@The50pC Any idea why the description differs so much? Other than 6th Feb obviously - surely you would expect the rest to have the same statement. Just curious!

A departure from my usual collection but here are some examples of Kuna from Republika Hrvatska (Croatia) that I was recently gifted.

The currency will be replaced by the Euro on 1st January 2023 so I was very happy to add these to my collection!

@The50pC I am only really interested in the obverse, not a HP fan and I don’t think these first designs look good at all! Haven’t decided if I’ll bother yet…

[The Royal Mint @RoyalMintUK]

We are proud to unveil the first official coin portrait of King Charles III which has been designed by Martin Jennings FRSS and personally approved by His Majesty.

The first coins to feature the effigy are part of a memorial collection for Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

@The50pC Nope, I don’t usually collect these (other than ones I actually strike at the RM) but will have a look!

I’ve been building my collection of Platinum Jubilee coins. What others should I add? There is the Falklands 50p I have on pre-order from Pobjoy

@ChangeChecker 2021 HG Wells £2

[Goodwin Coins @CoinsGoodwin]

@The50pC Just ordered this too. The design looks great

My 10-year-old son collects unusual 50p coins but I rarely pay for anything in cash these days. To keep his collection going, I buy collectible 50ps from eBay and pretend I got given them in my change. Makes it more exciting for him.

It’s been a while since I have updated my collection, here are some of my latest arrivals:

[Goodwin Coins @CoinsGoodwin]

@The50pC How do you find out about the editions like these that are only available on the island of release? Is there a seller you use that always puts them up or something?

[Goodwin Coins @CoinsGoodwin]

@NECoins This is such a great set!

[Goodwin Coins @CoinsGoodwin]

Another new addition to my collection. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s 10th wedding anniversary, commemorated by Gibraltar on this beautiful 50p coin!

[Goodwin Coins @CoinsGoodwin]

Thrilled to add this to my collection today! Not only do I love the Olympics, but I really like the design of this coin and will be adding it alongside last years 2020 single dated coin. #TeamGB

@ChangeChecker As a biologist having worked in genetics, it obviously has to be the 2020 Rosalind Franklin! Great to see recognition for her work (although it would have been nice to see the coin in circulation)

[Goodwin Coins @CoinsGoodwin]

Thrilled to add these coins to my collection today! Many thanks to @ChangeChecker for the prize! #changechecker #maryanning #coins

[Goodwin Coins @CoinsGoodwin]

@ChangeChecker Yay! Thank you!
