We have lots of great articles on coin collecting and the history of coins. Use our <a href="https://coinsnotebook.com/coinparade-database-of-coins/">Database of Coins</a> to research popular coins such as sovereigns, two-pounds or 50 pence’s. We have over a 1,500 pages of information.<br /> <br /> Most of our content is about British coins, but we have articles on American, Canadian, Australian and several other countries. We occasionally write about investments, metal detecting and cryptocurrencies like bitcoin. Please note we do not buy or sell coins.<br /> <br /> coinsnotebook.com is authored by Les Kendall. I built this site because I am interested in coin collecting, and as a professional Freelance Software Developer I have been lucky enough to write software for several professional Coin and bullion dealers.<br /> <br /> By trade, I am a professional .NET, Xamarin, NodeJS, PHP and WordPress software developer, and owner of <a href="https://robotbooker.com">RobotBooker Ltd</a>, a small software company in England which develops Room Booking and Reservation Systems. I also have published apps to the Apple Store for the iPhone and the Microsoft Store for Windows.<br /> <br /> Facebook page: <a href="https://fb.me/CoinParade" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">fb.me/CoinParade</a><br /> <br /> Please follow me on Twitter:<br /> <br /> Coin Collecting:<br /> <a class="twitter-follow-button" href="https://twitter.com/CoinParade" data-show-count="true" data-size="medium">Follow @CoinParade</a><br /> <script>// <!></script><br /> My technical muses:<br /> <a class="twitter-follow-button" href="https://twitter.com/LesKendall" data-show-count="true" data-size="medium">Follow @LesKendall</a><br /> <script>// <!></script><br /> <br /> Email me at: Les AT coinsnotebook.com.<br /> <br /> <em><strong>See my Software/Business Development Blog at <a href="https://www.makeitspendit.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">makeITspendIT.com</a></strong></em><br /> <br /> <strong>Notes about Content</strong><br /> <br /> All the content here is original and copyright.

There is sometimes a discrepancy or dispute about the actual figures and in those cases I've tried to use what is generally acknowledged as the most authentic. There is also a difference between what is allowed to be minted and how many are actually issued.<br /> <br /> Mintage of gold coins such as sovereigns can be confusing even to mints, as they have in the past melted worn coins down and re-minted them, and then counted that as a new coin. Whatever, no one really knows how many specimens of a given coin are actually <em>still</em> in existence and it's down to the experience of dealers and collectors to ascertain the real rarity and value of that coin.<br /> <br /> <b>Acknowledgement</b><br /> <br /> My great-nephew, Max Hughes, is a professional coin dealer at <a href="https://mjhughescoins.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">M J Hughes Coins</a>.
