Seen one forsale on gumtree a bit if a ness for £20 must be a copy bent this ibe forsale
Spent my entire childhood checking my pennies, all kids did if I recall.
These coins were not to be minted because of the 1933 and 1934 (Gold Reserve Act) of the United States. Meaning that the United States bought all gold , silver and copper on the stock exchange
Love the animation
Going from 240 to 100 pence per £ is certainly one of the biggest rip-offs in history
first
Milk spots, scuffs, scratches, dings, dents, chips, knocks, fingerprints, overpriced coins and bullion, appalling customer service, ring any bells yet???
Brilliant! 👍🏻
Im lucky enough to own one.
excellent!
excellent!
How do you look after your coin cabinets? Do you use beeswax or leave them alone? Central heating can cause the wood to dry out and warp.
Hi Simon. The beautiful wooden cabinets in the Museum were made in the 1970s by the cabinet maker Tim Swann. They have not been treated with beeswax but the Museum is kept at a constant temperature and humidity so the risk of warping to the wood is very low.
@@royalmintmuseum718 Thanks for the reply. I have come across many mahogany cabinets including Swann. Your cabinets remains very pale in colour, I don't know if this is camera lighting, choice of wood, finishing or something else? Mahogany is reddish brown and tend to go dark over time possibly due to exposure to UV lights.
@@royalmintmuseum718 Wood breathes and dries out over time. Also look at refeshing the surface appearance. The finger oils left on the trays over the years might needed treating. Worth seeking expert advice.
I would love to try out the 33 yard candle race. What is the music that is used?
