    Welcome to the forum It must be nice to be named Rich. I would suggest you read up on your subject,search the net,look at Ebay and auctions before you dip your toe. I can't say it will be an investment although you may get lucky. We all use different storage methods it is down to your own preference at the end of the day.I have a cabinet,trays,albums,flips.aluminium cases ETC. One piece of advice is buy the best you can afford. Just enjoy it.

    Ebay's Worst Offerings

    Still going strong, Peter! 17 days since I smoked properly, and 13 since my last puff (which wasn't strictly tobacco, but I'm not risking smoking that either this early on....too risky). Money seems to be behaving very strangely - appears to arrive in my pocket and stay there. It's never done that before... Excellent Declan I still treat myself to a Cuban or a camberwell

  11. Don't get auction fever whether on Ebay or DNW. Don't buy without knowing what you are getting.Simples

    Tgp - Good And The Bad

    1000 coins submitted. So they have bought 1000 coins that they know diddly about. I have a name for a knobhead like this and it isn't becoming.

    Matt.Trev is not the full shilling.
  17. I think Chris might give another Bugger
  18. My father worked at an agricultural centre and Saturday mornings I would run to his works and was trusted to search the till and safe.(he was the boss) I got so many French pennies,silver and buns. The journey home in a Hillman Avenger via the fishmongers where we bought bloaters for tea. Last season I bought a load of sprats and apart from every local cat I had my daughters and wife tucking in.

    How Much Is A Recent Rarity Worth?

    It is strange that people buy this. I would much rather have a bit of G11 furniture and use it. I have my g11 holster pistol....bought from a coin fair....love it. My father gave me his stamp albums before he died they meant a lot to him.I have no interest
  20. Sorely tempted. I'm sure the Friday will be the better of the 2 days.
  21. Rob It keeps you keen and Mrs Rob happy. I try and talk to Mrs Peter during Eastenders and she tells me to be quiet...works every time.
  22. Birthday greetings Gents. Colin...BIG 40? I can just remember mine

    How Much Is A Recent Rarity Worth?

    Interesting point but how many 50p collectors have ever spent more than a few £ on their quarry. If I had a gold one the value to me would be BV. I would never probably look at it again.
