Debbie Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 Hi Nicky, welcome to the forum. Yes you may be increasing the (known ) female population by 50%! Everyone's very friendly and helpful here. I'm sure you will learn lots and good luck with finding those coins. I would recommend the check your change by the way! Quote
Colin G. Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 Hello and welcome, Tony Clayton has a list on his site that may be of usehttp://www.coins-of-the-uk.co.uk/dec50.html Quote
Paulus Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 Welcome along Nicky! A little tip you might like is to go to a bank or Post Office and exchange a fiver (or whatever) for 50 pence coins, that way you might fill some gaps or upgrade existing examples at just 50p a pop! And of course spend/swap/or re-exchange the boring ones you have already! Have fun! Quote
Accumulator Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 Hi Nicky, welcome to the forum. Yes you may be increasing the (known ) female population by 50%! Everyone's very friendly and helpful here. I'm sure you will learn lots and good luck with finding those coins. I would recommend the check your change by the way! Welcome to the forum Nicky. I would venture to suggest that you've increased the female population by 100% (unless there's something strange going on), but then I'd be accused of being to maths what Peckris is to english Quote
Peckris Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 Hi Nicky, welcome to the forum. Yes you may be increasing the (known ) female population by 50%! Everyone's very friendly and helpful here. I'm sure you will learn lots and good luck with finding those coins. I would recommend the check your change by the way! Welcome to the forum Nicky. I would venture to suggest that you've increased the female population by 100% (unless there's something strange going on), but then I'd be accused of being to maths what Peckris is to english Ahem. Isn't an increase from 2 to 3 an increase of 50%? Or is my maths in inverse proportion to my command of English? Seriously, welcome to the forums Nicky. You can check 50p pieces in your change, but you might then want to look at the older larger 50 pences which I think are nicer, being bigger. Some of them were only available in the specimen sets issued by the Mint, but the rarest currency piece of its day was the 1985 50p.Anyway, happy collecting and here's to a long and fruitful time in this forum.

Debbie Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 I didn't realise we already had 2 females! I was working on the basis that we had gone from 1 to 2.Er well yes I was sort of including the lady who I replied to a while ago who had just lost her father and needed help in sorting out his coin collection...but we haven't heard from her in a while, so you may be right after all!

This isn't someone who posts regularly - I just remember us pointing out to this member that Debbie was also a member, so she wasn't the only female. Perhaps Debbie will remember who it is? Quote
Paulus Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 I'm a poet and don't know it Yey, that works even better ... Grammatically correct too, Peck take note ... Quote
Peckris Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 I'm a poet and don't know it Yey, that works even better ... Grammatically correct too, Peck take note ... True, but there isn't any combination of "t" and "o" (or even "oo") Quote
