Got a pound coin off ebay the other week.
Welsh leek, doesn't appear to be fake and I'm told was found in an unopened roll of £1 coins, when opened up in a ladys shop as till change.
However the portrait side is not struck at all and is entirely a flat smooth face. An unnoticed mis-strike by the Royal Mint I assume and certainly worth a fair bit to the right person.
Not a fake but certainly one I wanted to add to my collection of 'oddities'
