Very prompt delivery and it fitted through our letterbox. Still wrapped in the cellophane as it is a gift. Looks to be good value for money, sturdy and of good quality.

Well made and useful, but no room for expansion
Although I am not a numismatist, I chose this coin album, as whenever I get a £2 coin, I keep it, and once I have enough, I tend to treat myself. I was encouraged to do this as a child as a way to get me to save up, so what started many years ago with 20p pieces has now become £2 coins. The coins were stored just in a money tin, which made it tricky to see my money mounting up, whereas with these pockets it is super easy to see what fortune you have amassed ! The binder contains 4 clear sheets and each sheet can hold 15 coins, meaning a total of 60 £2 coins can be held in the binder. The strips slide out from the holder enabling the coins to be added/removed. The inside front cover gives some information on the history of the £2 coin. Each of the pages is fully secured down the central spine. The cover is dark navy blue, and is lightly padded. Conclusion This is a well-made and attractive looking binder, which is perfect for people wanting to save up their coins as well as for numismatists. It is available also for £1 coins/10p coins and 50p coins. Unfortunately, there is no way of increasing the storage, so personally I would have preferred a ring-binder system with leaves that could be added or removed, making this a more versatile system. Although it is nice to look at, and looks good on the shelf, due to the limited storage and lack of expandability, it is not versatile enough to warrant the £9.95 price tag.

A nice, but plasticy, binder to hold £2 coins.
If you want to store £2 coins in a binder then this is a product to do so. It doesn't come with any £2 coins, not a one. I'm not sure what justifies the price (at time of order and review £9.99). As I say, for the specific purpose of storing a limited number of £2 coins, if you've run out of bank change bags, then it does the job, but I can't give it more than 3 stars. When I ordered I assumed it was a promotional gimmick to charge more than £2 for the new King Charles £2 coin, and saw it as a way of getting a mint one, but no, it's just a very plastic folder than holds £2 coins, for some reason.

Excellent
Impossibile caricare il contenuto multimediale. Made in Germany, this folder seems to be a quality product. The design has been well thought through as I’ll explain below. It is well-labelled both on the cover, and the spin, telling you the contents it contains. This will delight any collector who likes to keep their coins in a systematic order. My children had no issues figuring out how to put the coins into the folder, and I love the reinforced pocket design. By placing them in a holder first, and then sliding it into the pocket page you can avoid damage to your folder. The pages are secured in the folder so you are not able to add pages, but there are 60 pockets which are made to fit £2 coins. Note: I am reviewing the £2 folder. I also love that the inserts have not been made with chemical softer! I will purchase the 50p folder as we also collect those for fun!

For nana's little numismatist ????
Impossibile caricare il contenuto multimediale. My grandson aged 4 and a half collects £2 coins just as his daddy collected £1 coins at around the same age.. The new £2 coins that is, the shiny ones that look too good to spend but they must have the queen on them. This notebook sized coin album is for him. It's a very well-made and good quality pocket album with 4 strongly bound clear pages that have sections which you pull out and insert a coin into the separate pockets. My grandson is going to love it.
