    When I was young, we had coins all the way back to Queen Victoria in our pockets. It was really strange and disappointing when decimalisation happened. Farthings had just gone out of circulation, but my grandmother kept them.

    even after decimalisation the sixpence at its new 2.5p value had notionally monarchs pre Elizabeth II was in use along with Florins at the new 10p value (though the silver content saw either the mint or other people (not strictly legal) took them out without demonetising

      Yes we used it at work for some years after decimalisation because it was the coin that worked our public access Xerox copier. We had to keep a supply at the counter to change for users wanting to make copies. It was 2½p per copy. They were much bigger than A4 size, but not as wide as A3.

    Is it not illegal to defaced coines and notes ?

    • @andy2950
      @andy2950 11 днів тому

      No. It's only illegal if you intend to make the coin unfit for circulation.
      If the coin is identifiable, it's fine.

      Yes, it is illegal to deface money in the United Kingdom. This includes defacing banknotes and coins.
      Banknotes
      The Currency and Banknotes Act 1928 makes it illegal to deface banknotes by writing, printing, or impressing words, letters, or numbers on them.
      The police and courts decide whether to prosecute for defacing banknotes.
      Coins
      The Coinage Offences Act 1936 makes it illegal to deface coins by stamping words or names on them.
      It is also illegal to tender or use defaced coins.
      The public can help prevent defaced coins by refusing to accept them.
      The Treasury must grant a license to melt down or break up any current or former UK metal coin.

      @@Cooke125 That statement says "illegal to deface coins by stamping words or names on them" and nothing about writing. Writing something on a coin is totally different, as long as not obscene etc! 😁. Plus using a Sharpie pen the words can easily be removed using hand sanitiser, so no harm done. Banknotes is a different matter, as your above paragraph again states it is illegal to deface notes by writing, printing etc. on them. I used to work in a bank and we regularly had to remove notes because of people writing obscene words, defacing the Queen's portrait, and the like on them.

    • @WarpedWorldWeird
      @WarpedWorldWeird 11 днів тому

      Yes that's correct, but bankers have been writing on banknotes for a long time, and there are plenty of people on TikTok who film themselves destroying UK and American coins to get metal to make jewellery, so if they actually took that seriously, they'd have to arrest all of them first.....​@@Cooke125

    See if you can do a video using the XRF to test the metal composition of the tinny sounding 2019 50p against a regular one. Lets bust this myth once and for all, perhaps its just our ears playing tricks on us!
