My Whole Coin Collection!!! 4 Years Of Christopher Collects!!!

[@roisinclark6394]

I’ve been having a pretty hard time of it recently plus a full on week so was a little worried how I’d spend my time this evening and thought to myself well at least I’ll have my 15 mins of Christopher only to realise I have a glorious three quarters in an hour! Thank you, you have been the calm in the storm for me recently and it is much appreciated.

[@chrisb.h4605]

Hope things get better for you...

[@Bazzabilo]

Really hope things picked up and you’re doing great now

[@jk_0047]

Keep your head down, weather the storm, and when things get better, you’ll be able to raise your head and enjoy the sun on your face.

[@Paul_Wright]

There is a difference between collecting and hoarding you can judge for yourself and balance that against your conscience for people who are collecting and do not have your affluence. This is a simple point and not an attack on you or your impressive and highly valuable collection

[@dmcresins]

Love your honesty, Christopher. I have learnt so much from you. The people who comment, "You hoard all the nice coins," are just disillusioned. They have probably been trying to find a Kew Gardens for years and never have. They see you have found 2-3? Over 4 + years and think they're hard done buy. Lol. The time you have spent going through BAGS of coins and explaining every interesting detail to look out for is pretty amazing. If you worked a job at £2 per hour, you still would have earned enough to buy more Kews at Ebay prices. Fantastic collection, Sir.

[@nathanscoincollection4397]

Congrats for being around for four years. Your content is amazing.

[@zachsworldcoinchallenge]

Incredible collection. I watched the video from start to finish, as I have for all your videos for years. I’m glad you stuck up for yourself will preempting any boneheads giving you grief for doing what a coin collector does; collect coins. The vastness of your collection speaks so highly of your passion for coin collecting and anyone that says anything negative towards another’s passion clearly has a sad life. Keep up the amazing work and can’t wait to see the next video next year!

[@ChrisDeverouxe-bq5gw]

NO...there is a difference between a collector & a selfish greedy little boy ...he DOES NOT NEED SO many books full of the SAME COINS. !!!

[@Fish-ey3ds]

I’ve been waiting a whole year for this!

[@garywalker7715]

What a collection , What a channel , 4 years and counting , What a person interesting and funny , with 62 k viewers , well done , and a Dream job you deserve .

[@salishseaquest7952]

Keep on collecting, Christopher. I thought I would skip around but I watched the whole video from start to finish. Whilst watching, I realized that I've been watching your coin collecting for at least 3+ years now. I collect vicariously through you, Christopher, as I am in the U.S. and don't have access to your UK finds. Please keep on collecting and saving. (I laughed when you mentioned the 2008 50p count!)

[@smiffy7890]

I appreciate the massive effort you’ve put into making this collection video and you have undoubtedly some fantastic coins. You don’t need to justify what you decide to keep, it’s your collection. In just 4 years it’s impressive!! I hope you get your FA CUP soon. Great stuff Christopher 👍🏻

[@highpath4776]

Mother in law collected the £1 variants, I could not really see why, think we spent them , might have a few in a box somewhere, they are heavy when in bags.

[@slartibartfast2649]

I was 10 when the Olympic games happened in London. Those commemorative 50p pieces were everywhere. I remember regularly sorting through my mum's purse and asking her if I could keep the "special" ones. I stored them in a box somewhere and only just recently tracked it down again after watching your videos. It turns out I have the offside, archery, basketball, horse jumping and a couple more.

[@paulmcleod8370]

Wow what a collection - I have been watching you for a couple of years - my collection pales into insignificance compared to yours. I used to collect coins namely shillings in the early 70’s but gave up after a couple of months. Then in 2016 I started collecting £2 and 50ps - I soon gave up on the £2’s to concentrate on 50p’s. I love collecting coins find it therapeutic and fun. Keep up the good work Christopher ! 😊

[@firesurfer]

For people who are confused. Bunk means brilliant uncirculated. I found the best source for new unc coins is vending machines in a gov't facility. They get so much use, that the employee filling the machines must get coins from the bank. Find a high use machine that still takes coins. Use the largest note the machine will take and buy the cheapest item. Often the change will be in all coin. This is not for mass collecting, but for casual collecting. Try not to travel distances to get to a machine. If you are nearby, this works.

[@AllotmentDiggers]

Well if they don't like you Christopher they would hate me, I have what you have and more But then again I've had 50 years of collecting under my belt....

[@michellelee3423]

Wow! What a great video! Thank you for taking the time to film your collection. My husband and myself have loved watching your videos for the last few years. No, we didn't skip any of the video. As always, you were friendly and enjoyable to watch. Looking forward to your next videos. Thank you again, Michelle and Tony

[@neilthehermit4655]

I am deeply impressed by not only the size and width of your collection,but the time and dedication needed to arrange it all to show in a video. I would love to see your chest of oddities and also the territries would make another great video.- However I don't expect it anytime soon as I imagine it must have taken a good 30 to 50 hours of sorting and arranging before completing the video ( not including editing !).

[@DrachmaNumismaticTranslations]

Great video, Christopher, and an excellent collection! I happen to be a collector of English coins myself. I love your channel! I'm from Barcelona but used to live in London and Newcastle. I am a translator and copywriter specialising in numismatics. Keep on collecting and sharing it with us, please. Take care.

[@Shiretops]

Even though you are right to do what you choose.. I do think there is no need to be keeping 80 plus coins when they could help another person collect the same coins.. nobody need to keep that amount of the same coins.

[@chrisbudesa]

80 common coins today will be common In 100 years.

[@tomwilliams6523]

I recently got a bit carried away on eBay and have amassed quite a volume of world coins and have had to force myself to stop and do a bit of organisation before I end up swimming in them, I understand why you wouldn't want to do a whole world coin collection but I would be very interested to see how you'd go about organising yours when you get around to it.

[@koinking1665]

woooo i’ve been looking forward too watching this for ages!!!

[@mrmrssnappy9920]

Congrats on four year’s on KZbin🎉👏 hope to watch you for another four year’s. Yes I did watch video al the way through👌👍

[@55AE]

Really been looking forward to this video and it was well worth the wait great video. I think the title of the channel says it all Christopher COLLECTS it's your money and your collection as long as your happy with it ignore the negative comments. Awesome collection some stunning designs especially the silver proof coins they really show off the designs on the coins. The 2020 £1 coin is in circulation had a few now.

[@jonathanwoodrow8975]

Your collection is growing so much I'm going to have to watch this in installments 😂

[@Pixiearmstrong9526]

Really Amazing collection Christopher, thanks for sharing.

[@alfiejones7429]

What a impressive and diverse collection! 😄 👍 , don’t worry about the people who blame you for keeping coins as a coin collector (as coin collectors that’s what we tend to do 😂) , there just wish they had your success and collection 😂

[@degenerate703]

Genuine question what’s the need to keep all of them and not just the best 1 or 3 you find seems a little over the top

[@rowan6704]

@@degenerate703 Wouldn't you rather have 10 Kews than 1? Or 4 sets of Olympics rather than just 1? 🤣

[@DaveS-coins]

Very interesting and informative video. I have been collecting for nearly a year and have a modest collection of over 100 circulated and BU coins. I also watch your coin hunts and other videos. Keep up the good work.

[@ImagesOfBurscough]

Brilliant video and you have an amazing collection, thanks for showing us all

Amazing collection Christopher, Some beautiful items, ranging for the coins and sets you’ve bought, through to all the coins you’ve found in your hunts, especially some of the more unusual or NIFC ones, Very impressive and you’ve encouraged me to do something similar with my collection, Watch this space 😁😉

You have a lot of coins . My question How much do you pay the security guard to look after them

I started watching just before the 3 year collection video. Can’t believe it’s been a year (I still don’t collect coins 😂). Love the videos! Congratulations on the milestone.

Hi Christopher, Fantastic collection and Amazing video. Well done

[@neilo3476]

Great intro and explanation (Sadly shouldn't be needed). Dare I say I am a less than novice collector but love to watch your videos - you have a very calming influence

[@justinsimmonds5674]

Very impressive collection Christopher. 37:10 Second coin from the right on the third row is a shield 50p.

[@zaiddar77]

The £5 at 11:28 actually has a difference to the original as well. The original is milled, whereas the variety with the postcards has an edge inscription which reads "SERVE YOU ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE". You haven't "got problems", Christopher 😂!

[@teltwosheds2972]

Awesome! I won't make a smarky comment cos I so enjoy following you 😆

Wonderful video, thank you for all the hard work that must have taken to put that together.

[@dalewalker3942]

Just one question, some of your books have empty spaces, but you seam to have the coins in the white cardboard packets, why are the books not completed if possible? Not in to coin collection myself, but I can’t stop watching, willing you to find that next Kew, in a therapeutic fashion. And I had no idea there was so many different design until I started viewing your channel.

[@rmd4209]

Hi there, Very nice coin collection, where do you get the plastic coin protectors? Can you get them separately?

I'd never seen a £25 coin or some of the others. I gave up trying to collect the 10p's & just stick to 50p's & £2 coins now. I normally pick up £2k+ each week but been laid up for the last few weeks. I'm collecting for my daughter & granddaughter any tips you can give would be helpful. 👍 Thanks

[@nadinecitric-williams3370]

Wow I really enjoyed that - hat a collection. Thank you so much for sharing. Did I miss the proof V?

[@andrebomtempo7893]

Where do I find these capsules you use for the 50p coins? The round ones with the white "frame" around? I can only find the heptagon shaped ones, but I think the bigger round ones with the frame look much nicer.

[@simonamer9210]

After finding out about errors do you go back and check all the coins from older books. Like when the Kitchener mule was discovered did you excitedly go through all your books etc hoping that some you had in books or flips etc might have one?

So there are people coming to a coin collecting channel and getting upset because the collector has collected coins? Some people need to stop holding in their farts. They are travelling up their spines and turning their brains to poop. A lovely collection Christopher, and don't let the idiots get you down I still think you have this master plan to get enough Ironsides to raise the value LOL

[@mjanovec]

You can set up chapters in your video using the time stamps you put in your video description. You just need the first time stamp to be 0:00. You could put “0:00 Introduction” in your video description (as your first time stamp) and you would have chapters automatically created.

Stunning collection well done Christopher 👏

[@karlgilmour2011]

Great video. Only 2 suggestions...... I get the Christopher (ironside) thing but I'd probably knock them down to 100 and stop collecting them further. It has to stop somewhere. Secondly, I'd keep a certain number of Shakespeare sets and then stop collecting them further. Yes, they still just about get a little bit more than FV but that will end... Otherwise, any number you keep of the others is fully justified imo.

[@kildrummer]

Well done Christopher! At this rate you'll be able to cash your collection in & retire before you're 40! You've got a big birthday this year haven't you!
