    Wow, that’s a fabulous banking session GemGem - all back in circulation to be recaptured :rotfl:. My 3 weeks in Oz dented my collecting and they seem a rare find lately so I’m behind where I usually am by May! But I continue to be eagle-eyed to secure every last one that crosses my path :o

    Claremylove - yes, I was pleased with my total so far. But I will say that it is mainly down to hubby and quizzes

    Two more gained today from hubby.

    Doesn't matter where they come from - they all count. My hubby is also a good £2 coin hunter on my behalf :), and the petty cash tins at work are often a good source of the little beauties! Got two yesterday from Mr T so those have been safely potted.

    Did a boot fair this morning. Potted seven £2 coins including a Shakespeare tragedy, the first for me.

    No £2 coins since 27/4/19 so the total is still £24.

  • I'm still here but I haven't seen a £2 coin for ages! Even paying for shopping with notes hasn't resulted in any :( Dx
