Chocolate coins

I want some choc coins for the Christmas tree, but they HAVE to be the old English ones. And they HAVE to be wrapped in gold foil, not silver. Not that I'm fussy or anything
The last few years I've only seen Euros in the shops. I can't hang Euros on the tree, it's just not right 
Anyone seen them anywhere?

I already have santas

The coins in Lidl are Euros, I think :think: Well they were last year. I'm a bit anti-euro so it HAS to be old pennies, etc

I've seen choccie coins on sale in M&S but didn't look to see if they were UK denominations. Lidl also have them but I assume they would be Euros.0
