id give nigel farage a chance at shaking things up......hes good self described as the most hated person in european parliment.....gets my vote

he probably eats more frogs legs and belgian chocolate these days with his new euro chummies

some of the very rare wow wow 50p's ive had this week in my change. 3 x girl guides ( 1 is superb ) 1 x suffragette 2 x wwf 1 x vc and another 9 olympics, 8 different sports..2 x handball. all extremely rare

its gonna take more than a pie to get me to stop in or pass through the midlands, the virgins sound interesting though

tax doesnt apply to cold pies..........carry around with you, youre own microwave.....ask this bloke greg if you can plug it in and heat up.......simples

oner = 100 notes = £100

really means.....we couldnt sell em so we melted em all down i wouldnt part with my unc or ef d/florins, however ive emailed the mint and offered them my entire vf collection of d/florins for a oner each, pointing out that they are worth much less than this, no reply yet

often hammered though

let me explain for those not familier with betting odds...... liverpool are quoted as 10-1 to win the premiership this season....what this means is, if you bet £1 on liverpool............................................................................................................................................youve wasted a quid i may be wrong but this may be dito for lizzie le deux, ascended to the throne in 52 but got the hat in 53.

im not surprised.....£3 for a 50p piece and a piece of card is a lot to pay, especially considering you can get em for 50p from change A lot of the non collectors at my works, have been keeping those from their change, the good thing is they are now showing an interest in older coins too.

because they have been given to me as gifts and i like em... i doubt the collection i have would constitute a collection. anybody else want to give me an ounce of silver for free 50p olympic collection now sold due to tight wadded jock time waster.

i think thats the connection for me too. i love the Edward V11 florins for their reverses. i wonder how much longer spink can carry on having a book with decimal and predecimal coins in it. At the rate the mint is going these days, the QE11 could run into several volumes alone.

posties been with the latest recycled south american rainforest from the RM.....the rubbish just gets worse. mind you that 1kg gold coin would weigh your trussers down, theyre only minting 60 a cool £100,000 each. gonna be checking my change a little more often now... incidentally, i have a couple of £2 brittanias.....kinda like em, kind relatives have bought em for me as pressies and the like. so the 2012 £2 brittania is a very nice £57-50 from rm in what they claim is a new style display case, cardboard to you and me. bullion uk have the same coin for £25.....thats a lot of dosh for a cardboard box, and some think slabbing is dear

no roman double florin proof then

i was kinda hoping for £10 for the circulated coins and a further £6 for the other 2 plus P+P, however much that turns out to be. now that i know youre scottish, ive got to at least triple that

no..........i have 1 whole set of 29............ and then i have 20 coins taken from circulation plus another 2 in rm packs. youve been quick enough to jump on peckris here, but youve not answered the question........how much do you want to pay?

no reply from mr Azda, so i will keep em myself

wow....i didnt know there was a place called coin news ....hey you said you lived in slouff

sluff isnt too many miles from me.....i live in sunny suburb of Ashford (middx) which is actually in Surrey

debs.....wouldnt mind seeing the obverse

i did suggest you could ask collectors here in the uk to help you, but youve gone very quiet. okay dave.....the question now is what would you be prepared to pay? ive mustered the troops and between us i can round up 20 different designs,all taken from circulation. ive also 2 extras in the mint packaging........so just 7 to get.... if you want em

interlinked rings of st edmund.....or something like that.

welcome to Surrey Dave.....

[no it aint dave.......ive got maybe 7 or 8 dupes, 50 p each and postage dont come to much, how many others here can fill the gaps. if you dont ask, you dont get

my mother in law bought my son a RM set, i have most from change. if i get the whole set it will have cost £14-50, i wouldnt pay any more. maybe some collectors here may have spares from change you could obtain, ive got a few if you wanna swap that beaut 1927 florin proof
