    I'd love to see the pics of that one. It's a very cool coin. I wonder how the error will affect it's value.

    That coin has been in the drawer for 11 generation, simply because it was struck off-center. image Extremely cool.

    Marty:

    Coolcoin. You realize in another 19 years that coin will be 250 years old? Whatta birthday that coin will have!

    I think these British coins are going to do very well in the next 10 years. Even better than US coins!
