[QUOTE="PaddyB, post: 1602880, member: 40017"]I am all for the UK coins! Best book, which will cover pretty much all you need unless you go off into tokens, is the Spinks "Coins of England & The United Kingdom" which is issued each year. It covers coins minted or generally used in England from about 150BC to date. As a new one is issued each year (to take account of modern issues, as well as updates on prices and information on older ones) it should be possible to pick up an older copy very cheaply. Copper/Bronze farthings are a good low cost starting point, with the milled series running from 1672 to 1956. Prior to that there are a few hammered coppers, and then back into the very small Silver farthings of the medieval period. I am always happy to discuss British coins so PM me if you have queries or you want help locating specifics. Paddy[/QUOTE]
