I didn't know if these coins, the 1936's, had wear or just weak strikes, especially the first one.

Youll have to go into the setting for chrome and change the setting about unsecured data else all the pic are blocked, forgot which exact tab it was. once you change it to allowed or allow for this site it should fix it.

I can't see the pictures. Perhaps I could try and mess around with settings but I won't as I like to block any accessways that the nefarious might exploit. The photos from Princetane always come up so it is more an issue of how the photos were posted.

There is nothing nepherious at looking at images. Your browser is broken. You are using settings for ecommerce for a forum website. Use a secure browser like firefox and standard compliant browser like firefox. Or don't look at the images. But don't accuse me of doing anyhting illicit or improper.

I'm using Chrome and I see the image OK, so nothing to to with the type of browser.

Nice pics Radars_teddy and welcome. :)

Ok, seeing the images now after carrying out a search and coming across this ... http://goccf.com/t/409413

No images are showing here.

Same as before... images hosted on an "insecure" site (HTTP instead of HTTPS).

For those who are using Chrome or Chromium based browsers (Edge, Opera, etc) and cannot see TNG's images, please try this:

Click on the padlock in the address bar.

Click on site settings.

Under Permissions, scroll down to 'Insecure content' and set to Allow.

Reload the page and images should load.


This will only affect CCF. Mixed content will remain blocked on all other sites until you allow it.

Still not sure why this problem actually occurred, as it's never happened to me before on this forum, but the main thing is that it's functioning now! Thanks jbuck

If you're really interested, I can explain the problem. But I don't want to be accused of anything corrupt.

In short, the message from a web server that uses cryptography is scrambled so that the data can not be read by anyone in the middle and the packets hop from server to server. The HTML pages that are served from a web server can call data from an unlimited number of computers for all the different elements, such as images and videos. Since they often come from different computers, they can be sent scrambled or not. The advantage of a scrabled message is that it gives some protection of passwords and other sensitive raw data.

The images I post come from our family webserver. It has zero need for cryptography. It is all free of any private information. The images of the coins are called from the html of a web site that uses cryptograpghy, without the images being scrambled. But I don't care if coin images are scrambled so that someone in the middle can see them or not. Let them look at them. I don't care. There is nothing sensitive in them. And to make the server do cryptography, strangely enough, I have to let a third party who I don't trust at all, have access to the server inwards, making it less secure than it is without cryptography. So we are not going to do that.

Your browser's coders have decided to break with html standards and not display unscrambled images from a pages that has html called from a server that scrambles its packets. On an eCommerce website, there might be some advantage to this. But on a forum it provides zero additional security.

And BTW there are better ways to secure your internet usage (VPNs, running noscript in you're browser, limiting cookies, preventing certain external Javascript calls that reach outside the server, etc etc). And the most dangerous thing you can do is just run an inherently insecure browser. Edge is insecure and chrome is a security hole. They both break down the protective wall of your web browser, and often pass information without you knowing it to an outside entity (like google and apple). Usually, this is to give you some super-exciting feature, like the local weather at the top of your browser 24/7 etc.

Thanks for the detailed explanation radars_teddy, I think I've got it now ... might even give Firefox a go to see how it compares.

Hi radars_teddy, sorry my comment wasn't worded more carefully. I'm not accusing you of anything, my concern is that others might exploit any chinks that might open up if I mess about with the security settings.

nealeffendi - as far as I know, the settings in chrome is site by site. But we use Linux so it is just a guess.

Well, I sent these coins all off to ANACS and after 2 months, they are being sent back to me know and we got notice of the grades. And I am somewhat perplexed at the results. They said the 1936 six pences are cleaned...

I haven't gotten the coins back yet, but these are the coins themselve

It never occured to me that they would get anything other than a straight grade


This one came back as whizzed! I see no hairlines on this - just what I though was a lamination error on the surface
