I've been offered 500kg of pennies from change, in copper fire buckets. Gonna be £3k plus, due to the scrap. Seller is adamant they are unchecked, maybe true, since as I was talking with him on his market stall, I found an 1897 F148 'High tide' in one of his 10p tins.... All this takes me back to my dog-eared 'check your change' book, that went everywhere with me in the late '60's.... ...Co-op, probably 1967, corner of Bewdley Street and Crowther Street in Kidderminster, and I saw my mother receive an 1860- date visible only, but the oldest I had ever seen.....I think I still have it.....

TBH most buns had disappeared by 1968 - 69 probably many more were around in the mid sixties but then they were in terrible grade I bought a mint bag weighing quite a few kilos from e ebay about a year back and found 2 1869 coins which corroborates the sellers story that they were unsearched
