Beautiful Coins

I have decided to start this blog about coins. I have been a collector for about 30 years, ever since I was a youngster. It all started off when I used to go around to my Grandad's. He would go to the bank and buy bag loads of coins. He would then systematically go through them all, and take out any which were in lovely condition, or any rare ones. Also at the time there used to be a lot of silver coins in circulation. He would buy them and scrap them in bulk.

I would usually get his cast-offs. Some of them have proved to be extremely collectable. I have also been a Metal Detectorist since the early 1980's and have collected a lot of coins in this way too. I will share some of this fantastic coins with you, as well as talk you through some of the rarer ones in my collection.

Thanks for reading.

Steve
