About My Coin Collection
I have been collecting coins for 43 years, I started collecting anything, 25 years ago I narrowed my search to British & US. 20 years ago I narrowed to British, 18 years ago I narrowed to hammered coinage of Brittania and Hibernia.
Favorite Coin Series
changes monthly but will always have an infinity to Stephen and the Anarchy and to Mary
Favorite Coin from Your Collection
Cork "City of Refuge" 1647 shilling and a P & M groat engraved by the apprentice
Keven,
Although I live in Wellington.I still remain a fiercely loyal native of Wanganui.
I have found most reigns in English coins prior to Queen Elizabeth I elusive.
As for Scots coins,I have been lucky in getting what has come my way,even though they are generally very hard to find nowadays.
I used to be able to spend 200 Dollars in auctions,but I can't do that anymore.
I've been concentrating on British Commonwealth banknotes lately,but I still pick up the odd British Commonwealth coin & postal order from time to time.
please send me ur mailing address and mail id, i will send a beautiful coin or unc banknote from india (coin mailing no:1), i am planning to send more such coin mailings. After u receive it if u are happy with it , u can send me any coin from ur country. please join the club, i will initiate the exchange, please respond, no risk on your side, if u think that sending a single coin or note is not worthwhile then we could decide on increasing the number of coins and unc banknotes, so that our friendship will blossom. This is the initiative of the group called coins for friends join it, make me your friend. i like to have atleast 100 coin mailings to 100 different friends throughout the world by the end of this year
Kevin i would love it if you posted a few pics of these coins, just back from a local coins show , the only irish was a john as lord and a few coppers. my recent fortune included a edward VI irish shilling , here in canada we rarely see any of the "big" irish hammered coins
