The new coin will enter circulation during 2017. But who likes it?

Yep, gets my vote. Pretty cool.

 

[Grumps]

Looks OK to me. What's wrong with the one weve got tho?

 

[Redline]

Can you give me a couple of thousand so I can test drive them?

Current ones are too easy to forge @Grumpy - a large proportion of those in circulation are wronguns.

 

[Synclare]

To easy to forge Grumps, they reckon there is almost as many fake £1 coins as genuine!

 

[Synclare]

Beat me to it @Redline

[Shelly]

I luv it
It's like going back to my childhood days
Can't wait to see one

 

[Redline]

They'll bring back the tanner next. Oh - they have. It's the 5p.

There used to be a silver thre'penny bit apparently!

Tony.

Indeed there did....I have about 10 of them on a silver bracelet which my grandma had made using coins she had saved. Unfortunately they all have holes drilled in them so are worthless.

Oi....be careful or my alter ego the wicked witch will cast a spell on you

 

[GazHyde]

As long as I can swap it for car parts I don't care what shape it is!

 

[Mac Romans]

The shape is useful. At least now I can use a spanner to get them out of my mate's hand when it's his round. Tight git.

metric or imperial?

 

[Low Rider]

Gotta be metric

 

[Mac Romans]

Either....if it doesn't fit the coin I can always use it to try "percussion encouragement" on his head.
