As far as the commemorative ones are concerned, that sounds about right - however, if you're lucky enough to be at a show where Brian is playing, his guitar tech guy (Pete?) dishes out actual sixpences that he has either used at the tour or on rehearsals. Plectrums too. |
| bootLuca 15.11.2012 06:25 |
I missed the 2011 one! Don't you have one of these that you can sell to me? thank you! Luca |
| David Jones 22.11.2012 13:30 |
Hi Luca, I only have the one I'm afraid from when I went to see WWRY on the UK tour. |
| DragonOnMyBack 14.12.2012 04:53 |
Only just spotted this thread so you may already have got confirmation but.....I have been collecting the sixpences as well. Off the top of my head I know I have 7 different ones and I think your list aligns with what I have, but I will check them tonight and let you know if there are any differences. In addition to those 7 coins I also have one of Brian's actual sixpences. |
| DragonOnMyBack 18.12.2012 12:20 |
Just checked my sixpences and my 7 match your list in the first post exactly. |

I only bought the 2005 tour one and gave it to a friend of mine. The following year he and I went to see QPR in San Diego - front on Brian's side. The lucky bastard caught Brian's sixpence right after he played the last power chord in 'Champions'. Now he has two and I got squat! Hahaha :) |
| brunogorski 02.01.2013 20:55 |
Wow, this is cool! David, sent you a PM. =) |
| Reid_Special_98 21.06.2013 11:27 |
Anybody have a 2011 sixpence they are willing to sell ? |
| David Jones 11.07.2013 18:19 |
There is also now a 2013 sixpence available for those of you collecting: link |
| bootLuca 12.07.2013 01:10 |
it is sold on ebay at £ 40, 8 times the price of queenonline :( link |
| David Jones 21.03.2014 19:39 |
There is now a 2014 sixpence available which is very nice!: link |
| The Real Wizard 22.03.2014 00:23 |
$8 for a six pence? I guess this isn't currency exchange for math majors ;) |
| Reid_Special_98 15.04.2014 20:29 |
I have all of the coins. Including the 1993 edition and two of Brian's actual sixpence coins. |
| BrianRitch 21.05.2014 18:34 |
i have a few 2008 brian may coins to sell. picks2007@aol.com |
| David Jones 10.12.2014 06:34 |
I thought as soon as the Adam Lambert UK tour was announced, "there's the 2015 sixpence sorted" and here it is!:- link Is it just me or does the back of this one look a little cheap? A shame as 2014 was a beaut. |
| people on streets 18.12.2014 19:53 |
real deal. link |
| Penetration_Guru 07.03.2015 03:03 |
I thought I was doing well keeping up with these, but it turns out that my antipathy for WWRY has cost me - no 2011/12/13 for me, so if anyone has spares of those..... |
| freddy4ever 21.06.2015 11:31 |
Try one of these; link |
| David Jones 12.09.2016 12:28 |
There is now also the Pobjoy gold 2014 sixpence that BMG are offering with the purchase of a guitar. It was available separately for £35 or so for a while but I didn't get one. Has anyone else managed to get one? |
| Penetration_Guru 13.09.2016 16:00 |
Beware the muppets taking the regular ones and plating them to put on ebay.... Has there been a 2016 one? |
| David Jones 04.10.2016 16:15 |
Yeah, I've seen them too! Cowboys. *edit* 2016 Sixpences are available to pre-order on QOL shop - link |
| Penetration_Guru 26.03.2017 12:31 |
Bump - once again, if anyone has access to a 2011 or 2013 one, I am buying. |
| Penetration_Guru 31.05.2017 18:04 |
Only 2011 needed now - only ever seen one on Ebay too. The original BTTL one might be the most expensive, but it's deifinitely not the rarest... |
| Pingfah 04.07.2017 10:46 |
I have the original 1993 one. I don't have a huge collection of Queen rarities, but along with my personally obtained, signed Roger Taylor stick from the final Cross gig at Gosport (or maybe the solo gig the year after, my memory fails me now), this is definitely one of my favourites. |
| David Jones 02.08.2017 16:23 |
The first "two headed" sixpence - is it just me or does this look like a crock of shit? link |
| Penetration_Guru 02.08.2017 21:18 |

Tempting fate, but I think I just completed the (non Gold) set. 2011 coin on the way. Looking at the completed listings, it appears a couple have turned up recently - plus there's another current listing, although the price is just stupid - £280 buy it now. Interesting to see how many 2017 ones have gone for £25-30 - I really should have invested in more of those from the QOL shop.... |
| bootLuca 10.02.2018 05:51 |
I miss the 2016 coin, does anyone have one to swap or sell? if someone is interested I have these doubles: 2005-2008-2013-2014-2015-2017 Thanks Luca |
| Jamie74 21.02.2018 21:12 |
I’m willing to sell my Vegas 2004 and QPR 2005 sixpences, PM me if interested. |

| Penetration_Guru 27.10.2018 16:00 |
2018 ones are now on ebay at very ambitious prices. It seems I missed the window of them bring on the QOL store. |
| David Jones 01.11.2018 12:23 |
Me too. Hopefully there will be a restock soon to keep my collection complete! |
| David Jones 09.11.2018 13:07 |
Back in stock! link |
| bootLuca 09.11.2018 14:00 |
Thank you very much!! ;) |

My only reason to collect the BM sixpenses is that they’re great for picking your nose |
| David Jones 26.05.2020 20:51 |
Has anyone bought the Seiko Red Special watch? Any views on the sixpence? |
| MAYniac91 03.06.2020 10:34 |
Got it... nice coin overall! |
| sonic 05.10.2020 18:34 |
I was wondering if anybody would buy this crap sixpences, and now I see there really are people buying. Unbelievable...no offense by the way. |
