British Queen Anne 1711 6p in Good.

Every notice how an image can greatly increase a coins problem. The hit below Anne is not nearly as bad as the image leads you to believe.

Even in that grade it has some charm.

What do you mean 'that grade'? What's wrong with the grade?

Perhaps it the phrase "it has character" could be applied. I suppose it is the equivalent of having a great personality. Actually I like it. Is it going on the bay of E?

Ajaan:

A man has to know his limitations... I note that you said "ever notice how an image can greatly increase a coins prroblem"

I understand the concept and my images have never been as good as yours so basically I am taking this opportunity to explain why I do not post more images here. In addition, I still don't get how you shrink pictures to fit the 50 whatever it is limit. I am not trying to hyjack your thread, I am trying to help illustrate the issue here for those that are tuning in.

Edited to add: Can anyone even guess what coin I attached to this thread? I think the image speaks volumes

'kat, first of all it should be 'ever notice' not 'every notice' Oh well, I was never an English teacher.

I don't shrink the images, I use a free web image hosting site. Photobucket.

I was attempting to make fun of my own inept abilities that are in a class by themself...

I think your image is fine and significantly better than what I would do.

If the coin could talk it would say "ouch!"

ajaan

Little do you know the mark is really a rare mint mark.
