I am hoping to collect the four capital city £1 coins and I wondered if anyone could help please. I feel embarrassed to say it but my budget is not much. Thanks Dave

Does anyone know what the mintage figures are for this new not to be released £1 coin and is it worth collecting another for my grandchildren as a possible little investment. Thanks Dave

Now sold thanks. Dave

Hello all For sale is a lovely 1988 Canadian proof coin set for the 250th anniversary of Saint Maurice ironwork's in the Provence of Quebec and contains both the 1988 silver and circulating dollars in a case which is protected by another outer box. £25 which includes postage and payment by PayPal gift please. Thanks Dave

I have noticed on occasions that an average looking Kew 50p may sell for say £50 plus and yet some in excellent condition sell for around £35. When I was into RC helicopters some people on there were paying the same second hand as a brand new item. I just cannot see any logic or pattern in the way people decide how much to pay. Dave

£30 plus paid for a copy what's up with some people.

I have noticed that loads of times and i have seen really poor quality ones fetch good money and nice ones less and i cannot understand the logic of people.

I have seen a few on a popular auction site clearly stating they are fakes and people have paid decent money for them.

This is my Brunel and notice the Two Dounds instead of pounds and offset striking..

All as i have seen in the Midlands for years is the Standing on the shoulders of giants (standard one) and i would have noticed if i had a different style of coin. Be on the look out for fakes http://ukfakeanderrorcoins.50webs.com/OTHERS.HTML Dave

I have an almost complete collection of £2 coins and i have seen loads of those types of coins on a large auction site and i don't know why but sometimes they sell well and others not at all. A lot of people think that part of missing words, offset stamping and upside down edge writing makes their coin worth a lot but i don't think that is always the case and also it seems that most 50p's and £2 coins just lately are being offered as rare. For reference and information I like this site http://ukfakeanderrorcoins.50webs.com/index.htm You could put it on a large auction site and try and you may be lucky but at the end of the day it is worth £2 I have seen £2 coins sell for .99p and £1.20 P&P and obviously they are out of pocket on sales like that. Now if you had a Northern Ireland commonwealth games £2 coin that would be a different story. Dave

I thought this may have had some interest being as our queen is their reigning monarch.

Yes sorry my mistake I read the post and saw where a reply said maybe £25 posted and that stuck in my head. But you are correct I did say I would pay £20 so £20 it is. Dave

I forgot to add offers also accepted. Dave

Hi all I have a 1988 Canadian proof coin set and can anyone advise how much to ask as I am thinking of selling it. This is for info http://www.ebay.ca/itm/1988-Canada-Proof-Double-Dollar-Set-/370108801828?hash=item562c342324 Dave

Tell me about it.

Yes mate

I would be happy pay £20 posted. Dave

I don't know to be honest as I am not sure how much postage would be. But I am not a greedy person just inexperienced with no knowledge of prices. Dave

It's a really nice set so I will put it in one day and see. Thanks Dave

I guess i am not going get much for it and struggle sell it.

I have had to make do with one out of a bag with small marks on it.

Why its you Jon you can have it and will post Pete tomorrow. Pete. Hi Pete Sorry for the late reply but I would be happy if Jon had that Edinburgh coin. Dave
