    I'm glad it's not just me struggling to find them! I was over the moon today when I finally got another of the jammy things... had to swap them for pound coins to get it off my hubby though... he wasn't handing it over without a fight. Think he's enjoying me scrounging around for them! :rotfl:

    Haven't disappeared guys - just haven't seen any of the little beauties for a few days. I may just have to open my pot so I can remember what they look like <sniff>

    One more for me today. As I have a sealed tin I can't see how many I have, but as I was bored earlier I got out the digi scales....
    1x £2 coin weighs 12g
    1x sealed tin similar to the one I have the coins in weighs 108g
    My sealed tin weighs 1578g

    1578g - 108g = 1470g

    1470/12 = 122.5

    So I think I have about 122 coins so far, plus todays find.

    Did I mention that I've been bored??
