Just wanted to notify everyone that I have replica gold ducats again. These are struck in brass, the prices are given above--look up for details.

Scott,

I could definitely use a set of replica medieval hammers for striking coins. Right now I don't have a set that I can use for public demonstrations. I would need a 2 lb and a 3-4 lb hammer.

Running up hills with ten to fifteen extra pounds of weight will smoke you but good.

All recent orders are on their way. I got to the post office five minutes after they closed Saturday, so everything went Priority.

Sorry for the slight delay. Let me know if there are any issues and I'll make it whole.

Mark, yep, 22 Edward III Groats shipped Priority would be $54. Yeah, just to clarify, I don't charge shipping on regular surface mail, First Class.

Standing by.

I have bigger fishes to fry, I guess you could say. Have to start concentrating my energies appropriately to my station. When you're young, you think you can do everything well. When you're my age, you start focusing on doing one or a couple of things well. I suspect when I get a little older I'll t...

Okay, heading out to the post office. Orders placed now will go out Monday.

All orders placed in the last little while are packaged and ready to ship. This--I am talking in the next hour or so--is the deadline for regular surface mail to arrive to most places in the US before the 31st. After that, if you want delivery before Pennsic it will be an extra $4 for Priority Mail....

Jehan de Pelham

I can get you twenty, Randy. Just drop me a PayPal to jwmcfarlin at adelphia dot net and I'll get them out to you.

Best,

Thanks very much everyone. I just wanted to pimp the coins one more time before Pennsic. I can get your orders out to you on Monday if you make them this weekend. If you are nervous about the USPS, you can get them Priority Mail for an additional charge of $4.00, which covers the additional postage ...

Jehan de Pelham

Thanks very much--very grateful.

Sir Kieran, your order is filled, packaged, and will go out in the post Friday afternoon. Thanks so much, it makes me very happy to fill this need and I can only imagine the places my little replica coins have seen, the tables they have diced for on, and the pleasure they've given people. It's reall...

Jehan de Pelham

I am always down for another coin order, I can couple up the package and give you a discount/added coins--drop me an order and I'll make you whole, Sir Kieran. Or, I'll just send it to you tomorrow--that's what I'll do. Best, John Jehan de Pelham, ecuyer and servant of Sir Vitus www.mron.org

Gentles, I have need of a reliable courier to bear a token of my esteem to a participant in the Combat of the Thirty. Please PM me if you are a participant in the Combat of the Thirty and could do me this favor. It would involve me shipping a small parcel to you prior to your departure to Pennsic (I...

Iain, you have an obscene quantity of replica coin--when that box gets cracked open, and for that matter, whevever it is transported from strong place to strong place, you should have good men standing by ready to lay about with the sharp edge of the sword and the iron bar. All current orders are sh...

I still have some striking slots open for short notice delivery. Anything listed as "Immediate Delivery" I can get in the mail the day after payment (provided I get it soon enough to package it the same day and then ship the next day), USPS Priority Mail, which is 3-days or less just about...

Jehan de Pelham

I wanted to bring these to your attention, as Pennsic draws nigh.

Yeah! I gots 'em. I can't provide any gold replicas, or the Blanc dit Guernar, but I can bang out Edward I pennies (Late 13th C to mid 14th C English), Edward III groats Mid to Late 14th C English), Richard II pennies, Richard II half groats (late 14th C English), Henry VI Groats (mid 15th C English...

I have two copies of Neverwinter Nights 2 Gold (this contains the basic game and the Mask of the Betrayer expansion), and one copy of Storm of Zehir, the third expansion. I also have the 3.5 Edition Dungeon Master's Guide and the 3rd Edition Players' Handbook, as well as the Forgotten Realms Campaig...

Russ, you were demonstrating the hand throw technique at CiT 2008--is that what you are suggesting? Bob, did they use any throwing equipment like an atlatl or a strap, or did they just hurl them by hand.

What I have is even better. It looks like an H when you look at it from above, and it has a length of pipe welded onto it, sticking up, into which you can place your banner pole. There are holes in the H to allow for it to be staked to the ground. The H allows it to be used in indoor events, too. John

Jehan de Pelham

That's right proper attitude.

I have an order in for the bazubands, but haven't run into Sir Haroun or his factors yet. I have also been busy the past couple of weeks and haven't been at fighter practice, so no worries. I plan on being there this weekend.

I weighed myself in and out of harness. 40 lbs, including both arms, finger gauntlets, cased greaves, and bascinet with aventail. The shield is 7 lbs, and the sword shy of 3, so less than 50 lbs.

These will not pass inspection. Not enough protection from crushing. SCA-legal finger gauntlets must be made very sturdily and will more covering than the historical models.
