Welcome to the forums James

Many of us like pennies, so you'll have plenty of (friendly) competition! Good luck with your collecting, and also detecting (but don't expect to find many collectable coins that way, though you'll find plenty of interesting stuff).

Well, if you have an 1897 high tide, or 1899 mint dot, or 1903 open 3 ... I'm interested!!

Welcome aboard, you can collect anything you want - as long as it is not Scottish. Those latters are my exclusive domain.

You have lattes also in Scotland? Oh LATTERS. Are they like Tatties?

I'll make sure your haggis is extra juicy.

My mum once fed us haggis. She never did again.

(To be fair - its worst fault was being over-salty.)
