Hi all, as the title of this thread says.... another WOW! month.
It was going slow this month but todays noodling was GREAT.
Firstly I managed to get £70.00 of 50p's, not much I hear you say. Last week I got £200.00 in one day but only had 1 commemorative in there.
Today (morning) out of the £70.00 there were 2 bags (40 coins) where every 50p was a commemorative this included 22 Olympic Games from 2011 (21 different). obviously dumping an inheritence or something.

I went back again in the afternoon & the lady behind the counter said to me ... Sorry but we haven't had anything else paid in since you were in here last, but I have these that I forgot to show you this morning, I don't know if you would like them.
I had a look & YES! . I'll take the lot I said.

I do love having days like this, it looks like I will have to buy some more chocolates for the ladies in the bank.
Thanks, Merv

Wow, you hit jackpot! Congratulations!

Taking a break from swapping for a while, but still interested in pre 1799 Spanish coins, I will make time for that!

Looking for pre 1783 coins

A lot of good commemoratives! Well done! ⚽

2 days after the WOW!!! , I get 2 bags (£20.00) in 50p's from my buy bank and get another 3 Olympic Games. These 3 were missing from the other day so I'm thinking the same person paid them in.
