Westminster Colection only go as far back as last year.

Royal mint go as far back as 2003 but only do them in gold.

24carat.co.uk is too expensive, and also not enough description.

Try Airedale Coins in Yorkshire www.airedalecoins.com

They make something of a speciality of modern stuff and I've had Britannias from them at a reasonable price.

I've got a 2 ounce Proof 1992 Australian Kookaburra. That's a whopping coin, and one of only 5000 struck. Interested?

Oh yes, it's also in a black case with a popper to keep it closed, and has the certificate from the Australian mint. It's number 3598 out of 5000. It's all perfect.

I need £42 for it (and postage cost).

This sold one is exactly the same:

And it went for £24.00

Match that, as as you're a forum member, you can have it for less than I paid for it!

What is the diameter?

5cm

No, generally I leave modern stuff well alone, because it's overpriced and will just increase in value with bullion/inflation.

You should have a word with the other young gents in here and perhaps try diversifying to some real coins ;)

I have a few 'real coins'....but not many.

Im just filling a coin display box I have, Just 6 spaces left now...then Ill move onto the historic stuff.

Everything is historic, but not everything is made to be circulated....All modern coins that go straight into capsules aren't, and that is the difference in my mind between 'real coins' and novelty coins.
