I opened a shiny charizard when I was around 6 in a card store, never been happier in my life. Then someone stole it from me about an hour later. Never saw it again :(

What a difference five years makes, not just for the channel and your confidence growing, but also the amount of decent coins found compared to today 2024.

My memory keeps telling me I have had a Kew gardens in my hand a year or so ago. I remember looking at it, being a stamp collector and coins in my youth, I always look at the unusual ones, but being out of it for a while I did not know what this was worth. To top it off I took my mum down to the Bournemouth air show on Sunday. I saw her tossing a 2 pound coin into a charity box, I saw it was a commonwealth games one, sods law is telling me it was a NI but I will never Know.

Well I would be lying if I said that I wasn't jealous! Amazing pulls, I'm still yet to find a kew. Maybe one day I'll find one. Congrats

What a lovely moment when you find Kew Gardens. I hope you still have and cherish that coin.

I remember years ago I had a Kew gardens 50p, I remember looking at it not realising the rarity then, and then proceeded to insert into the coffee machine at work for a 20p cup of coffee, I did the same with an undated 20p, it was the 1st coin I had when they bought the new backs out and I remember saying, "oh look they no longer have dates on" the 2 most expensive cups of coffee I have ever bought!

I currently help out for my dad who is a football coach by working in the tuck shop selling teas, coffees and sweets to the players. Most things are priced at 50p so I tend to get a few rare ones I can swap out! My motivation to work!

Hi,there. These are bags straight from the mint,Because the banks clearing house was bring in new stock of 2019 coins and needed to get rid of old stock. That's what I was told by the bank clerk, she said people was telling other people about this and she couldn't see what the fuss was all about. I said the bag a lone was worth money with bank of England stamped on it. The coins sell for ten pound each but a bag unopened from the Bank of England, got to be double or treble the values. Does your records show when you got them 2016, Yes they arrived October and some in the January 2017 and where have they been in one of our security storage facilities straight from the mint in Wales. G. . A small God. Goofus. Allegedly.
