spermann Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I keep ending up with pockets full of gold nuggets after a night out and no notes in my wallett. Have we stopped printing the good old Manx pound note? Please shed me some light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have we stopped printing the good old Manx pound note? Please shed me some light. I've had a few given in change this year, one or two of which seemed fresh off the printing press. Still a few around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Search completed listings on ebay, some wise chap has discovered you can sell them for more than face value + p&p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La_Dolce_Vita Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I think having pound notes is much better than carrying change. England should bring the pound note back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La_Dolce_Vita Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 they cost too much to continually replace Oh right, you'd of thought coins would have cost more than those little bits of paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 they cost too much to continually replace Oh right, you'd of thought coins would have cost more than those little bits of paper. I totally made that up. I'm guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coins do cost more to make - but they last a lot longer and work out cheaper in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
immortalpuppet Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 We were bored in work and put a few pound notes up for sale at £1.50 each with 25p P+P, sold 5 of them in a day. Also got a PM from the person that has been selling them for years telling us to stop it as we were taking a piece of his action! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I went to the bank and got some nice new crispy ones, all in sequence ending 0 - 20 to try it but never got round to putting them on. If anyone wants them they're yours for £30 + p&p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mission Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I still see plenty of them - there's more than one person that goes shopping with a bundle of them fresh from the bank too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
