Uk~ Interesting Find From The Circulation In The Uk~

Found this coin error in my change about 20 years ago, had it confirmed that it's a clipped coin made In the production process.
A dealer offered me £10 for it early 2000.

I haven't had anything interesting in change for a while, but a few days ago I bought something for £1.98 from a local supermarket and put a £2 coin in the self-service till. I was quite surprised to get two 1979 pennies back. One was in typical brown average circulated condition and the other was GEF with quite a bit of mint lustre. Pre-1992 bronze pennies are by no means rare, but getting two together these days is quite unusual.

This 2017 5p must be an error I think - the other side looks perfectly genuine, Struck Through Grease?



also found my first 2022 UK coin (they have been out for a few weeks, but first I got in change)

I've had two 2021 10p coins in change in the past few days - the first I've had. One was quite well-circulated so they have obviously been around for a while.

Had a Commonwealth Games 50p and a Platinum Jubilee 50p in my change today - felt like a good omen since I started my new job today. I can't remember the last time before this that I got a commemorative in my change by chance, so to have two appear today really felt uplifting. For them to actually be "interesting" commemoratives (ie not a common Potter, Paddington or Sherlock) was a huge bonus as well. I tried going back immediately after to complete another transaction at the place I got my PJ 50p, but it seems that I had literally had the last 50p in the till!

Fantastic!

Yikes!
