    Well done that man!!! From memory, I don't recall seeing any advance notice suggesting there would be no March edition, but I'll go and hook it out and have a browse through it. Won't take long as it got thinner and thinner as the years went by. Again, many thanks for this info.

    It was !!! I've got it from the Fitzwilliam Museum website of coin periodicals - link here If you scroll down alphabetically to Coin Monthly, or just go to pages 38 to 39, you can see that the last Coin Monthly magazine was indeed, February 1992. Mystery solved. Of course, what we don't know is precisely what caused them to suddenly fold. I'm assuming that there's no clue in that February 1992 edition, Dave?

    Here's their first, from 1994 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/The-Coin-News-Yearbook-1994-James-Mackay-and-John-Mussell-Editors-Used-Good/382814188686?hash=item592180f48e:g:u90AAOSwC8ZceC9z The first without NEWS was 1997, as they said https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/The-Coin-Yearbook-1997-Mackay-James-A-Used-Good-Book/383115087065?epid=87422213&hash=item5933704cd9:g:fFAAAOSw8sZdXZvd Here's a Coin Monthly yearbook, 1991 (nothing for 1990, 92, or 93, which just means "not on eBay") https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Coins-Year-Book-1991-A-priced-listing-of-all-British-Coins/392429841317?hash=item5b5ea42ba5:g:x2MAAOSwrHJdYrnq 1989 https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_odkw=coin+yearbook+1997&_ftrt=901&_sop=12&_sadis=15&_dmd=1&_osacat=0&_stpos=EX2+5TQ&_ipg=50&_ftrv=1&_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=coin+yearbook+1989&_sacat=0 Before that, there's 1987 but nothing else until as far back as 1983. I think it possible (though no evidence as yet) that Coin Monthly's yearbook may have continued after the magazine folded if they saw profit in it - after all, Seaby/Spink, Coincraft, Collectors Coins, and C&MV all published annuals without a magazine to underwrite them.

    Same here. I could barely afford it anyway after spending £1400 on the F8 from LCA recently. Plus I've got other buying commitments coming up, so it would have been very tight. But it certainly would be good to have one.

    OK, I confess, I bought the 1922/27 penny. Had to at that price, LOL.
