Nature abhors a vacuum!

(And so does a coin collector!)

Not that I'm a 'coin collector' as such: it's just (you'll remember) that I recently refound a near-complete type set of British pennies, from 1902 - 1966. There was one missing: my birth year of 1951. Unfortunately, this is also the second rarest British penny, so I hadn't intended filling the gap. However, I came across one in excellent condition in an obscure location online and bought it for a fraction of the 'going rate': now the set is complete and can go back on the shelf to be ignored for another ten years!
