    A total of 14 coins (£28) for June. I have added them to my total. All from various sources - my son offered me 2 the other night which I have duly swapped this morning! One Dickens coin amongst them, all the rest plain.
    Nellie75, that is a good total for June. 👏

    Banked 5 x £2 so that I could maximise the amount saved in my Start to Save account ( £100 par month ).

    Received two plain £2 coins in my change - Sainsbob's self service till. 

    £174 in total. 
    13 coins to 100% of target.

    Been offline for a couple of months due my dad passing away in May, but I've still been collecting.  So have added a further 9 gold coins to the post bringing my total up to a massive £48  :#.  This is looking like my worst year of saving the gold bullion.  Even my corner shop hasn't had any!

    Massive condolences ... our mam died end February and its so tough to motivate yourself to get back into the world, especially if you've been their carer. I slowed right down once all the immediate chaos was sorted. Nowt wrong with taking time away from the world. Take care of yourself

    Also, if you click on the thread link when on an iPad the link is deleted. The new site functionality isnt what it was!
