    Another 5 coins potted today as it is almost payday and I had some cash left in my purse so swapped at work.

    That's a great idea - swap any money that you have left at the end of the month into £2 coins - even if it is one £2 coin, a great way of saving money. 
    Well done StokieBecks. 👏

    Another couple of plain £2 coins - where are all the pretties?! I may cheat & go swap £10 in plain for a note then to £2 coins again. Is that cheating?!

    I wouldn't say so. I would call that using your initiative😀

  • Well, it looks like £2 coins are back in Cornwall.  This month, I've managed 9 coins so I've added another £18 to my total.  In town this morning for a haircut and bit of banking at the post office.  Hopefully collect at least another one  :)

    Hi Claremylove, 
    I know that you don't have target for the year but I am awarding you a 🎖as you had a good run of £2 coins this month.
    Fingers crossed that you find many more coins in Cornwall.
