Thats what their grandparents have been doing for decades... and the longer they're held hostage the more go out of circulation, soon all these coins will be nearly unique. Slab a couple while they're good lol

You lot are quackers.

Thing.... Berlin Wall.
Unwilling Numismatist posted a topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
Amongst my numerous boxes of crap recent purcases I found the following. One is a commemorative of building the wall, apparently given to those who built it. The other is a total mystery. Oh and I'm open to offers as this stuff isn't my thing. -
I went along again to the Royal Mint today. They have started limiting tours to one per person per day. The number of Strike your own coins you can now have is 1 per person per tour. Posting this info for members as it isn't clear from the RM site, and I had a somewhat more costly day out than expected....

Royal Mint Experiance / SYO
Unwilling Numismatist replied to Unwilling Numismatist's topic in Decimal Coins
It's a good aned enjoyable trip for sure, but choose wisely if you're flexible. Currently its a Wallace and Grommet 50p, but that will change in December. Many times the coin youu can mint will be something which is or has been produced, but very rarely you get something which doesn't exist elsewhere. The Isaac Newton 2018 50p is a prime example of that, a mule specifically for Strike Your Own. -

Unwilling Numismatist replied to Paddy's topic in British Coin Related Discussions & Enquiries
I shrub off all your comments. -

Not quite sure what your link is supposed to be pointing at?

50p, the actual numbers so far....
Unwilling Numismatist replied to Unwilling Numismatist's topic in Decimal Coins
Royal Mint Pete, hopefully they have a fairly good idea of what they're doing -
Think I remember seeing something similar showing up in a viking hoard a few years ago. If my brain kicks back in and I remember where, I'll bung a link in.

I'm a convert to Quadrums too, can't recommend them enough! There is an aluminium case which comes with trays for quadrums, so you can actually store the coins securely and with many denominations in one medium. Using the size below to elimiate rattle is a must for me, I can't stand things that rattle, once you try them, you'll be hooked!

Changechecker haven't told Joe Public about the second rarest 50p hiding in plain site, so I've been trying to stockpile them. 2009 Kew gardens - 210,000 2017 Royal Shield - 1,800,000 2017 Sir Isaac Newton - 1,801,500 {the rest}
-
Some commemorative figures are produced here but I think they're still working on getting more completed. It's taking a while.
-
No, I was implying that change-checkers mintage figures were incomplete, and needed an update because it was missing from what they have been showing. Unfortunately my post was untimely in the fact that the mintage figures were released yesterday and just about everybody knows the new ones today.(yesterday now)
-
I said nothing about olympic 50p's blame @PWA 1967 and @bagerap for that.. I just said that the 2017 Shield was missing, until today.

I win, they added it today https://www.changechecker.org/category/blog-home/50p-coins/

Welcome to the forum Enjoy it and remember, there are no stupid questions.

Anyone here do VHF listening or FM DXing?
Unwilling Numismatist replied to blakeyboy's topic in Nothing whatsoever to do with coins area!
Its been about {way too many years} since I did anything that wild. But then that was USB on a Tristar 747, with a 400w burner, Sadelta base mic and hygain something 18ft antenna..... -
Well, they ain't coins Anyone here collect them, I have a few but they aren't really my thing and I may want to move them along. PM for infos. (All non English have long since gone).

Nah, that failed to sell on ebay a few weeks ago with a BIN of £.001

I picked up an unsealed bag of Tower of London ones last week plus a couple in change. Finally something has landed near me, but I guess they'll have minted about 28million of them knowing just how lucky I can be. I will hold onto them in the hope they'll fund slightly more than half a decent Viccy sixpence.
