Probably about £15 worth of total catalogue value here, so a £5 buy for this lot quite OK. Report this Post to the Staff

mrv Valued Member United Kingdom 258 Posts	Posted 05/11/2019 2:07 pm Thanks Kopper Ken and Palouche, yes they all from one seller and yes car boots are brilliant? But I'm really struggling to get there early enough to pick up coins. I was working in the North East region this week and as usual I went looking for coins. I found a antique centre that was full of cabinets of junk. I found a bag of coins and notes for £25. The highlight were a: 1974 200 zlotys Poland silver coin 1969 Kennedy half dollar 1940 25 cents netherlands 31 euros in coins 2009 hawaii quarter Report this Post to the Staff
