people will buy anything

One of the rarest UK coins in circulation is the 2009 Kew Gardens 50p. They retail at anything from £90.00 upwards depending on condition

The design was reissued in 2019 and these are retailing for 25.000 upwards


On a certain web based auction site there are a lot of fake 2009 coins being advertised and quite astonished described as such. 'Space fillers' 'nearly the correct weight' 'smaller that an genuine one'

Although this one is economical with the truth

What i am really gobsmacked is that there are idiots who are bidding on these who do not red the blurb and offering £80.00 plus

i bought 10 sir iaasc netwon coins when they first came out, trebled my money so far.

It interesting that all these rare coins can be bought from china.

Always funny that the person left holding the coin in the end is left with 50p...

My sister in Australia asked me to send her some Tesco carrier bags, the old type with blue stripes, she sells then on australia ebay for AUD5.

US$12.90 for 3 Kew Gardens 50 pence on aliexpress, free postage.

I've bought a number of copy coins from China, just for fun - such as a 1933 and 1954 penny.

I've seen the Peter Rabbit ones advertised from £2 to thousands. How do they very?

It depends how much front the vendor has.

Sorting through my late father's books, so I don't throw out the baby with bath water, I came across a book on the Velocette. On Amazon £320. Result!



Put it one side, kept sorting and a few days later went to advertise it. Prices starting at £16.

You're getting the idea.
