The Royal Mint have just put on sale a new £5 coin with the Kate Middleton and William. The price................£9.95  Why not £5? So paying for the wedding? The bunch of sycophantic dullards who will buy the coins. Somehow I think I'll give it a miss.  |

I'll not be blinkin buying one Years back-when it was the Queens Silver Jubilee they were giving the coins away to us school kids.Fair enough it was only worth 25p-but still  Paying nearly ten quid for a five pound coin-madness  |

Royal memorabilia used to be worth something a while back now it's worth next to nowt, ive got boxed soap i think they are 1935 jubilee and would probably be worth nowt, ive got coronation cups and jubilee cups and i know they used to have a value but now worth next to nowt.

ive got 2 boxes ones coronation soap and ones silver jubilee, i think Geroge and Mary, so one box is from about 1910 the other 1935, ive also got a 1910 to 1935 silver jubilee port of Blyth pewter beaker it's very nice but like i said Royal memorabilia is worth nowt now.

I've got a 1935 cup and saucer that's been passed down to me and a tin with George and Mary's picture on.

The beaker sounds nice-I like old artifacts. But soap? I think its more interesting as old soap-jubilee soap just sounds mad. What on earth did people buy it for? I buy soap every week but I dont stash a bar away hoping it'll increase in value fifty years down the line Pure marketing even then-stick a picture of some celeb of the time and people buy it in droves.And hope it increases in value These days Im surprised not to see Katie Price soap. And a rival Peter Andre one. |

i must admit the royal soap is probably rare but i doubt it's got any great value to it, im surprised they dont do Roayl bog roll, a one with Camillas face on, looks better when used ;D.
