I've absolutely no idea Pete. -

Not in Birmingham either, apparently. -
Judging by the plugged holes that were posted on here somewhere, I'd say yes. You'd always know but it would be a lot easier to live with. The problem comes when it's subsequently sold on...

No, it was one of those times the quote box wouldn't disappear but I managed a successful edit. You must have been quick.

Good luck!

Nah, I'll let Mike have whichever one he wants, and that's nothing to do with me not being able to afford either.

Bar top ideas?

You can keep your grilled Bear. I'll have a Les Hiddins please. -
Both of those now.

We'll all be hammered Pete, it's a party. -

Where's the dartboard going? -
Need some help - overcharged by PCGS...absolute nightmare.

Worth having a word with your bank? I'd class that as an unauthorised transaction. -

Don't forget, if you use bottle tops most of them will have a kink in them from being levered off the bottle. -

I like that but as you say, 5 years is a bit lightweight. -
Two versions of the £2 Abolition of the Slave Trade coin?

Fair point. -

I wish I could get a job in journalism. I can make stuff up just as well as the next bloke. Probably better, actually. -

It's a mint error Pete, if it's the wrong shape. Hang on to it, whatever you do. -
All received now. Thanks very much.

I know this is a long shot, but I'm looking for a copy of Sealby’s Coin and Medal Bulletin, June 1964. I would also like The Numismatic Circular, April 1950. If anyone has these, or knows where I might get them, please let me know. Ta very much. MBE

Ah yes, of course. I think the document I was looking at was auto-transcribed from a scan - I did correct it from this: Sammut J. "Lascaris and His Countermarked Copper 4 and 2 Tari Pieces." Sealby’s Coin anal Medal Bulletin, June 1964, pp. 205-207.

Well the second wouldn't hurt, for a bit of further information, although I do have what I need. Couldn't be sure which article would be most helpful. Thanks though Rob.
-
Well, if it's not a very discerning jay, perhaps.
-
Many thanks kildonan for the scan of the first article. It's given me what I needed to identify the countermarks on this 2 tari, so no real need for the other article I don't think.
-
I'm not convinced they will. As Pete says, it's only the AA01 part that's of interest, and so many of these have been put away in mint condition that in 100 years' time supply will probably still outstrip demand. You'd probably get more for an AA02.

Not British but a nice lamination flaw on this Swedish 2 öre:
