One man has made a nearly whopping £2million by selling his rare old coin collection.
Robert Puddester accumulated a collection of 1,246 old coins relating to the British East India Company over the course of 45 years.
The avid collector made the decision to sell his collection with London-based auctioneers Noonans Mayfair and the stash of coins sold for a monumental price of £1.57 million - totalling £1.95m with fees.
