More rubbish in the sun this time in a headline - just wondering if it was a slow news day today , or are we getting tired of brexit and the election already? They should have worked out by now their story in a none story caused by the general public using liquid nitrogen gas to increase the value of a pound coin 10,000 times and maybe sell to some person with half a brain on craigslist or gumtree

or probably none existant

I would be less worried about the sellers - its any buyers that would worry me

seen 50 or so - according to the internet a 2016/2017 mule exists - not found one yet . Some people are selling the ordinary 2016 coin or craigslist / gumtree for up to £500 claiming its rare - how a coin with a mintage of 1 .5 billion can be rare and worth £500 I don't know

Try gum tree there are several thousand rare peter rabbit 50ps on there at up to £1500 each

I would say if all the coins are the same that they have all been cleaned at some time so are worth very little , dont hold your breath for a great valuation from a dealer. What you see is not lustre that went years ago on this coin

To be honest there are many pennies in this grade of this date - I find it hard to value at more than £3 . Dont rush to slab it!

By the way Baldrick got plenty offers of cash down at the docks , mostly around sixpence

doorstep salesmen? will not take no for an answer

The strange thing is these pound coins have halved in price in the last three weeks or so for some strange reason (logic says they shound be holding their own at least and not diving in price) , unless there is some strange manipulation in price going on they are going up and down like a brides undergarments .

I bet it was some scally from near birmingham

jolly bad form this faking halfcrowns during the war

like tom hanks said "stupid is as stupid does"

COULD BE LAUER very rare type used to be known as the hairy head edward vii issue . nicer grade would have made it very collectible , date scratched in exergue has not helped

All is really great for the new chancellor millions of five pound notes dissapearing from circulation with hundreds of thousands of people holding indistructable notes hopeing they might be worth more than face value in 10 000 years time due to an article in the daily mail . one born every minute

heritage pic is dreadful

yep

I agree , I found a few bits five or four years ago but last two times I have been have been pretty poor

THE PENIS TATTOO A guy gets home late one night and his wife says: "Where have you been?" "I was out getting a tattoo." "A tattoo? What kind of tattoo did you get?" "I got a hundred dollar bill on my penis." "What the hell were you thinking? Why did you get a hundred dollar bill on your penis?" "Well, number one, I like to watch my money grow. number two, once in a while, I like to play with my money. And lastly, instead of you going out shopping, you can stay right here at home and blow a hundred bucks anytime you want!"

foot tatoo=painful

Not sure he would be that nice about it to be honest

the ideal penny to drop into a vintage penny arcade machine lol

LOL - thats more like it!

WOT NO BIKINI CLAD BEAUTY ON IT'S BONNET THROWN IN FOR FREE BAH HUMBUG , RIP OFF.

From what i remember Spain , italy and germany and france all offered to exchange coins and notes to euros indefinately . The smaller eec countries ie luxemberg ,belgium etc promised notes only for a minimum of ten years but not coins
