A couple of high grade for type pennies in the next Baldwin Auction on 6th October. The coins are not mine but have permission to share the picture of this one ,i believe the full auction will be online Thursday night / Friday morning if you are registered. Alternatively pre - register online or phone up for the hard copy catalogue ,if you are interested.

I really cannot see everyone in the country suddenly wanting to ditch their pounds/dollars/euros One of the main things is, virtualy nothing is backing these virtual currency" fads" , at least the pound or most major currencies are backed with gold and foregn currency and goverment goodwill when the 75 year old little old ladies start exchangeing their life savings into bitcoin I will join in. Even the major pension funds dont bother" investing" if you can call it that when theres nothing backing these "Alternative investments" By the way , if you want to have a go I tip my hat to you , braver than me .

Could be a crude copy?

I'll ask Fiona Bruce (Fake or Fortune).

Just to bring up to date - the box of catalogues promised by the book dealer has disappeared sadly. He fears he binned it during lockdown. He is now aware of our potential interest and will let me know if any more turn up.
