First in a While!!! £1,000 £2 Coin Hunt [Book 1] 

Christopher Collects yep. I noticed the ridiculously inflated values they put on common coins

Love the work buddy your videos are mesmerising don’t worry about the prices they fluctuate like the market much love THE GRIM BLEEPER

Christopher Collects how much is the Rio hand over worth thanks in advance

We're do you get your coins

What's your camera set up?

That's a safe bet 🤣

ive sold em on ebay for 30 quid ,even more common go for 4 quid,strange coin,only non decimals reach such values

Lol rare

mcfcguvnors well you bumped someone there's only 2 coins worth any money and that is Kew Gardens that's worth 80 quid then there the 1983 2p error coin sold in the martini set its worth a grand there is no other coin worth over a tenner if there is 7 million coins out there it is worthless but if there's only 200,000 then it's worth a good bit

Minus the tax.... wonder how many times that has been paid on them by now.

Hahaha! I guess not a lot of people say it haha got to be mindful could be some youngsters watching don't want to set a bad example 🤣

Oh wow that's awesome! I'll cross my fingers for you 🤞🤞

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed!

Haha youtube is all knowing read your subconscious haha if you do then join the discord I'd love to see what you get

Christopher Collects I will do my friend, I subbed to you and when I get home I’m gonna watch all your other coin vids haha 👍🏽

Haha one of us one of us!

Awesome glad you enjoyed! Definitely have a look you might just find a rare one!

Oh wow I can imagine! What a haul haha I wonder where the closest toll bridge is to me... I'm going to check on Indeed haha 🤣

kew gardens, everyones looking for that. if you have the 1992-1993 50p your dad's literally 'quids in.'

Yes!

Thanks! I like finding them too always that momentary though of could this be northern Ireland haha!

Yes, well I'm one of these people. As a window cleaner, I get passed a lot of coins and I hate being given £2 coins....for some strange reason, I hate them and normally give them away in change asap. I've noticed many times some strange looking coins but had absolutely no idea that I could be giving away better than face value coins. That of course changes as of tomorrow, when I'll be taking a lot more interest in what is passed on to me. I have a £2 coin now, with a skull and the words ShakeSpear, maybe this is where I'll start paying more attention.

It's strange o'clock haha

Christopher Collects :D :D

Now am doing it got work in 5 hours.

Cliff Mooney the cycle never ends

@@PortRoyale Same here. 2.27 to be exact

2015 Britannia is 4th 1st is Commonwealth NI 2nd is Commonwealth Wales and third is 2015 Navy WW1 Centenery

Thank you! 😁👍

Oh that's a neat idea!

I find alot of cash when I'm out and about, i give them to my son, he's got a good Foreign coin collection thats worth quite a lot, as I'm in London the home of immigration I find alot of European stuff not euros, they just seem to get ditched found a Bulgarian coin on a bench in a playground last week it has the madora rider on it I think its called, from 1990s fleabay says its worth £1.30 which isn't bad for nothing. Hes very proud of his collection although I found most of it, nice coins from as far as Mexico and Ghana, to poland and Ukraine.

Haha thanks always nice to find a commonwealth games one!

Christopher Collects Oh indeed..

You should be on T.V.! then we could turn you off!!😉

How much is the price for the a set of war medals King George v omn 1914_1918 first World War 1

Thank you! 😁👍

Thank you good luck with your hunts!

Thanks! I hope you find the ones your after. You can join the discord and show us your collection I'd love to see them

@@ChristopherCollects apart from our English coins I like to collect the baliwick coins too. I need one 50p Jemima puddleduck can't seem to find in my change🤔 I found a 10p with fishes about a month ago in my change from my local chippy I lost it but then last week found it again hidden in the corner of my handbag! Is there any coins I should be looking out for more rarer in the £2s I have more or less the same coins as you just not as many 😂

The writing on the edge being the other way around and missing dots are quite common to find sorry

🤣

mine too

Yes we are where are you from?

The USA.

Thank you I'm glad you enjoy 😁

Wow very nice you should join the discord chat an show us your finds!

Surly that's cheating customers lol 🤣😂 definitely a perk of the job.

Nah not if it's just one till if your searching all coins that come into the branch that would be a bit different haha

Bonnie Nash I actually rarely give out £2 coins, I mainly have customers come in to exchange bags for cash

In my more recent videos I've been putting the values in. I avoided it to begin with because people always seemed to get funny with me talking about values

Ni 25 wales 12 england 10 scotland 9 hope tht helps u

Christopher collects is there any way you can mail to list what coins that are worth value and how where to sell them I have a few random coins around would be cool to know about the rare ones thanks

I know sometimes fate aligns haha!

Got a Brunel portrait last night in change, my first £2 since I began looking for them a couple of weeks back :-)

Very nice start there! Good luck with more finds!

Thank you Christopher, would like my next find to be an Olympic or Commonwealth, The Magna Carta is one of my favs also so I would be happy with that :-)

Steve O' 71 rear two pound coins

Thank you!!

Oh nice one such a nice coin to pull!

Bethany Barratt b

Oh good luck with that then! I'm only after one but it's alluded me for too long now haha I will find it though!

Wow that's amazing! I can imagine how dirty they were haha!

Ever heard of gloves???

Knowledge man ~ Ever heard of doing something once and not anticipating a relative factor? It's not like I had done it before...or since.

@@ChristopherCollects nice one

Dana

Haha I've figures how to fix that now still a bit of a newbie 🤣

i kind off like it

Richie Wisbey yes I'm seen that too.

Richie Wisbey I think it might be u have poster a better picture of it in my discord if you want to come and check

Wow nice one! Thanks I was chuffed to find it!

Oh wow nice finds! I'll cross my fingers for you I see the Shakespeare's tragedies quite often

Haha nice one! The writing on the rim being the other way around is quite common to find I'm sorry to tell you

Christopher Collects thanks for sharing that , is that with all coins or just that £2 coin?

Christopher Collects on my £1 2016 coin the Queen's crown goes off the silver and onto the gold part of the coin.

The edge inscription is applied first to a planchet and then the design is struck. So, there is no such thing as upside down writing, the orientation of the edge is completely random. I have no idea which moron on eBay came out with the myth of upside down writing but it means that if you are interested in error coins, you have to wade through this drivel first.

@@stephensilverstein629 ddwdwdwesqd

It looked like a 1 metal error but on closer inspection it's just a fake sadly

They look so strange really stick out haha!

Thanks that means a lot! 😁

Fair enough each to their own. How do you get them in pristine condition from shops though?

true am not trying to say anything bad as that is what my grandad told me to do go bank to bank but never did. and sometimes do find a nice crisp clean one in change every now and then but it a lot rare to find one. need to find the date of when the new coin comes out then go to bank get a better chance of getting a nice shiny new one fresh from the press. have you been to royal mint experience yet.

@@giggity4670 you kinda just messed up there you will never get one without a scratch (the still rub together in the till) causing minor ones

It's all based on mintage figures as you said. Yes Penny Blacks are not cheap haha but they are especially special being the first adhesive postage stamp I guess

A rare coin has a value of say £5 but the SAME Coin in un-circulated condition will often [referred to as Mint Condition] be worth £1000, it is like any collectible item, from a tin toy, artwork or a plain old second hand car, value is all to do with condition. Some collectors will never collect anything other than Mint or Proof Coins, proof coins are selected by the Mint [Gov manufacturer] from the un-circulated coins off the press and then they are boxed and sold on to the public via an offering in the press for 10 x face value or more. Hope that helps. This guy is just looking at the bottom end of the market hoping to make a couple of bucks, but trust me here, all the money is in the Mint/Proof Coins.

@@apartmentswales True...thanks for the information although most of it I've heard many times. You certainly seem to know your stuff...my point about stamps rings true though...most people think a Penny Black is worth a lot of money and that simple isn't true of all Penny Blacks. Many very poor examples which are HEAVILY franked can be bought very cheaply. Others which are 'clean' franking wise are worth considerably more. Sometimes with these'newer'coins I get the feeling a market is almost created by word of mouth and then it gathers speed when really there's not much substance to the market at all. people are pretty gullible about these things. I'm constantly amazed by the way 'Royal Wedding' coins are pushed as being a great investment when in reality millions are sold and are pretty worthless...witness Charles&Dianna in 1982...a coin dealer i spoke to said he is offered dozens by punters who believe they are worth a fortune because they are 'uncirculated' but of course they simple aren't.

A lot are very common but commonwealth games isn't

Thanks!

Oh wow very nice!

That's a good shout I put approx values on my newer videos though

The total value is £1,000

Sorry that's very common to find on all £2s it's just the way the coins are minted there's a 50/50 chance of it being one way or another

ok thanks

Thanks!

Omg you are the first RU-vidr that has ever replied to me

@@cringykida.k.aleiaschultz6241 Chris loves his subs and still always replies to us

Mr Nightmare jr you just got another subscriber

A fake one sadly

Christopher Collects aah,ok thanks.

zakky boi qq

I did sell them on eBay but the fees have changed for me which puts me off using eBay going forwards so I am looking at alternatives

Cookie Kimberley

I have no idea sorry

Oh that sounds interesting

It depends on what date if it is 1983 or 1973 it is worth some think but if not it is worth 2p your welcome

Jace Deakin mines 1975 but I have loads of 1973 1972 and 1971 NEWPENCE coins too . We found a box full of them that were left over in a house clearance.

Jace Deakin as far as I've researched only the 1983 NEWPENCE from the set is worth 400+ but we will see. Something is only worth the amount someone wishes to spend on it.......

Jace Deakin Miss struck coins are worth way more than face value with any date on! I got £25 for brand new 2p that was messed up!

Thank you! 😁👍

Glad to be of help 😁👍

Shakespeare skull is only a little more than face value 1st WW Army is only face value the navy one is more though

Sorry but of a rookie editor ive gotten better though

Christopher Collects no worries mate, great video, very entertaining!

The words can be either way up that's quite common. The rare slavery one has a smooth surface with a mint mark on it

Haha I've sorted out the audio now I know what I was doing wrong

Face value I'm afraid

I used to sell them before eBay fees got silly. I keep an eye on eBay auctions to stay in the loop though

ebay

Ah getting a bird seems like too much of a commitment cleaning out the cage, feeding them buying bird seed and keeping newspapers for the bottom tray I'm good with my coins thanks!

Oh no! If they were frazzles that would be worth it though

Transformer snacks unfortunately lol!

Hmm still tasty haha they are my wife's favourite crisps

Mine too :) I mix the beef and cheese n onion together.

Daisy Lea I've had the 2 types peter rabbit,Roger Bannister,issac Newton,2WW with planes ,Kew gardens.A tower high barbed wired.And loads more but like you i spent them..Lols

🤣

Thank you!😁

Oh yes try this one: www.changechecker.org/find-a-coin.aspx I quite like American coin hunting so much history and old coins still in circulation and to be able to find silver is amazing!

I'm not sure I hope you enjoyed though

@Jimmi K i never found out dude...i am still trying to climb out of the rabbit hole! I haven't been to work for 2 months!!! (help)

Yes most bank will do it for you

@@ChristopherCollects No you need to hold an account with them, before they will do it

Haha glad you enjoyed!

Haha thanks don't talk about Pokemon I get so tempted to buy the cards as I like collecting things haha 🤣

Haha remember the team rocket ones lol I got ancient mew the day my grandma passed probs to calm me before the news. Not a geek mate it was just our time of collecting. Keep up the good videos mate. Bank won’t let me do this as I’m not self employed. Still caught them all though ;) collecting all Christmas Isle of Man pobjoys now. Brilliant hobby, made me respect money more. Respect ✊

Shall we trycollecting pokemon now then haha I’ll keep you updated lol

Mctrippzy the team rocket ones are after my time haha I had the originals and jungle my little brother has them now haha. I'm sorry to hear that loss is never easy. Shame your bank won't do it I'd switch to one that would haha. Best of luck collecting!

Christopher Collects sweet man I’m 28 this month never heard of jungle pokemon. Tell your brother to keep them safe, very nice of you that. And same to you my mate it’s a nice feeling collecting. Love it bro got boatymcboatface this morning. Keep the vids up pal. 👍👍👍👌✌️

Wow your almost there! Keep going it is out there haha!

I have a Wales commonwealth £2 coin if you're interested?

What would you like for it ?

Yea not as much as mint condition but a few are worth more than face value

Haha i find the same with Pokemon card opening I've not had Pokemon cards since the 90s but I swear I can smell that fresh card smell watching the videos very odd haha 🤣

There's been a big thing about it. It's just sensationalist news not to be trusted sorry

I'm sorry come over to the discord and you can show me the ones your getting that I need seen so many people getting the A-Z 10ps I'm very jealous haha

Yea I get a few of then some less obvious than others

Thank you 😁👍they are a bit more than face value but not much sadly
