Coin Collecting NewsRare coins worth £500,000 stolen
Scotland’s most important collection of antique coins has been stolen, police have revealed. The unique collection, which has been valued at more than £500,000, features pieces dating back to 1136, when the very first Scottish coins were minted. A total of more than 1,000 coins were stolen from the home of Lord and Lady Stewartby in Broughton, near Peebles. A “substantial reward” has been offered to anyone who can help recover the collection. The raid happened more than a month ago, but police have only just released details of the theft for operational reasons.
