Royal Mint Trial £1 coin

Recommended Posts

Can anyone tell me about or point me to a reference about the Royal Mint Trial 12-sided £1 coin, many of which are for sale on Ebay. I'm particularly interested in the number minted, how they were distributed/applied for, etc etc

Well it would appear from this article that around 200,000 trial pieces were minted.

You might also be interested in a long running thread on the issue here

Fairly amateurishly written article I thought, Richard, but at least the journalist had taken the trouble to correctly source some very pithy and relevant information. Therefore useful.
