    I found a 1862 penny with a 6 over 8 in the birmingham fair recently and bought it for 20p and sold it for £320 beat that lol

    It' s quite a good bet that most serious sovereign collectors are quite well heeled

    I presume this coin comes with another that says "Except islamic oil rich dictatorships that murder their own subjects"

    I am just gobsmacked that it could have had so many different dates on it

    Crowns from the sixties and seventies were seen as curios and often ended up in shop tills for a long time before being banked . I worked in a shop for about seven or so years from 2008 to 2015 and while not common i did have a few of the pre 1997 two pound coins and also five pound pieces pass through the tills - as i know they were oficially legal tender I accepted them .

    They were a pain as in the size of the darn things I mean , like modern cartwheels

    this proves crowns circulated doesn'nt it
  9. copper123
    Quite a few 1972 and 1977 crowns went into circulation

    Hard to find in mint state - I presume because it was a lot of money to put aside in 1893 a crown is easy funny enough though its around £150

    They tend to be sold first by a collector at they are so valueable . They were easy to trade in quickly for ready cash , its all churn , churn,churn

    All maundy coins are legal tender and every date has a much lower mintage than the kew gardens 50p

    Maybe misleading the public would be a more true statement .

    A 1934 crown has appeared very worn as well.................I personally think these circulated , others think differently , it could have been a pocket piece as well I surpose

    I got a 2-4-1 voucher

    I do believe that the 1954 penny is the rarest coin to have ever circulated ,it along with the 1952 halfcrown both were found in circulation both are one of a kind and the kew gardens coin while pretty scarce I must admit 210, 000 is quite a lot , its just the media love making things up

    I remember selling a couple of kews for less than a tenner- I must admit I dont think they are worth much more than £30 each even with all the hype. Trouble is everyone seems to just follow everything that is written in the media and accept it as the truth . They will start believeing that the EEC have banned bent bannanas next

    If it were an american coin of similar rarity it would be worth 2 million dollars
  19. copper123
    What about the 1954 penny or 19542halfcrown are they not rare ? Very interesting artical though
  20. copper123
    I love the way it says on ebay simillar items sold for £1-£2 when he has that outrageous tag on it
  21. copper123
    Getting more like this by the day as they turn into weeks and months

    The policy of giving 60 - 66 year old women £40,000 - £20,000 compensation for having to work an extra 5 years was bonkers and also in effect sexual discrumination - wheres the compensation for me having tio work the same ? It would also have had an unbelieveable cost thousands of billions
