I'm not sure in which part (or country) of the UK you are living, but I have visited two coin shops in London...

Bacchus2, according to the profile, is in Banbridge, which is in Northern Ireland (one of the four countries making the United Kingdom).

I may find it difficult to believe that there are no coin shops in Northern Ireland, but that would not make it any less true.

Smart to check the profile! I do remember a coin shop in Dublin, Ireland, although it wasn't overwhelming and mostly about stamps. It's been a while since I've been to Dublin. It's not overseas, but still in a different country. I haven't traveled a lot to Northern Ireland, so I can't say much. Google gives 2 results on coin dealers in Belfast, but Street View shows that these most likely are some private people running things from their homes.

Yes, I'm in Northern Ireland and there are no coin shops here at all. There used to be a couple of antique shops that kept a few coins but they were more for decoration than anything. There used to be one in Dublin but when the owner died it closed down. Actually I got a lot of his Indian coin stock when it was liquidated by his heirs. There are a few stalls at markets that keep a few coins but thats it. Tyeres nothing that you would actually call a proper coin shop on the whole island that I know of.
