Emperor Oli Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 Just look what the Mint has issued now. The first British platinum coin, a piedfort issue and £2995 to boot! Quote
william Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 That's horrible! Who wants buy that? These yearly £5 coins just seem to get worse and worse Quote
Half Penny Jon Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 I think that the quality of the coins that royal mint has been producing recently, especially patterns is revolting! Quote
william Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 I agree, have you seen the new 2004 50p, with the runners legs on it. It's revolting! Quote
Half Penny Jon Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 I thik that William Wyon should come back from the dead to teach the royal mint engravers a lesson! Quote
william Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 Ooh yes, that would be nice! I bet Wyon's turning in his grave right now. Quote
Half Penny Jon Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 Thats one of the reasons why I collect those pennies, because I think that his designs are way ahead of his time. Quote
william Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 Certainly, don't you just love the Victorian Young Head? It's got everything really. Quote
Half Penny Jon Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 In my opinion, its the most attractive head in the victorian series. Quote
