  1. I wanted a Millennium year 2000 coin set but the Royal Mint changed the shape of the case from the oblong style to a con caved edge style and it did not fit in with my other sets in a book formation. So i thought i know i will buy a BU set and a BU crown and then purchase a 1999 empty case and put the coins in which i have done. Now i have done it i think i have ruined the BU set and should have left the coins in the cardboard packet. Dave
  2. I have used my rare earth on the coins and it slides down slowly and smoothly with the coin on a 45 degree angle so I guess the silver content could be right.
  3. This makes me wonder how genuine my queen Victoria crowns and florins are. Dave
  4. Does anyone know what the mintage figures are for this new not to be released £1 coin and is it worth collecting another for my grandchildren as a possible little investment. Thanks Dave
  5. I like it and if i were you i would keep it as i think a lot of work has gone into that. Dave
  6. Yes i guess you are right it must be me.
  7. I have just paid 0.88p for an excellent WWF 50p and a few adverts down someone wants £55 for one.
  8. Just lately whilst viewing on a large auction site i have noticed that a lot of 50p, £1 and £2 coins seem to have the word "rare" next to them and it makes me laugh especially the wannabe millionaires selling a 50p for £400 as an example.
  9. I live in Staffordshire and to be honest i have had about three and never bothered keep them and yesterday i had another and it is sitting here in front of me.
  10. I have got a pretty decent set but it cost me £10
  11. Hi Ian my bank is 3 miles away and that would be a way to do it but i think i may have got hold of a set but it may cost me £8
  12. People are asking £14 to £18 plus delivery for a set of four capital city £1 coins and the quality is not that brilliant and i would love a set and to be honest it is the only set i have got my heart on but i just cannot get the set. Dave
  13. Hi Nordle11 Sorry about that i did not realise. Dave
  14. I have put a plea for help regarding capital city £1 coins and both times they have gone.
  15. I am hoping to collect the four capital city £1 coins and I wondered if anyone could help please. I feel embarrassed to say it but my budget is not much. Thanks Dave
  16. Your joking I have booked a holiday to Babados thinking you were going tell me it is worth about £1000. :-(
  17. What condition is mine in and does it have a value if i put it on the bay.
  18. I have noticed on a large auction site that some people are asking extortionate prices like a few thousand on say a £2 coin as the date is missing so are they living on a different planet than me or are they being realistic. Dave
  19. I will look at it for you everyday
  20. I am being out bid at the last second of the auction but as said above if they settle down I can hang on until one comes at sensible money.
  21. They seem to go for different amounts according to quality which i understand and as such i have looked at sniping but one site said it needed my details like password so i ditched the idea.
  22. You are possibly right pity he does not like my piedforts £1 coins i am trying to sell.
  23. I have the English oak, Irish Flax, Scottish thistle and the Welsh leek piedfort £1 coins for sale and there has only been 12 views in four days so maybe my wording is wrong
  24. I thought today i had actually won a Kew gardens 50p and was beaten literally at 1 second left and it was snatched from my very eyes so i guess i need to learn how to snipe or however they do it.
