Nearly 300 new coins, most are available for the first time in over 30 years, and many are illustrated

Important:

Next week on Sunday 11th June I shall be attending the London Coin fair at the Holiday Inn, Coram St, Bloomsbury, London WC1. The coins listed below will all be for sale at the coin fair. I thought it only right that I offer them to subscribers first, but as I'll be traveling from Wednesday 8th June onwards, you'll need to email me pretty quickly to ensure I put them to one side before the coin fair. 

If you can't email a reservation before Tuesday evening, please call me on (UK mobile number) 07833 112709 as I'll be on that number from Wednesday afternoon onwards. If you contact me after Saturday 11th, there is still a chance that the coins you would like are available, but I am rather hoping to sell lots of them at the coin fair! Sorry to have to rush things.

The next Radio Programme:

The coin phone in/radio programme that I do for BBC 3 Counties Radio is now broadcast online, so you can hear it throughout the world (which is actually pretty mind blowing!). I'm on again on February 10th June from 3.30pm GMT. See the home page for a link to the live broadcast. This month I'll be talking to Kate, who will be bringing in over 400 coins that she dug up in her Hertfordshire garden!

The new coins:

  • Generally pictures are good, but please trust my grading and description and use the picture (where available) to back that up, as all coins can be returned if you are not entirely satisfied.
  • You'll need to use the 'back' button on your browser to return to the list after viewing an image.
  • Most of the coins in this newsletter came from a private collection that had been added to mainly in the 70's, so most of these coins are up for sale for the first time in over 30 years!
  • Coins are priced in GBP. The EUR and US$ are for guidance, and the actual price will be the GBP x exchange rate on day of purchase.
  • To reserve coins online use this online form. or Email with details of the coin or coins you require.
