    Really love the energy of this video Thompson’s coins, the exuberance almost adds an extra vibrancy to the colour of these coins! The honey bee was my favourite, imagine if you accidentally put one of them in a vending machine, you’d sure have a bit of egg on your face
    Cheers

    What the heck?Matt, this is the 3rd video I've found lately that I haven't seen. Hmm! You wouldn't be doin business without me ...... would you? 🥴 Just kidding. Another great video Matt thankyou AND thankyou soooo very much for another coin delivery that came buy and once again the packaging was out of this world ....... I've never seen care taken like that before!
    The box was great, the coins were happy having a little party inside when I opened BUT as soon as they saw me ...... well they just played dead! .. o.k. Matt. Again thankyou and if you see this tomorrow, please let me know about the 2020 $2 I was asking about. Thankyou again!
    Matt is good
    Matt is wise
    Matt only wants us to be happy! 🇭🇲🤗

    Thank you for this video ! I started collecting coins years ago when I worked as a check out chick and I would find the colourful $2 coins and take them home (don’t worry I would always replace the money I took with my own !)
    But I have started collecting the limited edition books that have come out and I really want to expand my collection. Hope to see more videos from you !

      Thanks for sharing your story Holly! I feel like that's a really common starting point for so many collectors and often leads to such a rewarding a fun journey into collecting :)

    Matt, my story is a little interesting. I had a close relationship with Justin from downies in 2016/2017 with the licensed Post Office Group (LPOG) He talked me into buying the planetary set for $170 dollars. He knew i had a soft spot for anything planetary.

    • @ThompsonsCoins
      @ThompsonsCoins  Рік тому +1

      Justin is a lovely guy! I used to work with him and it's always great to catch up with him :)
      Those sets are so incredibly popular now it looks like your interest in the planets has really taken care of you!
      Thanks for watching! 😄

      Hey Max! Sure I will definitely do a video on these and have a chat about them. I agree there are certainly some wonderful designs which have been produced over the years :)

    Great video! How would you recommend storing coins preserved in their protective folders? Or I guess keeping them all together?

    • @ThompsonsCoins
      @ThompsonsCoins  2 роки тому

      Great question! I made a video highlighting some neat accessories and my website has a range of suitable storage options.
      Above all else, make sure to keep your coins in a cool/dry space out of direct sunlight and you'll be heading in the right direction :)

    Hiya Matt! Got your video recommended by YT. I didn’t know you have your own channel after seeing your videos at Bullion Now. Great information in this video and I do love collecting the $2 coloured coins although they are nearly impossible to come by here in Singapore!
    Keep on uploading your videos. Will try to watch as many as I can. Showing my support by subbing! Cheers and have a wonderful weekend 👍🏻😊

    • @ThompsonsCoins
      @ThompsonsCoins  2 роки тому

      Thanks for watching!
      I believe it is, I think there was some confusion created by a media report on the C mintmarked coins being a limited mintage (some people thought the small mintage was to be the entire mintage) but it would be very unusual for the mint to go to all the effort of a coloured $2 coin without issuing it for circulation too.

    Sounds like a recipe to make money to me. Mint a $2.00 coin and sell it for $10.00. Are we gullible or not!!
