Just another swing by to say hi, hope you're all doing OK. for those of you who dont know me I was mega into british colonial coins and still have a large chunk of my collection left including A lot of IPS coins.
Still won't part with my Gibraltar or British Trade dollar coins though. I think they'll always stay with me :)

Thanks,
hope you’re still bagging those coins there seems to have been some interesting stuff whilst I’ve stopped collecting been issued. Of course I still pick up the Gibraltar coins. Although I don’t have last set yet.
Collection is growing, but slowly due to swaps not happening so often.
As for Gibraltar:-Even my local shop does not seem to have any. I actually have 358 out of a possible listed 901, so not to bad, I suppose
Quote: "oggy"Heyo Mark! After being lost in the South Pacific, I'm back to collecting! Currently trying to photograph and catalogue my collection.
How's life?

Quote: "Mark240590"how’s your token collecting ?
I think I only have a handful of them left now :(
Just starting to build a "war chest" of funds. I think this Covid-19 pandemic is making some people unload there collections.
aye, it’s something I’ve noticed too. Although it’s been a year or so since I last looked at selling coins off I’m quite surprised with the value jump in some of them.

Hope all is well with you and family. Stay safe out there. It is good to hear from you. Take care of your self.
yours daryl
hey Darryl,
hope you and yours are keeping well. Strange times isn’t it. We shielded because of my arthritis and my sons cerebral palsy it was decided by the NHS we should stay home for 3 months. It was surreal. Things are slowly getting back to near normal. Although, this week my kids are off because a girl in My eldest’s class tested positive.
Quote: "Camerinvs"Hey Mark,
Good to hear from you! I think you will recognize this coin:
I will message you at some point. I think I lost your email address when my institution switched from Novell to Gmail.
Hope to read more of your insights on this forum...
Hey Guy !
ahh yeah, I miss my old Countermarked coins really. They’re so unique it really interested me. I don’t want to fall back down this rabbit hole though since I now have quite the collection of soviet cameras and lenses too. It seems I’m just a collector by nature haha. The excuse I give to my wife is I use all of them. And that’s true I guess.
