Cool Coins in the UK: Guess Who?!?

I saw this article about the UK pop star George Michael was engraved on collectible coins. It is a good tribute to his famous song "Last Christmas," which became famous across the globe. I wish I could have one or two of these uncirculated cool coins circulating in the UK now. The photo is based on the release of his song Faith in 1987. He died at the young age of 56 in 2016. Are you fond of collecting commemorative coins? Image Credit: mymodernmet.com

I don’t think I have ever bought or collected a coin like that.

I read from the article that these are limited coins. I find it cool to have them though.

NO, I am not fond of collective commemorative coins. I received a few as gifts that I have sold in the meantime.

I guess I got the idea of doing so from one of my grandmas. She loved collecting things and that includes commemorative coins.

@LadyDuck I agree. For a keepsake matter, I think it is.

@Shavkat Those things often cost a lot but their face value is not a lot.

I sold most of my coin collection on ebay before we moved I did really good with those coins.

I am planning to sell some old coins here, but I am still sorting them out.
