It's the stuff I know I have that I can't find that is annoying the daylights out of me at present :dash1:

I've got mine catalogued in a spreadsheet but unfortunately where I have indicated a coin should have been filed hasn't necessarily equated to where it actually is!

Despite my dodgy filing in the past I have managed to track down 3 coins this morning that I had the posse looking for so that's at least a positive. Tip of the iceberg though I suspect, particularly with some of the error coins. Looks like I have photographed them and then not put them back where I got them from ... oh, dear :-/

As for finding misplaced items.... today my mother was visiting from Canberra and she handed over a Khartoum siege note that I had not seen since about 1984. It had been mixed in with her with her stuff as she had moved from Sydney to Victoria and then to Canberra. A box full of English year sets and other coins had turned up about 2 years ago and is now in my coin room. Many a time I had lamented losing that note but the box of English stuff I had totally forgotten about for 30 plus years. Now I've still to find where I stashed 5X 1923 Halfpennies, a decent 1932 florin and a few other coins (pretty sure I know the hidy hole but I have a robe build above it that I'll need to dismantle).

be careful where you hide stuff
a local jeweller used to hide his stock in the ceiling of his house & have his small son help him with it
turns out - the house has been a mr fluffy - so the jewellery was stored in with that stuff - and also sold in the store as well
it was in the newspaper

p.gee

I hate to think how many might sercome to asbestosis from something that I can't help but think people new about. I had a relative die a horrible death from working with asbestos when he was a young man. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

I can't help on prices but I've been watch ebay for a while now as I have some coins to sell. It seems to me that the prices this year have been down considerably. Mind you, it could be just the coins I've been watching.

robbiegal

Yes p.gee
In my work i have known a few people who had the asbestosis
Horrific disease
A female work mate died a few years ago from it - they reckoned it was from a house she lived in as a kid
Canbera is waiting/ getting ready for the epidemic to surface over the next 20 years .... sadly
Lucklily our house isnt one (lived in it for 17 yrs bought it 8 years ago)
I did try to buy a house around the corner but the hubby didnt like it
It got pulled down recently, turned out to be a mr fluffy house
