Hussulo Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 I still have a bit to do but if anyone fancies taking a look and critiquing the site for me I would be grateful. I am looking for opinions good and bad, spelling mistakes etc and any suggestions eg, new content. http://gold-sovereign.net/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constanius Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Nice site, just noticed a couple of typos Under Sovereign Dates & Types 'for example Edward VIII sovereigns as their are less' should be there Under Home 'Gold Sovereigns, struck by the Royal Mint have also been around for a long time and are globally excepted and recognised' should be accepted.

YeOldeCollector Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 I'm loving the site, Hus! A few points: On the homepage 'Bendetto Pistrucci' should read Benedetto. On the Coin Grading page 'its self' should read itself and 'higher grade then they actually are' should read 'than they are'. You might also want to rid the first 'coin is a' from the Proof section at the very bottom. On the Buying Gold page 'If you are buying from a jewellers, bare in mind' should read 'bear in mind'. On the Selling Gold page 'Of course the grade of your coin/s will have a big impact on there value' should read 'on their value' and watch out for 'payed' when it should be 'paid' in the Disadvantages of Selling via an Auction. Otherwise it's a brilliant site and I hope it proves successful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hussulo Posted May 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Constanius and Clive, thanks very much for your input and taking the time to read over my site If anyone notices anything else or has an idea for another post or page (I was thinking one on coin termology?) then please let me know. I am slo looking to exchange links with any other decent coin related sites. Many thanks, Hus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedeadpoint Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 I think leaving the word "bare" in there will make your site a little more popular with the search engines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constanius Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 I think leaving the word "bare" in there will make your site a little more popular with the search engines TDP you are incorrigible but correct of course(should that be coarse!!!)

Hussulo Posted May 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 I think leaving the word "bare" in there will make your site a little more popular with the search engines HAHA I never thought of that I should maybe change it back. I could maybe add more words like "bust" as in jubilee bust etc.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedeadpoint Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 You guys are inspiring a thread of numismatic euphemisms lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hussulo Posted June 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 I've added a section about error coins: http://gold-sovereign.net/category/error-coins/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikaros Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 Sure, wake up my inner editor. Under Blank Planchet: "Not perhaps an error per say" should be "Not perhaps an error per se" (and should be italicized since it's not English). Under Wrong Planchet Error: "Below is a picture of a 2 pence design struck on a 1 pence planchet." should be "Below is a picture of a 2 pence design struck on a 1 penny planchet." Pence is plural. Under Multiple Errors: For "...tend to be more actively sort by error collectors.", did you mean "...tend to be more actively sought by error collectors."? Really good stuff there -- I deeply envy that poor threepence at the end of the page! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
