Here is the OP from the CCF forum and how she came across hers Hi everyone I came across this today, I've done a bit of research and I know its the new £1 coin planned to be introduced 2017 but I couldn't find anything saying if it was rare or not.I work in a cash office and I know a lot of the rare and collectable coins but never in 14 years have I seen a trial piece! Just wondering if anyone here knew anything about it.Thanks And again, same OP I saw the ones that's been on eBay in the past and one on preloved for £999......I actually laughed when I saw that one lol I doubt it's worth anything near those amounts, I was just curious to it's rarity as I've never come across a trial coin before. And again I found another one today! It was in with a bag of 50p's. It seems strange to find two a few days apart in the same cash office so I'm guessing they're not that rare. Still swapped it for a £1 out of my purse, they're nice coin to have

It states there will be some sort of change as the sample coin doesn't feature the final design (20)

Yes, there will be a lot of confusion about this now, DNW and other auction houses sell various die trials, but only an assumption, they might not want it out just now incase some Chinese businessmen buy one and have a year to perfect their dies?

Yes, but funny when i asked DNW about it they left it and no email reply. If someone had of bought that it could have been an expensive learning curve, whoever consigned it will be p****d off as well i bet, DNW will have to send it to the mint

There we go

I doubt she'll get anywhere without the freedom of movement chapter which was why people partly voted for Brexit in the first place

The coin pictured here is 2015. Looks like DNW have pulled it, saw it earlier this morning but seems to be gone now

IMO it sounds like UPS are at fault, maybe you could contact Heritage with your complaint who could in turn contact UPS USA who can then contact UPS UK to find out what info they claimed was missing, my opinion would be not to pay the fee, let them send it back if needs be and if there was a problem get heritage to rectify it as they make the shipping labels, it might be just BS from the UPS UK as Heritage do shipping labels probably every week and i cannot see how they could mess 1 up

Wow, and whoever wrote it doesn't sound a happy bunny either. No doubt it will be removed from the DNW sale shortly

The worst part with live bidding is when you see a coin you want at estimate of say £100 and come the lot the opening bid is £600, your brain is trying to fathom out WTF just happened and should i bid and, what do they know

DNW are attending the London coin fair on the 5th Nov, if there's no email reply regarding the one they have for sale maybe someone can ask them directly if anyone is going

Just what i'm reading on the CCF website at the minute, one guy saying his work colleague was told to send it back to the RM and within a certain timeframe http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=270024

Apparently they do when the name government is mentioned, but not if you mention fake

Ebay are currently pulling these from auctions at the request of the Royal Mint, the mint are stating that they are Government property. I have sent a request to DNW regarding the one they have in sale and asking if the Trial strike they are selling can be legally sold, no answer as yet, there is a thread on the CCF forum about one of these, one guy has to send his back that he bought from ebay and has only a certain time to do so

Like it

It's definitely in Spinks, just looked it up and has it as Extremely rare as Nick says B/RRITANNIAR. Another to add onto your list @jaggy

@jaggy is your man

Its probably more to do with the timescale for the emails Pete, if you are answered within a minute i don't think the emails will arrive

13.5 million views, has Hilary been naughty since her husband was in power?

So why hasn't Gary Johnson been invited into the TV debates where only Trump and Clinton have been on air? Just because they are the 2 main candidates? Shouldn't all candidates get the same stage?

Ah, so there is other options then, much like voting for UKIP instead of Labour

I was excited for Obama when he got elected, but iMO he took over at the worst possible time with the 2008 crash, then the much hated (i'm led to believe) Obama care health system. Not sure who Gary Johnson is @jaggy
