Anybody fancy a PLATINUM coin?

Just look what the Mint has issued now. The first British platinum coin, a piedfort issue and £2995 to boot!

That's horrible! Who wants buy that? These yearly £5 coins just seem to get worse and worse

I think that the quality of the coins that royal mint has been producing recently, especially patterns is revolting!

[william 0]

I agree, have you seen the new 2004 50p, with the runners legs on it. It's revolting!

I thik that William Wyon should come back from the dead to teach the royal mint engravers a lesson!

[william 0]

Ooh yes, that would be nice! I bet Wyon's turning in his grave right now.

[Half Penny Jon 0]

Thats one of the reasons why I collect those pennies, because I think that his designs are way ahead of his time.

Certainly, don't you just love the Victorian Young Head? It's got everything really.

[Half Penny Jon 0]

In my opinion, its the most attractive head in the victorian series.

[william 0]

Definately. Do you like the Jubilee head?

[Half Penny Jon 0]

It's O.K, yeah.
