Anglesey Beach Silver Coins Treasure Find
By David M Phillips
A beautiful Anglesey beach is a real treasure trove following an amazing discovery of ancient silver coins at Llanddona beach. Beachcombers will sit up at the idea of an exploration to a soft, sandy remote beach on a paradise island off North Wales.
Coin experts estimate the 600 silver coins found at Llanddona date back to the late 13th century. In fact, this secret beach location has yielded almost 1,000 silver coins in over 6 years of beachcombing by treasure hunters.
The treasure hunters who found this latest treasure trove have been searching for over 6 years. They reckon each coin will be valued at about $8. Now the National Museum of Wales says these silver coins are similar to those found in Ireland, Scotland and the rest of Europe and dating back to the late 1200�s.
This Anglesey beach at Llanddona is a regular winner of the European Blue Flag Seaside Award for quality bathing conditions and good facilities.
The coastal and sea views from here are spectacular and well worth a visit. Looking north you will see the soft sandy beaches stretch along to Red Wharf Bay and Benllech. And at the furthest point is Moelfre, a small eastward facing coastal village famed for its maritime tradition.
From here the famous Moelfre lifeboat was launched to save mariners in distress off the north east Anglesey coast.
With so many shipwrecks along this treasure island coast over the years, it is possible that some of the silver coin discovery is linked to such disasters. There are many old accounts of gold sovereigns being discovered along some Anglesey beaches after major shipwrecks.
So as you view the magnificent Anglesey coastal sea views at Llanddona, just think as you feel the soft sand between your toes what might be below the surface. The beachcomber who found the silver coins now believes the sandbank has shifted since last winter.
It�s quite possible there are more 13th century silver coins waiting to be found on this beautiful Anglesey beach, but it may be more difficult to dig them out.
So whether you are into beachcombing, treasure hunts or just chilling out and appreciating lovely sea views, Llanddona is your perfect start for a break on an Anglesey beach.

Paper Money & Coin Collecting Info
Although some of these U.S. paper money notes carry more of a premium than others, most $2 and $5 Red Seals that are seen are circulated notes from common series that carry very little premium over face value. All $1 Red Seals are scarce and are quite valuable in higher grades, while $100 Red Seals (although relatively modern) carry a premium of 20% to 40% even in circulated condition. Again, there are several scarce issues among these notes, and we recommend the Standard Guide to Small Size U.S. Paper Money (1928 to date), by Dean Oakes and John Schwartz, for more information.

It is pretty evident that a lot of old money has significant value nowadays. It is true that casual collectors cannot afford to have any authentic old money and notes from the 1800s and early 1900s as their value and consequently price are too high. That's how collecting souvenir cards are becoming more and more popular. Having them you can collect a piece of history without actually paying a high price for it.
Buy silver dollars for a great investment.
One thing to keep in mind is that the quality of books on paper money is very high and they play a major role for collectors. Lots of people have dedicated their lives to researching and compiling information on paper money. It just makes sense to utilize and build on what they've already done.
