    Skyfiller got a reaction from MonkeysUncle in 2p’s   
    I bought this when I was 16 and in the 28 years I’ve had it must of had 10’s of thousands of 2p through it. I’ve always kept an eye out for different or non uk ones and amazingly I’ve only ever come across 6! Do you think the lack of foreign muck is because people just don’t cross borders with coppers in their pockets or because there are just so many 2p’s in circulation that they are just so diluted. Compare these to euros passed in place as pound coins which must have already happened twice this year to me.

    It’s the details that don’t match that you want to pay attention to and study.

    I found this little video on the internet and the image of the proof coin with holes drilled in it drew my attention! It has some interesting information on hallmarking, precious metal chemical analysis and the Trial of the Pyx.

    Very interested to see how they’re priced on this preorder. Based on current sovereign premiums they may appear a less attractive option than maybe some of the older Sovs that are readily available. FOMO probs means orders will be placed but may also mean other sovs are being sold off to fund purchases of the new KCIII Sovs 👍🏼
  20. Thanks

    @GoldDiggerDavePlease excuse my ignorance here, I know know nothing about slabbed coins!
    So if you got the mint to send straight to NGC, and the capsule didn’t open in transit 🙄, you would pretty much have to be guaranteed a MS70?

    When I was a lad I worked at a company who processed gold silver and platinum for JM and Engelhard. I would often have to carry coils of gold from the safe to a press, I can remember they were pretty heavy, probably 10 kilos or so. I never really thought of the value cos at that time I had no interest in precious metals, beer, music and lasses were the priorities. I was young and daft but good at carrying heavy things, now I'm only one of those things.
