Coin of the day
Pierre_Henri replied to GROOVIE COINS's topic in Coins and Notes (for the Numismatist)
I obviously believe you, but it is beyond me why anyone would go through the trouble of faking a coin that is worth only R5 - how much would it cost one to reproduce a coin like that? I know that the British One Pound Coin has been faked many times, so if the faker could find a way to reproduce them for less than the value of the actual coin, it could be worth there while ... one never knows. https://www.thesun.co.uk/money/2796478/spot-fake-1-coin-old-round-pound-coin-circulation/ - Yesterday

A Buyer (Andrew1914) recently threatened me and clearly stated when discovering I'm a woman "A woman like you would push anyone to give you a few good slaps". He based this solely on the fact that I wrote to him in CAPS that he should not opt for SAPO for porcelain - EXACTLY AS BIDORBUY STAFF INFORMED ME TO DO WITH BUYERS WHO OPT FOR SAPO DELIVERY WITH PORCELAIN. I have done as BIDORBUY STAFF suggested I do with ANY buyer who chooses SAPO for porcelain items, yet this Buyer can suggest physical violence and assault on my person .... and BIDORBUY will delete MY negative ratings of him, but permit HIS NEGATIVE ratings of me to stand !? And this is done by BIDORBUY staff after I have CC'd his suggestions to BidorBuy support staff. This is clearly in support of this Buyers predilection of VIOLENCE towards women !! I strongly suggest hereby to the BidorBuy support team that you censure THE BUYER Andrew1914 as per the messages etc which I have CC'd to yourselves.... or face legal procedure for your support of violence against women. I will take this legally as well as consider options to approach the SAHRC and ALL Social Media Outlets if that is feasible...UNLESS you take a stand AGAINST this buyer THIS is an open threat as well as a complete defamation of my character as a woman

Hi Pierre, excuse the delay. I was out of town last week... The genuine coin comes in at 7g as expected and the fake at 6.6g -
Only in excellent condition. Price negotiable. Thanks.

Anyone else notice this coin (MS-63) in the NGC census? I noticed it several months ago. Has anyone seen it and of so, does it look like a circulation strike? I ask as first: One: It's the first and only one to my knowledge. Catalogs list a very low number which I cannot remember since I confuse the 1933 and 1934 but I think it's 28. Two: NGC has five 1936 listed whereas according to mintage records, there should only be three. Three: NGC also lists a 1926 farthing but this time as a "fine". It is unrecorded in any catalog I have and though I haven't been able to inspect it in person, I assume it's actually an impaired proof; one which circulated to reach that level of wear. I mentioned this once in an eBay listing when selling one of my coins and exchanged a few messages with the owner.

*** Shipwreck Coins - Artefacts & Memorabilia ***
LleMyl1130 replied to coinoisseur's topic in Coins and Notes (for the Numismatist)
Hi, Sorry to bring up an old post. Is there anyone who knows someone involved with the passed Grosvernor Wreck recovery or if there might be a new recovery crew I can speak to? I have seen Steven Valentine's name come up allot but I haven't managed to get in contact with him, yet. I am a descendant of Captain Sidney Turner and I have documentation about the wreck site that needs to looked at before any new expeditions are launched. -

Thank you, I see the larger magnifications are common on the market down here. I think I will avoid them and stick to the standard then. regards Robert -

New R2 and R5 coins
GROOVIE COINS replied to GROOVIE COINS's topic in Coins and Notes (for the Numismatist)
Well it seems the SA mint has heard my calls (I would like to think) to continue the Constitutional rights series with a release of new coins next year as well. No doubt due to the popularity of the current 2019 series. I think it must have been a few months back that I commented on the SAmint youtube channel and asked the 2019 rights themed coins to be developed into a full series that depicts all our rights. A series of coins similar to the US state quarters is exactly what we need to promote collecting in South Africa. In the below articles the mint has sent out an invitation for people to submit their designs in a competition, after which the winners will be announced in 30 November. Now I haven't done drawings in a long time, but I think I'll throw my 20 cents (pun intended) in just for the fun of it! Regards Robert -

The one I currently have is either 5X or 10X though the light burned out long ago. It is sufficient if you are trying to evaluate coins as NGC or PCGS do. I have never heard that 30X or 40X is necessary or even useful. -
