British Coin Collection - by Colin Barker
Welcome to my Collection of Coins
Having had a keen interest in British Coins since I was a child, I started collecting coins many years ago at 8 years of age.
I remember playing cards with my dear Nans neighbour, but I became more interested in looking at the dates of their pennies and half pennies. My coin collection grew and I spent hours inspecting them in an old knife & fork box!!
My coin interest faded when I started work and girlfriends became more interesting!
Fast forward 40+ years and I have owned www.stonegatecarpets.co.uk since 1990, specialising in traditional & contemporary Stair Runners and Rugs.
I started attending coin fayres and auctions 15 years ago, collecting Half Crowns and then other denominations mainly from the period between 1660 - 1972. Once again my collection grew and so I decided to open my coin website using my photography skills....also my hobby!
My coins and chatting with other collectors gives me many hours of pleasure, I hope that you enjoy browsing my site and please feel free to contact me should you have any questions or queries.
I will ALWAYS give an honest opinion.
