  1. That's not a bad price to be honest. All the Charles III sets seem to be expensive. I'm not sure there's much better available in the UK to be honest. I picked up one for £46 last month, that's the cheapest I could find.
  2. I'm still waiting! As for mint sets, I only buy the basic definive set, the ones without the commemoratives. I have been boycotting commemorative coins since 2005.
  3. Michael Gouby was selling the Type 4 and 5 1992s for about £60 in EF. So I guess somewhere between £30 and £50 would be reasonable. I think the 2006 is rarer than either of those. I've got about 20 type 4s and maybe a dozen type 5 - not EF condition you understand. They are much more common though.
  4. I have found a Kew Gardens 50p in the past. I believe I would have found more, but obviously everyone was looking for them and removing them. No one - other than myself - has been actively looking for these 2006 ten pences. I have four. Three I've found, one AU/possibly UNC from eBay earlier this year. I know Tony Clayton has at least obe, possibly two of these. I did hear of someone else who had one. So that's what seven known coins for certain. I suspect perhaps only one die was used for these and I just happened to acquire two of them close together in 2006/7. I haven't seen one since until this morning, and I have been looking! There's nothing rare about the Kew Gardens 50p. I could find countless on eBay or elsewhere and buy a mint state one tomorrow, for a price obviously, but they're are readily available, expensive doesn't equal rare! I hope you can update your coin book with these varieties!
  5. Eighteen years and I've found my third one in change today. Not a great looker though.
  6. Please do! I would be very grateful if you find any. After all you secured me all the BU ten pences from 1992 to 2003, all those years ago!
  7. Bump. @Chris Perkins if you can source any. Has anyone got a Type 4 (between/between), Type 5 (at/at) 1992 ten pence in UNC? Willing to pay £30 for each. I need these for my full run in uncirculated. I'm still looking for a 2006 Type A (at dot on reverse) 10p. Willing to pay £30 for this in UNC condition. Mine is only AU.
  8. It could be that they appeared to be scarce, but simply because the stockpiles hadn't made it out yet. I've received two 2023 5p in change today.
  9. Ive been finding a lot of 2022 coins. I've also seen a few 2025 £1 coins and on eBay people are selling the currency 2023 5p coins. So, there's hope.
  10. I prefer 1888 myself, much lower mintages. 😀
  11. I've been finding 2021 and 2022 coins quite a bit recently. I acquired another 2023 £1 the other day. Eyes peeled, hopefully they'll make an appearance by next year.
  12. Any Vicky Young Heads in circulated grades (preferably VF) for the 1850s, 1860s and 1870s, plus 1845, 1846, 1888 and 1893 Jubilee. Not interested in Maundy.
  13. I'm inclined to think any Edward coins minted in Richard III's reign are posthumous Edward IV pieces.
  14. Good luck finding Edward V coins, they exist but are exceptionally rare.
