Title: New 2008 coin
Post by: haj on 28 August 2008, 21:30:48

Was looking at obverse of 50p peace depicting a soldier carrying a comrade commemorating the VC.
On the new range of coins coming out the obverse of 1p to £1 coins is like a jigsaw puzzle,when the coins are put together you have a picture of the heraldic royal arms.Amazing I think

Nice and shiny.  8-)

Surely though, the Queen's head is on the obverse? The design is on the reverse?
