I know it's low sequential serial numbers and all that gubbins, but I can't see the value of this.

Will it sell?

I suspect it will, it's a feverous, boom market - people are paying silly money, for money, because the next guy will pay more.

Just don't be the guy holding "ten fivers [b]worth[/b] twenty grand" when the inevitable crash happens and they're worth £5 again, because it will happen. Only the very best condition notes with very low numbers will be worth more than their face value in 6 months, hell, it could be 2 weeks and it won't be anything like that, it'll be decades before they're very valuable again. - there are far too many 'special' fivers in circulation and everyone by now knows they're worth more.

Your money would be better spent on a wheelbarrow

We had a lady in the shop with a solid colour £2 coin rather than the usual 2 tone.
She didn't want it so we swapped it for a normal one.
We found one on ebay and eagerly watched to see how much it sold for.
It reached the stratospheric price of £1.99.

Ironically we got given an old 50p in change at the weekend - the first ever widespread commemorative coin in Britain celebrating joining the EEC in 1973 with 9 hands clasped to represent peace, support and strength.

That's all that ****ed now. We might frame it, it's only worth £2.
