    Another coin for me this week. I haven't paid attention to what coins I've been potting either but I'll definitely be checking when the pot has been opened!
    #27 £2016 in 2016 = £763.61

    #42 £2 Savers Club = £160

    *Savers Club not included in overall 2016 savings until the tin is opened and my estimates have been confirmed later in the year.
  • Over the last few weeks I've not had a chance to get on here so have lost count of what I've put in. Considering this last week alone I've put in 10 coins I am going to estimate at 20 coins which I think is quite an underestimate. One of this weeks was a Florence Nightingale one.

    I cant wait to get back to work and handle all those coins that are not mine, that said i'm still looking out for Peter Rabbit 50p in my till and of course the new £5 notes and get used to the £1 coins before they change in late 2017...

    How annoying is it to count loads of money that isn't yours, its amazing how many notes a cash machine can hold

    :-)

    I got the Peter Rabbit 50p then sold it to my hubby for 50p then found out how much it was worth.

    Hi Potters,

    I have just been sent this email and thought I would share it with you all,

    https://blog.changechecker.org/2016/10/25/the-2015-navy-2-is-now-one-of-the-rarest-coins-ever/

    The NAVY £2 coin is apparently quite rare due to the amount that were minted into circulation.

    How many of us has one or more in our pots I wonder...

    A chart which is not up to date with the above information but quite good to see how they all compare?
    HAVE YOU GOT THEM ALL?

    Thanks for posting this. I have 2 out of the 4 commonwealth coins. Does anyone have all 4?

    Afternoon,


    Hope everyone is okay? Thanks Gem-gem for running this thread this year :)


    I'm going to count up what I saved this year, this weekend. I'm counting up my 20p's and my sealed pot too.

    Hi Purplemumof2,
    What are you going to be doing with the coins?

    Even though I've reached my target, the pot is not being opened yet, so I've potted another 3. I've also not noticed what coins I have been potting, so i'm looking forward to hopefully finding a few good ones.

    Fingers crossed for you.

    They go towards the food shop for Christmas so we can have treats we wouldn't usually buy.

    What's everyone else doing with theirs?
