ooh! i kinda like them.
they do look a bit like random offcuts though.
HOW DARE THEY TAKE BRITIANNIANIANA OFF THE COINS BLEEDIN IMMIGRANTS DESTRYING OUR CULTURE
Heh heh!
It's stupid anyway. Britannia is just a throwback to the Victoria obsession with Romanticism in trying to make our empire ape theirs. This design is far older and more 'British'.
Note it even has the Irish harp on it, though I guess that's sort of out of date now only NI is part of the union.
though they'll make a nice
jigsaw puzzle coin game to pass the time when bored.
I like the 50p
a lot.
swap you one for an old pound coin?
They're quite nice
There was a small dialogue on the Today programme this morning about how much of a significant event this is, may attention wavered.
were they saying it wasn't very significant
because barely anyone knows or cares whats drawn on their money as long as they can still spend it?
Something along those lines
It's the first range revamp since decimalisation or something, and it's only happened a handful of times since Elizabeth I.
I quite like the new designs too

who's the one at the bottom? david batty or gazza?
because things still cost
£1.99
Things cost $1.99 in Australia
but they don't have anything less than 5c pieces.
rip off cunts
i might buy the platinum proof collection
surely a bargain at 6 grand
we need them for charity
and i like these, they are wellsexy
They're fucking ace!
Where can you get them from and how much are they????????????
Where's the two quid?
Or is that different anyway?
Because it's so new
They decided it was too early to redesign them
beautiful!
when do they enter your currency, or have they already started to leak out?
they'll be
released in the next few weeks as and when needed....whatever that means.
Mint
Not really. They look shit.
i thought i was the only person who thinks these are hid
so we will still have the old style ones too?
No
loads of men in balaclavas coming to steal your monies anyday now.
I really like the 20ps especially
i think i might cover my wall in them instead of wallpaper.
those are eye-wateringly bad
why does everything have to be 'arty' and 'edgy' nowadays? why can't they just be some fucking coins?
There goes any hope of a new series of The Queen's Nose
:(
Pretty good.
But they already look sort of dated. Like something from 1993.
I dont like them
Just off cuts that wont make sense as and when they fade! RUBBISH NOVELY! BRITANIA IS MORE THEN A NOVELTY
