The Treasury banknotes are always great additions to the collection. The quality of these notes varies from ‘rags’ to superb high grades. Have a browse of my Treasury notes where there is a wide selection of notes and prices.

One of the greatest battles in Britain was at Bannockburn in 1314. The date and history is known to all Scots. Robert the Bruce triumphed – say no more. Wembley is a long way from Bannockburn but the Scottish heart longs for a victory on Friday evening. If Scotland lose then we have the consolation… Read more »

I have around twenty Somerset £10 notes coming soon. all are stated to be AUNC. They will be listed at very competitive prices so keep your eyes open for them…the ‘Recently Added’ feature on the Home Page is a good port of call for the latest arrivals.
