Coin collectors?

[tonka1878]

I've got those. Do you know what they are worth?

not currently but I am hoping to find out.

To me it has absolutely zero value, as it's not something I would sell. Even though I've spent thousands on it, I did inherit most of the coins so I see it as just passing it down...To people who will probably sell it on of course...



It's the 2009 Blue Peter designed 50p. I have the 2011 version that was released as part of the London 2012 Olympics, the 09 version there were around 20k minted, which leads to aftermarket prices of:

Buy the 2009 Blue Peter 50p London Olympics BU

I have paid a lot of money for some coins but £200-250 for a 50p I haven't been able to square.

I'm sure the good people of GOT will be checking their collective coin purses to assist you in this quest.

Has anyone bought the Australian Queen Elizabeth commemorate coin yet?


You know, the one where she looks like Hyacinth Bucket from ‘Keeping Up Appearances’?

Apparently it’s going to be worth something one day…

The tin sounds interesting...

Ah well youthful enthusiasm made a tin of foreign coins seem magical. A tatty old Nigerian dollar and wavy indian coins felt like they were from another world to me before I could just google those places.

Now not so much. Which is why they're rotting in a tin.

Kids don't know how lucky they are being born in the digital era with a world of knowledge at their fingertips.

I don’t have one at the moment but my dad’s has been allocated to me in his will. So fingers crossed I won’t have one for a long, long time. I was the only one that ever had any interest in his hobby, therefore he’s giving it to me. It’s a fantastic collection as well, been going since the early 80s.

Definitely value in that but like you said hopefully not for a long time!

Had my moments ....

Why do I get the feeling that is an understatement?

 

[tonka1878]

I've got a few £2 and 50p that are rare(ish) also. Need to go through them tbh

Do it and I have been in touch with an auction house overnight so could get you a valuation if you want me to?

I will have to have a look. I've got some, but not too many
