Chris,

I doubt anyone (other than me!) would even notice this error, but on pg 85, under the decimal coinage section, for the pennies, you have 1984 listed as FROM SETS ONLY, which is not correct. It was a regular circulation piece, with a mintage of 154,759,625 (from the 1999 CCGB!). The penny, 20p and £1 were the only circulation pieces minted that year. The rest of the denominations are indeed from sets only.

Correct. I never looked in that section of the book. But since i dabble in decimal coins upto and including 1984 i know this to be true. :D

Thanks, in fact, lets put all the errors notifications in this one place. Can someone paste the URL's of the other forum areas reporting other areas? I'll get confused unless they're all in one place.

If you correct the spine error on Collectors Coins GB (Great Brittain) will that make my copy a collectors item?? :D

No, because if I do need to print more the rarer ones will be the correct spine ones!

Ok, great, keep it all here.

I didn't get it proofread because it took longer than I expected and time was so short! The next one will have 0 errors!

Always give yourself a little room for manoeuvre Chris... cos if you don't one will always get past you. :D
