This came from a coin dealer who was in London (England) until a few days ago.

 

A friend of his in London bought a nice lot of these postal orders,& kept one out for the coin dealer to give to me when he got home.

 

The British Field Post Office-issued postal orders are very sought after by collectors - as they are quite scarce.

James,

  That note is extremely common,as a huge consignment was sold by the British Ministry of Defence to Richard Lobel,who flooded the numismatic marketplace with them some years ago.

 

Yes,even I have an example in my own collection.

 

As for swapping coins,I can't as the cost of posting them from here in New Zealand is prohibitive anyway.

 

Aidan.
