    I have no idea why UA-cam recommended me this video because I have no interest in collecting coins, but I just sat and watched you sort through the entire bag. Maybe UA-cam knows me better than I know myself 🤔

It seems some genius estate agent has managed to alter the image to such an extent, the post office is now called Canvey on Sea. Fabulous 😂😂

    I notice on the obverse a similar thing has happened with the gold, not so much as the reverse tho.
    Are they worth much ?
    I know rarity doesn't always mean 'loadsa money ' , I just wondered about errors like that.
    Britannia is my favourite reverse, the Romans used her image on reverse of some of their British coins , imo we should always have a coin with her on it's reverse, :)

  • @dieseldragon6756
    @dieseldragon6756 3 місяці тому

    Ooh, some nice finds there chap! I got into coin hunting in early 2019, but of course the events of the following year sort of killed that off and I never got back into it! 😷🚫🙃
    Have to say I'm envious of the speed at which you're able to work through a bag! I tended to lay mine out in a 5x4 grid (Though I was doing circulated 50ps) but I was quite slow checking and categorising them, and didn't really look out for errors either.
    In my case age might have something to do with it too, though. _[Gestures at walking frame 😋]_
    Talking of errors, that _Fried Egg_ was a very nice find! I admit I'd have probably run right past it without even spotting it! I think I still have _one_ unopened £20,- bag around somewhere, I might have to work through that one _very_ carefully! 😇
    Closest I think I've had to an _error_ was a 2015 Britannia where the outer ring had been compromised and had started to oxidise, so I returned it to circulation. Often regret it (Think that was the only '15 Britannia I ever had) but at the end of the day I think I once unwittingly passed-on either a _Kew_ or a _Presidency of the EU_ at some point in life, so that sort of stuff happens. 🎰😇
    Also: You might've converted me away from sealed bags: They used to be all I ever looked at on the assumption coin centres would never check coins but bags dropped off at the Post Office probably had been. If I do another hunt in the future I'll have to give Post Office bags a spin! 📯💰👍
