davidrj Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 A Britannia's face value is £2.Seeing as how they are going on fleabay for around £30 though, you would have to be a piece of work to want to spend it for face value.....be a laugh though, wouldn't it? I bet a lot of people wouldn't accept one for £2!I once spent a Churchill crown. and had it accepted, but that was many years ago Quote
