Hello! I am Christopher Collects and this is my channel! I mainly focus on circulated coins and upload regular hunts where we look for coins with more than face value and also to complete collection sets!
My schedule is:
Monday - £2 hunt
Tuesday - £50p hunt
Wednesday - POBox, Unhuntables & Sundries
Thursday - £2 hunt
Friday - 50p hunt
Saturday - 10p hunt with Q&A
Sunday - Worldwide hunt
There are times where I will upload between and in addition to this schedule when I have a video or a special coin to show you.
I have a discord server you can join and get involved in the conversation by following this link: discord.gg/z2x8kg84Hj
You can also write to my PO Box: Christopher Collects, PO Box 4377, Swindon, SN4 4RL

I have olympic hockey 50 p

I noticed that tinny 2019 as you sifted through!
Hi Christopher, love your channel. Just wondering why you didn't have a place for the definitive Atlantic Salmon 50p but you have space in your book for the definitive £2 coins coins after the Great fire of London. Happy hunting 😁
M,i happy birthday get coins
All those bags were searched before but they missed the olympic
A little kinder on the wallet not keeping as many finds from this hunt . The ✨would be the Olympic 🏐 Great stuff Christopher 👍🏻
First
Definitely not 😂😂😂
Second ❤
First 👍
6:00 if a fake its also 2011 like the other fake. they really made that fake good
1:54 also i love when you find fake coins. wonder how they make them
maybe more people are making them now because things are getting more expensive
I have mine
ive had a few fake coins from the self check outs at supermarkets, just put them in there and re-use them.
I was born and brought up in the UK, but I emigrated to the USA in 2002 when the Royal Mint went a little crazy with Commemoratives, I have managed to build up a nice collection of UK coins, one reason I like UK coins is because they really don't make many of them compared to the USA commemoratives. I've given up asking Christopher ANY questions on here, because he is apparently way too snobby to bother answering any of them, which is a real shame. I also don't think he bothers with collecting NIFCs because of the very disparaging way he talks about them! Of course I can't be sure, because he doesn't ever respond!
How much is the rotation error worth 2007 2 pound

Onus maybe on the customer receiving the fake coin. But are you prepared to check £500 of £2 coins, before you leave the bank. Also the bank is guilty of passing fake £2 to customer. Banks have a duty of care and should have better detection for fake coins. Also if you keep fake coins, you reduce the amount in circulation. The Mint are supposed to change the coin, once a certain situation / percentage is reached.
✨Rotation✨takes the win 😊 Always nice to complete a set 💀🗡️🎭 though 😊 Great stuff Christopher 👍🏻
You mean you don't have your own private RM entrance and assigned docent? Don't they know a hypernerd when they see one? ;-)
Found a fake £2 about five weeks ago 😢
Glue it back in the wrong way up and you got yourself a rotation error 😊
I have to thank Jude S for getting a coin for me, and I've heard from a reliable source that there were only 495 visitors on the SOTD. That means if each took the full allowance of 3 coins, you are looking at a maximum number of 1,485. As there was a coach party and a few veterans in attendance it maybe likely some only got the one. This STOD coin will be very sought after in my opinion.
I have a triathlon 50p. It’s not as mint as the 1 in this video. Is it worth more than face value? And worth hanging onto??
Keep them midland bank bags lol they are collected these days esp banks no longer operating
I like your videos. Since I am American, I don't know what the different heads of the queen look like. Would it be possible to do a quick show of these different appearances of the queen? Thanks.
So the onus (yes I had to Google how to spell it) is on you NOT to receive a fake coin or banknote. It seems like a massive game of pass the parcel where nobody wants to be in possession of the fake when the music stops. 😱How many small shops have put aside a dodgy looking coin or banknote to pass on to some little old granny or grandad because they can't take the loss. 😭
Are you sitting down? It looks to me like those Midland bags date back to 1992-1996. Feel free to research it further, but I cannot see any reason why it would be past 1996
HAPPY HUNTING ALL KIND REGARDS KIERAN 😊
Wtf 😂
loadsa comedies!
Enjoy these hunts, being from the US, I enjoy that the UK has lots of commems in circulation. Question, are the coins in the UK distributed from the mint in the same bags that banks use, or are they distributed differently?
Love all your videos Sir
i have a real ring error, florence nightingale 2 pound with a hole smaller than it should be, left the mint with no middle. also, sent your birthday gift today.
You should be able to get some cream for that from the chemist.
@@finbar481 what do you mean, cream for what.
Is finding a rotation error a recent thing or was there pre-decimal coins that have rotation errors? What is the earliest rotation found? I'm not thinking Roman or similar, but say from Victoria onwards. xxJane 💰🌼
When doing an edge hunt, could you show the coins perpendicular to the camera (upright). It's almost impossible to read them at an angle. What value would you place on the broken coin?
The banks can't have measures in place to detect fake coins then
All what they do is take bags and then put it on the scales, if it weighs the same then they accept it. You would be there all day checking coins for fakes. I will add though, it seems to be the post office more so than the banks.
First
no
Just stick it back together with glue
Why would he do that
Loose ring ? No comment. 🤔🫣
😮😂😂😂
Ooooh Matron! 😳
Bro is breaking too many coins 💀✋
First 👍
Myself and my son Kaiden sent you some 2000 coins last year and my son asked me the other day did I know your current total. So our question to you is what's your current total? And how far are to to completing your challenge?. Thank you Dayna and Kaiden
1:16 dont look very friendly. but they took the 50p shape for their own or they had the coin made for them by britain maybe
One must get the cardboard tat 😅
I found a 50p with girl guides on, is this a rare one?
Happy Birthday Christopher 🎉🎉 still got to get round to sending you the 2000 coins I’ve been keeping for you. Will do now I’ve been prompted with the special day😊
At 10:47, was that another fake that you missed? The obverse looked fake to me. Did anyone else notice that too?
maybe. is that the last shiny one?
