Happy New Year- Coin Count for 2014



Today I finally completed my coin count for 2014.  It was a good year, I amassed a large number of coins.  This is what I found laying in the streets of Europe:

As you can see, the UK coin count is down by 5 since the previous year, and there are very few non-UK coins.  I was too busy to search for coins, sadly.  Still, the £5 find bumped up amounts a bit, and I found a bit more silver and less copper - except for 2 pence pieces, which I consider very significant - they are so big that few are lost and fewer found, except by yours truly!

And as you can see from the lateness of this blog, I am behind in general.  I'll try to improve, but can't promise anything - to much going on right now!

But I'll do my best.

Happy 2015 Everyone!!!!
