I like the Lion, the Witch and The Wardrobe. The original animated film is one of my favourites from my childhood, so the scene on the coin, for me at least, is really iconic. Nice haul!

I wish the royal mint would do a robin hood theme, I really think that collectors would love it. Maid Marian, Robin Hood, Prince John, Frier Tuck, Little John, Will Scarlet, King Richard, The Sheriff of Nottingham, that would be some 50p coin collection. :)

Absolutely agree! I think just going over all of the old british legends would make me happy. Theres so much history to go through and I like collections within a story to, well... collect.

You should get into silver 1oz coins mate. I think you'd like them. So many design. Very nice quality. Good investment also.

Cheers for showcasing your latest purchases Christopher. I’m pleased to say that as a direct result of watching this video, I’m now in much less trouble with my wife over the amount I spend on coins! 😂

The silver proof for lion witch and wardrobe looks great, the frosted trees look spot on to reflect the wintery conditions in the story..

My favorites thus far are probably the Mary Seacole £5 (because of the subject matter--didn't know anything about her, and it was interesting to read about her accomplishments) and “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” 50p--I like the colorized strike in the acrylic block (I like the vintage feel of the "Lucy and Mr Tumnus" scene).

I like the Star Wars and Dame Shirley Bassey coins. May The Force Be With You.

The frosted proofs really make the designs pop!

Great purchase’s. The Narnia coin definitely needed the lion & wardrobe one. The Mary Seacole was a fantastic read👌👍

Glad to see the additions to your collection. I’ve personally lost interest in collecting non-circulation coins. So many are now being produced that it’s become expensive to keep up. And the coins just don’t seem “real” if they don’t circulate. They feel more like meaningless tokens just designed to keep people spending their money. I’m happy for those that enjoy collecting them, but I’m no longer buying into them. I am a little surprised you haven’t published a video yet showing the new definitive designs… either here or on the Brittania Coin Company channel. That seems like the biggest coin news of the year so far. I figured the inclusion of animals on the definitive designs would be particularly good news to you! 🙂

The lunar coin would look great with a bit of colour on it imo.

Tightening the case is a great idea. Righty tighty, lefty loosy. Always a LotR fan, great coin.

11:48 lol

o i thought this was the new coins coming out. i wasnt sure if i wanted to see what they look like yet. Also i had a dream last night i found a £2 coin . it was that lord person on it, without the writing of the two pounds on the back. it said something else. was really excited!!

Tolkien and Star Wars for me 👏

I love how the English adopt brand names for describing similar things - like Hoovering for vacuuming. Perspex is another - it acrylic and there are other brand names for it like Oroglass or Plexiglas. Its chemical name is Polymethyl Methacrylate. I too don't think much of the LWW coin but I like the Star Wars one. Pity it isn't going to be circulated. Here in Australia some of our nicest "coins" are never circulated which I think disqualifies them from being coins even if they have the potential to be spent. To me they become a token that can't lose value.

I'm not into coins at all, but love your presenting style.

Hi

Some good coins there, although my pockets aren't as deep to be able to buy that lot 😮. Still waiting for my Seymour Unicorn to gallop(trot) home as I ordered from a site other than RM

Christophers financial advisor is unwell Lol 🤗Some nice coins Don't think the the Mary seacole coin is very flattering nearly A Greco look .. But probably better in person.

I got most of those, in BUNC. Have to disagree about the CS Lewis though, I definitely prefer the coloured version. Any news about the next Star Wars release? I'd expect next year.

I'm jealous of the silver proof Tolkien. Sold out now. I have a couple of silver proof coins, on eBay, the silver proofs don't seem to be much higher priced than normal ones. Any ideas why this is. I totally agree, the colour pops on a £2 😊

Got myself 2 Tolkien. Love his stories

Great coins 😊 have you ever worked out what percentage of your income you spend on coins per month/year? Also you you keep a running total of your collections worth apart from your numista page? 😊

Tolkien 🔥🔥🔥

I don't know how you can keep all those unopened Royal Mint packages, I have to open them as soon as they arrive!

Imagine finding a corrupted error coin and having to remove it.

I really do enjoy the music legends set

I really enjoyed this vid. I thought that all those coins were just lovely. Are they expensive to buy? They aren’t face value, surely? Thank you.

Tolkien's One Coin To Rule Them All😆

I don't no much about coins why i been watching your videos to learn more but this star wars coin in the box how do you get that where do u have to go to buy it and how much is it to buy. mite sound like silly question lol. Would appreciate someones time 🙏🏻👍🏻

I’m from the us I wish I can have the starwars pound coin

Really not a fan of the coloured coins, and its a shame they do not produce the silver proofs in non colour with many of these new coins, I really wanted a silver proof flying scotsman £2 but had to opt for a base metal bunc version as they were struck without colour. Im not sure if its because Ive never seen one with the naked eye but the quality of the colouring looks like a cheap chinese replica from aliexpress as if its been printed on, badly..

Why don't they make a Cliff Richard Coin?

He is already minted lol 👍

It seems to me that the Royal Mint makes a few too many commemorative coins, I do like the coloured coins, and treat mine very carefully, although I can't help wondering how resilient the colour really is?

Australia has coloured coins in general circulation (particularly $2) and they are lasting well so I expect the Royal Mint would use similar processes as our mint does.

If I get any with Charlie boy on I will throw them in the river

Christopher I don't understand why an American movie is on a British coin. I really don't agree with Disney and the royal mint doing this.

First 👍
