I spotted this on the BBC News website today

Check your new 20ps as they may be worth £50 due to a date error made by the Royal Mint. They are still legal tender as 20ps but they may also be worth £50:cool:
Moneysaving at its best I say...as I go off and check all my 20ps:rotfl:

Also if you go to the site - its worth registering first before you find them as they are only paying the first 10,000 people who register - cant help feeling this is a marketing ploy (and I work in marketing

But these are new undated ones so it doesnt relate to old ones from 1982:rolleyes:0

But I'd be happily sending you my lovely shiny and new 20p in exchange for one of yours! Ooooohhhh, it's glistening in the sunlight and looks lovely. I'm sure you want this one.
