    Hello,
    Can I please join.
    I have been collecting £2 coins (and the banking them) for two years now.
    For Christmas, my husband bought me a Boofle 'pot of pennies' money box. It can hold £1000 worth of £2.00 coins. At the end of January I had £80.00 in there (I weighed the pot plus 5 x£2 coins so that I can track how many I have without trying to get them out.
    I am also trying to collect one of every different type of £2.00 coins. Is anyone else collecting the different types as well?

    Welcome Gem-Gem!

    My hiccup of yesterday was rectified earlier today. I now have enough £2 coins to pay into the bank tomorrow. What a relief!

    There is a forgotten, nay almost forbidden word which means more to me than any other. That word is England.

    Gem Gem It was you that gave me the idea!!
    I've just weighed my son's empty pot then 5 x £2 and then my pot.
    Judging by the weight I think I have got £134 in there!
    Have you noticed a difference in weight in the single coins?
    Woo hoo:j
