  1. Very True!! I'm still new to the banknotes side of things atm, trying to find a way of storing them better, But the Bloody German ones are a pig because of there size :/ Out of curiosity, When did the American's start putting the shredded coloured paper into there notes? I'll get some Snaps of the Notes and Post em too.
  2. The Quality of the Image on the notes themselves, they look very thick, and looking at images of these notes, the signatures are hand written where as on the notes I have they are printed

  4. Good Evening, I need some help with some banknotes, I came across these after inheriting my Late Fathers Banknotes. He believed that these were not Genuine, I've had a look at some images of the questionable banknotes online and also believed that these are not Genuine Images are Available upon requests.

  11. Good Morning & Happy New Year, I found a two pound coin in my change last year and I recently reviewed it & I noticed that it has two pound On Both sides, so i don't know whether this is an error or a dud, I've contacted the Royal Mint, But have not had a reply yet. Would you guys be able to help?
  12. Good Evening And Happy Christmas To All, Long Time No See People, Hope All Are Enjoying The Festive Period And Spending Time With Loved Ones Telling Them How Wonderful Our Collections Are Now To My Reason I have noticed on all of my Swedish Coins have a "Crowned Head" or "St Erik's Head". Is this a Mintmark? and What mint does it signify? Some sites are suggesting it's a Mintmark For Stockholm, but would like to ask you guys. Thanks, And Have A Lovely Christmas And New Year.

  22. This is the reply i've had from the BP Archive Department:I’ve had a look through the archives and have found a snippet of information in a BP Car Wash Manual dated approximately 1971. In it there is information on all sorts of things to do with the car washes on BP sites and it gives a little bit of information on Freeclean. Freeclean was a promotion running during the late 60s and early 70s. The offer was a free wash with every 4 or 6 gallons of petrol purchased (this was still being sorted in 1971 so I cannot tell you which one it was). The petrol station would give out a printed voucher for every gallon bought and then the customer could exchange 4 or 6 vouchers for one Freeclean token. This could be then inserted into the dual coin acceptor to obtain a free wash. Alternatively the person would spend 20p on a wash. Unfortunately I don’t have further information on how the promotion went or any images of the use of the tokens, however I would say that the item is more than likely one of these.
  23. I've had another reply from BP, it is going to be fowarded to there "Archive" Deptartment
  24. Hey ccg, yeah, i was thinking that too but you never with half this stuff i collect lol, i mean i have a WW2 token that was stuck to a french 2 Francs, but it is in good nick, luckerly i had stuff too unstick both of them
