The £5 is a good find, especially at that price- well done!

​Actually, you got them for about half their face value:

£5 + £1 + 10/- + 10/- +£1 = £8

Once I was at a coin fair and there were mixed euros in a world coin box for 20p each.

Funny how you all like the £5 banknote, whereas I prefer the centre one.

Now, that gives me an idea. Lets start a campaign to have a 50pence banknote printed, even if it's a one-off to commemorate something.
I do not want it made of that plastic stuff like todays UK banknotes.
What are the chances? Nought to minus millions!!!!

Banknotes now proudly displayed in my office, next to my football trophies. I am a football referee.
