�uro Currency; We are happy to accept
Euro cash payments in our shop. We normally allow the market
rate rounded down to the next whole penny. For example, at the
time of writing, the market rate is 0.8811, so we are allowing
88p per Euro (which is probably better than your bank will give
you). You can also pay for lots in this auction by Euro
banknotes (postal customers please confirm before sending). We
also accept payments in our shop in Euros, and we buy the old �legacy�
currencies, as well as other coins and notes.

Adrienne Murray and her twin sister
Gillian (combined age 104) are running the Edinburgh Marathon

This absolutely splendid charity manages the complex
where our daughter Caroline has her flat and provides the 24/7
care team and the day centre placement she and others need. Any contributions most gratefully
received at www.justgiving.com/Adrienne-Murray. There is also a sponsorship form at
the shop for those who prefer traditional methods. Thank you.
We are now stocking the
magazine Stamp and Coin Mart in our shop.
This is a monthly publication, priced at �3.20, and is a good
general interesting read. If we have copies available we�ll
bring them along to the auctions.

Estimate.
Most auctions include a
few lots which, due to their large size or weight compared to
value, will not be taken to the auction venue. They must
therefore be viewed at our shop during the previous week, and
successful purchasers will be responsible for their collection
from us. The symbol for these is � ��, and very generally
speaking, there's a cut-off point of about �2 or �3 estimate
per kilo weight.
If you attend the auction and buy any of these lots, you can
either call at the shop during normal opening hours, or it is
sometimes possible to arrange to pick up after the auction has
finished (though please first speak to Mr. Murray to arrange
this).
NORMAL BIDDING STEPS

our normal bid steps for your information. This may be of help
to bidders who are unable to
attend the sale, as any written bids received which do not fit
our normal pattern would usually be taken

much as possible, but do sometimes
change if circumstances make it desirable.)
Up to �20, bids are in �1 steps.
From �20 to �30, bids are in �2 steps.
>From �30 to �50, bids are in �2 or �3 steps (i.e. �30,
