleaned) to me. Polish poltorak (3 polker). Cheap as chips and plenty around.

    1913 penny - Freeman 175 & 176

    Even so Richard, that one's a bit of a horror. I'm convinced that this is another.

    When was the sale Mike? Some of those prices were incredible - £500 for the F164a that looks fire damaged or something? Someone must have really wanted that one.

    Who graded the Crocker F175 as Fine then?

    Can you still see the Crocker sale? Can't find it on Colin Cooke's site.
  9. Only the second one I've seen where the top of the ear is still intact (the other being the far superior one Terry found), although no doubt there are plenty I haven't seen. Chuffed to bits, and the seller included a free halfpenny too.

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Mine's 28.4g. I can't tell what's off with the ebay one either. I guess people are bidding to resell as genuine.

    I can't believe I've had it in hand and didn't notice until I took a photo of it. I've probably looked at every ebay picture you have...and I've got to start again now!

    You're not wrong. And I need my eyes tested, mine's a F174.

    Court's survey suggests that they should account for about 1.4% of the population, but finding them even in low grade is surprisingly hard.

    I've been looking for a while now Mike, and have only found one washer so far:

    I didn't even know that one existed.

    Click this bit. It's very far from obvious.

    That's me out then. Pete says I should concentrate on better quality, not rang.

    Peter Nichols cabinets

    You must be chuffed with that Mike, it looks beautiful.

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Generous of you Mike, but I'd say he knows exactly what he's doing.

    Aquatic swimmer with Lines

    Neither is a genuine first issue. Fewer lines across the body is a giveaway.

    Revenge of Peter Rabbit

    Being Mr Tod the Fox, Samuel Whiskers and Tommy Brock. If you care.
