People who find an undated new 20p need to register their details with The London Mint Office before sending in the coin and claiming their reward.
Full details of how to register are available online at www.undated20p.com.

I have just been through my coin jar and out of all the 20p pieces only 8 were the new style and all had a date on them. eusasmiles.zip

I just can't work out why today every punter has rounded the fare up to the nearest 80p i.e. £2.80, £3.80, £4.80 etc. :?

See their faces when I give them two 10p pieces in change. :lol: :lol:

The London Mint Office have nothing to do with the "ROYAL MINT", they just sell over priced coins to collectors.
Best bet is ebay the highest priced being bid on on is approx £300, some chancers have a start price of £1000

How often do a succession of people give you a load of 20p coins with the £1 coins?

I haven't had a single 20p given to me today!!! :cry:

When I cashed up last night I had a total of 28 pence in cash, everyone seemed to pay with notes.
