London 2012: Olympic 50p coins 'kept as souvenirs'
The coins feature all Olympic and Paralympic sports and are produced by the Royal Mint in Llantrisant.
More London Olympics 50p coins are being hoarded by the public than any other commemorative coin circulated since decimalisation, says the Royal Mint.
The coins, produced in Llantrisant, feature Olympic and Paralympic sports.
Philip Mussell, director of Coin News magazine, said it was very unlikely the coins would be worth anything more than 50p after the Olympics.
"People are simply keeping them because they're nice things to keep," he said.
"After the Olympic Games are all over, are there going to be 800,000 people who want these things? I doubt it."

I'm betting none of these are removed from circulation.
