Greetings. Post a few pictures of the unidentified ones and you'll probably get some answers.

Delusional is the first word that springs to mind. -
1826 penny token?
mrbadexample replied to Pavel's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
That's unusual. -
Doesn't appeal to me. I don't even consider it to be a sixpence - it's just a made up round shiny thing designed to relieve you of your dough.
-
No mate, no. It's low tide, innit? Says so on the listing.
-
I wouldn't mind so much if they were, in any way, nice.

Get yerself a bit of quality: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VERY-RARE-LOW-TIDE-HALF-PENNY-OF-1902-EDWARD-II-/253212495962?hash=item3af4a4105a:g:b7kAAOSwDmBY4ktS

Hard to have much sympathy, isn't it?
-
Call yourself a collector, eh? Someone's going to be upset with that one.
-
Looks normal to me. A nice one though.
-
Ahh, of course. Silly me.
-
Yes, true enough I guess. Incidentally, do we know anything about the metal composition of the Chinese fake wreath crowns, for example? Are they using silver?
-
It's not entirely conclusive, of course: it shows there is some silver, but not how much.

Help for the digitally challenged please
mrbadexample replied to Rob's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
'tis only a guess Rob but hopefully it's nothing more sinister than that. -
They don't sell though. Looking at the sold listings most "error" £1s go for a couple of quid + postage. This one made me laugh though. You can hardly see the join.

This is a complete guess: A Facebook user posts a picture of a coin. Q: "That's nice, where did you get it?" A: "RP Coins" https://www.rpcoins.co.uk/pages/coins This would generate a little preview of your website with the link. If someone clicked the link, could that be a Facebook referral? -
Thanks Rob.

Morning all. Please bear with me because I've no business being on the hammered section of the forum. I've seen this Charles I shilling on a Faceache group. I believe the legend should read "CHRISTO" but the I is missing. Can someone tell me more about this coin please? Thanks, Jon

Sweden again - 4 daler 1734, PM#74. 3122g.

I'd like to know too. I suspect something more advanced than Paint is required.
-
Nor me.

1856 rigsbankskilling currently being advertised by LCA for their December auction, with a suggested valuation of $700. If it were a Copenhagen mint mark (crown) then this might be the case. However, this has the Altona mint mark (orb), and is worth comfortably less than $50 IMO. I paid £1.57 for mine. It'll be interesting to see if this is corrected prior to the auction, and what it actually sells for.
