Local shops are now heavily distributing the 2009 & 2010 Royal Standard pound coin, in its full shiny glory, but I have yet to see the 2010 London and Belfast pound coins in circulation, and the 2011 Cardiff & Edinburgh coins are due for release soon, according to Royal Mint.
How long will it be before we see these designs ''replicated''??

Its getting near Christmas and no-one has time to check their change!!
Since my last blog entry, things have started to rise again in the ''Fake Stakes'' as previously national publicity fades away until the next banner headline.
Anyway, to add to my list of personally seen fakes, I can now add;
2000 Welsh Dragon - very good one, took me ages to decide its validity...or lack of it!!
2001 Celtic Cross - one of the most common fakes
2006 Egyptian Arch
and it had to happen sooner or later,
2008 Royal Standard - am convinced this is a fake but am still pondering
