"50ps and £2 commemorative coins.
Only if it’s in my change/come across them.
I have some old pennies and international currency as well.

That is the problem so many that do not get released into circulation. I think it was around 18 50ps last year and no £2 since 2016 great fire of london.
I am quite a geek and collect all the UK currency.
The AZ 10ps are going to be worth a fortune in a few years time. |

"50ps. Got loads but only the ones i think may be worth more than 50p"
Loads worth more than face value now. I got a Kew for £35 a couple of months ago.
A fair few of the Olympics worth a few quid n same with the potters |

I’ve got albums for £2, 50p and Olympic 50p as well but missing the most valuable ones. I’ve seen fake kews on eBay selling for silly money but would sooner find them in my change. That said I did buy some potters in presentation packs at the post office. Anyone got swaps? |

"Are there any coin collectors here?
What coins do you collect etc ? "
I have thousands, I started collecting when I was a lad stopped for a long time then started again, mostly British but will collect any coin, I have a full collection of shillings from each of the UK mints of England, Wales and Scotland one for every year from 1940 upto decimal with just a few gaps, between seventy five and a hundred 50p's varying designs and hundreds of old pennies including a mint condition uncirculated 1856 penny taken from the roof joists of an old house we demolished (a brand new penny was put in the joists of any new build for luck) it had to be only touched by the builder so a circulated one was no good. |

What are you looking for?
I have a few spares but mainly swapping for AZ 10p, got 18/19 in albums but also doing more of the albums as these are such low minted the cost will just rocket.
Kew fakes unfortunately are so common but I’ve had both real and fake and yiu can instantly tell the fake, obviously the weight is a huge giveaway but just the general feel is so wrong. |
