| The Royal Mint have made a bit of ****up on some of the new 20p pieces, they forgot to print the date on them, and so are offering anyone who has one £50.00.
What to look for:
The special coins will have the new design on the back, but the old design on the front.
This means there will be no year on them anywhere. If you have one of the newly-designed 20p coins, check the front side with the Queen's head on it: if there is no date there, you might have found a coin worth £50.
How to cash in:
And what should you do if you find one of these special 20ps in your pocket, wallet purse or change jar?
A service has been set up to buy them from you. The London Mint Office, a private company not connected to the Royal Mint, is offering £50 to anyone who has one of the 'faulty' 20p coins. You must register online to be eligible: http://www.undated20p.com/ |

| "The London Mint Office, a private company not connected to the Royal Mint"
If this is genuine , and not just another urban myth/tall tale from the internet , then I think this private company is trying to buy them very cheaply.
They would probably be worth many times that amount to serious collectors in the future. |
