After decades of buying, and then doing nothing, and then buying again - my Queen Elizabeth II decimal album is finally complete.

I started in the year 2000, which seems a very, very long time ago.

I attempted to use the coin that circulated as much as possible. This usually meant buying the mint set and using the standard coins from this, and then getting the other normal circulating coin from a mint roll, mint bag, circulation, PNC or anywhere where it could be found.

Some coins I put in as an example of what is also out there. A coloured 50 cent, a specimen 20 cent, gold 1 and 2 cents, silver 1 and 2 cents.

After that I mounted them all into an album and then used sticky notes to write some interesting information about either the year or decimal coins in general. Sticky notes so they can be updated or changed if desired.

If you interested, take a look.  Personally I'm really pleased with it.

Very nicely presented. Looks like a lot of effort has gone into making that album.

As we age we lose three things, one is our memory and arrrrr I\'ve forgotten the other two!

Excellent collection. You must be proud.
Is it me, or does the video get blurry after a minute?

Yes I am very pleased. Even though I chewed through a lot of mint sets and probably devalued the total price, I'm really pleased with the outcome.

It might be just you with the bluryness. I went back and looked at it and it seemed to be fine to me.  Happy to be proven otherwise, my eyes are getting older!

My eyes are getting older too, but I suspect it is something to do with my net connection. I'll clear the cache and check again later.
