7 sides seems unnatural. I don't like heptagons.

[Novo]

They look great think i'll just collect them rather then spend them they will be worth loads after a while

[Glenn.]

I think we need new coins full stop, not just for the Olympics.

[Shaun]

they'd look nicer without that trainwreck of a logo.

[Marc]

Numismatists all over the world will be moist with excitement

[Angus]

Anything that commemorates the Olympics will be worth money one day. It's been 64 years since the last time it was in London, and I doubt we'll ever be awarded it again.

Banks would have them.

I had one of those Olympic £5 coins the other day. It was the size of Pluto.

I'm guessing by chance. A lady I work with collected them and made us all check our takings for the Olympic 50p's, luckily she has them all now so I don't have to check each time.

I've just ordered the new Jubiliee Crown from them this morning. That's something else that will be worth a bit one day. Only the second Golden Jubilee of a sovereign in all of our history.

Lmfao. Selling £14.50 worth of material for £89.50. Priceless. Well, pricey but priceless.
