  2. asked the royal mint if they could let me know how many 2017, 13 and 8 coin annual sets were sold to try and work out how many 20p and £2 coins were issued in the sets, got the standard reply,,, Hi Craig, we haven't got these figures at the moment, sorry! The best thing I can suggest is to keep checking the website for updates. is it that hard for them to collate this information, the sets are long sold out so surely they should know this answer,
