Ætheling Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Coinpeople presents the Second Season of the British Popular Coin Idol, in association with the Imperial Bank of Coinpeople. Same rules apply as usual, which do you prefer? Æþeling's Edward the Elder 899-924 Anglo-Saxon penny OR Æþeling's Cnut 1016-1035 Anglo-Danish penny?

geordie582 Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 I voted for the Canute but there is a sentimental reason! I used to have one but sold it along with the rest of my collection in 1978, to purchase my first computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ætheling Posted August 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 I go Edward the Elder. That Canute to me looks too cleaned and just not as nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ætheling Posted August 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 I know! It has to be said Stu decimal doesn't get much interest from British collectors, except perhaps for me. Which makes me a rather unusual case in question as i collect out of the mainstream. I collect hammered and Decimal, everyone else seems to focus on the 1662-1967 periods. So me being Harry opposite means i focus on everything but what's fashionable to collect. But i'm awkward as you should know by now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
