That is gorgeous, is it on wood or a rock, it looks a bit like some of the Yew furniture I have in my house.

It's an Olive wood base, has some beautiful grain to it.

Thanks for the like

If still valid for postage, old stamps can be bought up cheaply in order to cut down on the cost of sending letters and packages.  But the face values tend to be low hence the need for a large number of stamps.

In the UK, all the decimal stamps from 1971 onwards (excluding any ½p elements) are still valid for postage as long as they are unused.  It is an offence to re-use any stamps that have passed through the post uncancelled as this is defrauding Royal Mail

Might be worth checking the bits I've bolded here if it's of interest. I may have been misinformed but I've been told (and subsequently successfully had delivered) letters and parcels that only have the head of the current monarch on, and that includes 1ps stuck to the front where the stamp should be. It's the Royal Mail still so that's why they do it is the theory, and it hasn't let me down, but I'm far from an expert and maybe it's just because the posties so far have been good sorts - no idea, but it has worked so far.

All the ones I inherited were 1st class stamps so they are 1st class still however old they are and dont lose value but gain it, might be worth stacking those lol.

Got some NGC grading results back today, some of the good ones;

To continue my 1977 collection, this beauty;

and this coin was picked up as a bullion coin and after an ncs clean turned out to be a proof and get a PF69UC  

Few more Undated 20p's back with a selection of grades, upto an MS63.

And another cheap pickup for the 1977 collection, non-ncs graded coin and graded PF69UC so very happy with that.

 

[matrawr]

To keep in these things or put the Crown in capsule and the two others in flips?

[adamthetaller]

Latest forum purchase arrived today from @Robjw - a trio of trios, 2018/19 Oriental border Britannias and 2018 Dragons.

Hopefully I can resist the shiny things on here until the end of the month... The stack is growing a bit quicker than it's supposed to be! 😳

A Holland Dubbele Wapenstuiver.  Thank you very much to @FFkook for this coin, as well as for some of the history behind it! 🇳🇱

This coin is from 1780 is made of 0.583 silver, and the 2 S stands for two Stuivers.  Back then the Netherlands were a republic of seven provinces, and each provence made their own double stuiver with the shield of the province (similar to the lion dollars).  This one is from Holland, which was the largest and wealthiest province.
