No hurry AJ. You will still be able to pay them into bank for years ahead.
My HSBC still takes 2 shillings & 1 shillings
I know, I'm just fuming at the hours, nay weeks and months spent getting bags of money from various banks to get them all

But AJ, if you have been collecting them for the design, did you ever intend to spend them? You might be able to find a numismatist desperate for the coins you have once the £1 coin ceases to be legal tender.What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare0

Yes, we've collected them for the designs, no we were going to keep them in our collection. It's shocking :eek: the amount of money we have locked away here because they are part of or are a collection. Some we have a few of, like the 50p pieces. We have the sets x 3 plus spares.
I am ashamed to say that DH is now collecting the £5 notes, please don't ask

Just realised I forgot to look at the serial nos of the last couple of new £5 notes I've had to see if they were those valuable ones the artist did something to.
I only spent one in Ts this morning.0
