After listening to David Cameron's the Primeminister of Great Britain new year speach



all I can add is to tell the antiquestrade TO PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS.

The Prime Minister obviously knows how serious the worlds money crisis is but laughs at the funny side of the shrinking penny. How over the centuries our pockets have gone smaller to compensate for this the coin that has also gone smaller.

I live in the first Village in England back in the latter part of the 18th century to issue money. The Halsall Token, or The Halsall Penny.

2011 may have been the last year where we in the antiquestrade would have been able to buy antiques at such a low price.

Wish you all the best for 2012........ john nolan theantiquesman
