Bullionaire

Nah, it's a Lamborghini Cointach

I really like the design of the decimal day 50p (same designer as the diversity 50p - she did a better job with this one i think) and the tv 50p. The 2 pound designs are meh (they havent done a decent 2 pound design since the RAF coins imo). I've bought a couple of the annual sets, mainly to get the young head version of the decimal day 50p!

Glad he got his money back. Must have been a worrying lesson for him. Its a shame, but you have to be mistrusting of everything these days.

Who on earth thought that would be a good idea to put on a bar?! Imagine one of the designers at the Royal Mint suggesting that these days and the Queen having to sign off on it

Merry Christmas everyone. Hope 2020 is a good year for us all! 🤞

Coin bar gratefully recieved from @ram64. Thanks a lot. Nice Christmas card too!

Donation made on behalf of @Yetiwatch, who generously requested that the money I was offering via bank transfer was donated to Alzheimer's Research UK instead.

Ah, I didn't realise you were in the USA. I had to google what a consignment store was haha. It looks great filled anyway. Mine would probably have to have a false bottom 3/4 of the way up to make it look a bit more full 😛

Where did you get the treasure chest? I've been thinking about one for a while

Good to hear. Finally got my replacement Mr Robin yesterday from the coin connection. Pleased to say its a lot better than the first and low CofA number 00027, which is a little bonus! No reply when i asked them to refund my return postage costs though...

Think my Robin is going to be bob, bob bobbing it's way back as well (to coin connection - I bought from them as they have a reputation for checking the coins and only letting good ones go... so much for that). Arrived yesterday with mucky marks round the 'Christopher' lettering.

I'll go the digital route this year, just in case the post office is closed/I can't get to it. £20 via bank transfer plus £20 to the charity of the winners choosing.

Up the poohper...

I quite like it. Plus I was successful in the change checker face value ballot, so I'll get a BUNC one for 50p. Can't go wrong!

Same here. The price is just about justifiable without the VAT. But the VAT really kills it. I might buy one on secondary market at some point
