NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 17918 Posts	Posted 04/02/2014 03:47 am I was in a pub with a lady friend on Saturday. She pulled some change out of her purse, and I spotted an unfamiliar £2 coin among it. I asked her if I could change it, and she let me have it for face value - it was a 1998 Jersey £2. Never had one before. My Trade List: https://goccf.com/t/194596 My Wants List: https://goccf.com/t/191710 Report this Post to the Staff
Red Valued Member United Kingdom 252 Posts	Posted 04/02/2014 04:47 am That is the one thing I find REALLY hard to get. I do have a couple of the IOM Racing Car £2's but nothing else. On-Topic... Was scammed by a self-service checkout that spat me a 10 Groszy instead of a 5p yesterday. I had the last laugh tho, as the £2 it spat at me was a Commonwealth Games (England) one :D Report this Post to the Staff

Actually it was from my brother - I was settling up with him for some shopping and he gave it to me from his pocket change (he's not a coin collector). Don't know where he got it from!
