I have Krause for 17th century too - it is not really much good for British coins this early. (Much as I am sure you would not use Krause for US...
Having a bad day so I thought I would post my Saxon Penny collection, as far as I have built it, to help me feel better. I hope you like them and...
I'm sure you would! :-) Sadly this one is not for sale. They are extraordinarily difficult to come by, though a Metal detectorist friend picked up...
OK - I'll play! Here are some Tudor ones from my collection: Edward VI Shilling S2482 with "y" mintmark - 1551 Philip and Mary Sixpence S2505...
Wow - brilliant! It was just a throw in with the rest so very pleasing. I have had a check on Ebay since I posted and come up with a similar sort...
I don't usually get involved in error coins, or indeed non-British ones, so hopefully you all can help me with this one. I picked it up today...
Could well be! I still can't work out what it is about though. If it is countermarking, it was done a long time ago. To make a counter-mark so...
That's brilliant - thanks! Good news: They want USD 250 for it and that is with one coin missing. :-) Bad news - nobody has bid - not even...
Yes - I like it but I am finding it difficult to get more info on it. I have tried searching on "Victoria Medal Box" and "Victoria Medal Pill box"...
... and this also picked up today for you counter-stamped fans. The base coin is a William III farthing from between 1695 and 1701. What the...
OK - here is some suitably exotic paranumismatica for you! Picked up this today at a market - pill box containing 4 medallions in aluminium (which...
Yes - very nice coin! Being British this line is my main collecting aim. I originally set myself the goal of one hammered coin for each monarch...
Nice one! Exactly makes my point about the re-ruse of old silver coins in India. Also note these are type 2 Rupees - the legend over the head is...
Difficult to say! The person I bought it from had used a similar old copy of Krause to price it. On E**y it is difficult to get a clear steer -...
Yes - this shows you just how out of date the 2002 Krause figures are! Not only do they take no account of the Silver content, there has also been...
One Rupee from British India 1840. (b) type 1 [ATTACH]
Picked up these two today. British Indian Rupee 1840. (b) KM#457.3 type 1 French Ecu 1781 k - Bordeaux mint [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Neither of them...
I was surprised no one picked me up on this group! The 1860 penny, which looks very nice at first glance, is an example of exactly what I was...
Just for something to do, and hopefully keep you all entertained! [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] 1875 Gothic Florin 1893 Half Crown 1845...
I have sent many coins to the US from the UK. On one occasion the Royal Mail decided to put the package on a ship instead of by air, and then the...
