"Now, if you are a coin collector, you've spotted it straight away" I'm fairly proud of myself to say that this was the case :)

It’s the shine that gives it away

I have 18 Kew Gardens 50ps, I bought 4 direct from the mint and apart from one I bought in 2003 the others back in 2009 /10 but I have checked them all against the sets from the mint and I see no difference but I will have to check them again just to make sure, just as a pint of interest being a collector does not make you an expert. A good video all the same keep up the good work, it keeps us on our tows. Les

I was fortunate enough 3 years ago to buy 5 Kews as an investment. Paid 1k. After watching your review of a 1968 coin collectors magazine I'm convinced it's bullion rather than circulating coins.

You're right. I don't think any 50p's are going to go up in price. 👍

I'm Lucky to have 10 Genuine Kews, 2 2019 restrike and 1 copy. Thanks for sharing Paul 😊

You're welcome Stephen 👍

A genuine Kew Gardens also usually has a slightly worn edge at the bottom left as you look at the obverse. I only own 2 Kews, a 2019 re-strike, and an original 2009 that was found in a hunt.

I got a genuine Kew in my change years ago. I now have a substantial collection and My Kew "Copy" coin only says "copy" without RIB under the Queens head. I use it as a gap filler because I try for 2 of each coin so I can display the Monarchs Head! PS. I thought RIB stood for, "Rigid Inflatable Boat"! Must be the SCUBA diver in me 🐟!

Fabulous video CP . Really informative and helpful 😊👍. There are far too many fakes around these days .

Hi may I ask why you don't sell your coins that you already do have?

How many 2019 're strikes were minted?

thank you

To a coin collector Trevor the fakes are obvious but a newbie to our hobby they could easily be duped. So thanks for this great video making things so clear for new collectors.

Hey i have this coin it looks just as your genuine one does - my only issue is it feels slightly different in comparison to other 50 ps is this normal like it doesnt feel the right metal i have weighed its the correct weight dont want to be collecting a fake one

Great video mate. 🇬🇧👍🏻

It doesn’t bear thinking about how many people have been duped into believing that they have bought a genuine Kew Gardens to later find out it was a fake. Fab video Paul Great stuff 👍🏻
