During the 60s and early 70s “Check Your Change” sold 1.75 million copies, making it the biggest selling book about coins ever. Forty-seven years later and there are now some decimal coins that are considerably scarcer than others. Rumours about rare British coins frequently circulate and occasionally public hype, word of mouth and outrageously false tabloid reporting garners false or misleading information. This book puts it all straight and reveals the true modern British coinage rarities. Honest and down to earth.
Every British decimal coin is illustrated in full colour and at actual size, so it’s an excellent companion to any members of the public, people with a passing interest or serious collectors that want to try to obtain a representative collection of British decimal coinage.
