    Since no one has mentioned it, have you checked your 50p coins lately? there are a whole bunch of new ones with designs based on Olympic things, just wondered have you seen or got one / some?

      I have yet to notice, but then I tend not to have 50p coins for very long. I come in from work, empty the change out of my pocket onto the mantelpiece, then I think wife wins it. Or someone does. Usually not me.

        Is that Boracic?

        I never look at coins these days, I tend to go by feel.
        I need my glasses to actually see what's on them.
        Often get given French francs for 10ps

        Well, I looked in my cap today after a session on the corner of the street with my sad eyed dog and a Banjo [No, the dog doesn't play the Banjo......but it's not bad on drums:doggiesmz: ] and there were only IOU notes....so I haven't seen any new 50ps:snork:

          My father in-law has been collecting these Olympic 50ps since early this year or even last year if I remember rightly....

          You can also buy them stuck to collectors cards from our local post office...
