    I have no idea why TH-cam recommended me this video because I have no interest in collecting coins, but I just sat and watched you sort through the entire bag. Maybe TH-cam knows me better than I know myself 🤔

    Congratulations on the fried egg! When I saw, Canvey on Sea, I thought, no it can’t be. I grew up in Essex, and 30 years ago, Canvey Island was considered, shall we say, a little rough. It seems some genius estate agent has managed to alter the image to such an extent, the post office is now called Canvey on Sea. Fabulous 😂😂

    I think the fried egg error is harder to find than the Jane Austen. The Jane Austen NIFC was meant for collectors and not for circulation while the fried egg error is 100% unintended. I also enjoy error coins way more than NIFCs.

    I notice on the obverse a similar thing has happened with the gold, not so much as the reverse tho.
    Are they worth much ?
    I know rarity doesn't always mean 'loadsa money ' , I just wondered about errors like that.
    Britannia is my favourite reverse, the Romans used her image on reverse of some of their British coins , imo we should always have a coin with her on it's reverse, :)

    Yesterday, I saw a thing pop up on my news feed about a guy that had found a mis-stamped £2 coin and it was on ebay for £400. I had a look and it's the golden guinea. I thought " I have a coin tin with £1 and £2 coins in it - about £500, I wonder if I can find anything that is collectible - i'm no expert and I don't know that much about coins ). Anyway, I saw his coin, went through my 100 or so £2 coins and a Shakespeare - comedies, a rugby, a darwin and................... the same golden guinea coin with the same mis-stamping errors as the guy selling on ebay for £400. His coin looks like it's been dropped into a tumble-dryer with a bag of nuts and bolts, but mine is significantly better condition. Is the guy selling the coin on ebay deluded? Am I deluded, or do I have something worth something?

  • @dieseldragon6756
    @dieseldragon6756 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Ooh, some nice finds there chap! I got into coin hunting in early 2019, but of course the events of the following year sort of killed that off and I never got back into it! 😷🚫🙃
    Have to say I'm envious of the speed at which you're able to work through a bag! I tended to lay mine out in a 5x4 grid (Though I was doing circulated 50ps) but I was quite slow checking and categorising them, and didn't really look out for errors either.
    In my case age might have something to do with it too, though. _[Gestures at walking frame 😋]_
    Talking of errors, that _Fried Egg_ was a very nice find! I admit I'd have probably run right past it without even spotting it! I think I still have _one_ unopened £20,- bag around somewhere, I might have to work through that one _very_ carefully! 😇
    Closest I think I've had to an _error_ was a 2015 Britannia where the outer ring had been compromised and had started to oxidise, so I returned it to circulation. Often regret it (Think that was the only '15 Britannia I ever had) but at the end of the day I think I once unwittingly passed-on either a _Kew_ or a _Presidency of the EU_ at some point in life, so that sort of stuff happens. 🎰😇
    Also: You might've converted me away from sealed bags: They used to be all I ever looked at on the assumption coin centres would never check coins but bags dropped off at the Post Office probably had been. If I do another hunt in the future I'll have to give Post Office bags a spin! 📯💰👍

    In 1956/57 it am about 5yo, a friend of my farther, had worked in the UK gas industry all his life gave me 3p bit. [suspect you can guess wats coming], being a bright lad I noted the difference to the other 3p bit coins. Non of us realised how significant an Edward 8th coin was. But in order to keep it safe I hid it in my bedroom, I forgot about it. What stays in a 5yo mind. We move a year or two later, and as far as I know the coin is still there. Go ahead you can weep now.
