Excellent coins! Thanks for sharing!

 

When in London the other day (I will talk more about it in another thread), I found an Isle of Man pound in my change.

 

I was just going through my small collection of foreign coins and came across this one that I've had for years. It's not as nice as some of the others posted, but still a nice old coin. Sorry about the repeat pic of the obverse.

nice coins, i have at least 1 copy of each guernsey definitive issue coins dating from 1830 i double up to the current £2 coin. do you have both versions of the scalloped edge 3d piece? 1 has a thick flan and one has a thin flan

 

Sounds like a nice set moneyer, please show us some pics.

jersye

heres one from jersey

 

this is the 1966 ten shilling coin which commemorated the 900th anniversary of the battle of hastings............

 

i find gurnsey jersey and isle of man stuff in change quite often. not the one i put the pic up of though

 

it is quite4 common to find different coins in your change in the uk, the best i have found is a swaziland lilangeni which is the same size and colour as a pound coin.

 

the most unusual change find i have had is a counter stamped £2 coin with RIRA stamped in to it

 

i have this beauty from the island of alderney it is a £1 coin commemorating the end of the war ineurope and is in proof condition

 

The pound is like the euro in that way. It's multinational. You can get, the UK, Jersey, Guernsey, Man and Gibraltar, in Europe and also the Falklands and some other islands.

 

st helena and ascension islands £1 coins have shown up as well.

 

Thank you for sharing all the coins!

Here is an 1861 1/13th Shilling from Jersey.

 

My last purchase.
1 new penny 1971.

 

I find very interesting coin. I've searched it during the last 3 years. It's a 4-doubles coin (1956). Mintage is rather low: 240000 pcs. Grade: Brilliant Uncirculated, I suppose. Am I right?

 

My new purchase. I've got it today for 1 $ 80 cents.
5 new pence 1968, copper-nickel, mintage - 800000 pcs. The single release only.

 

I like cows on coins. :yes:
