What is your definition of an 'old' pound coin?

There have been many designs over the years, as described by Wiki here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_pound_(British_coin)

Do you mean the round type of coin, as opposed to the 12-sided coin, or is it more specific than that?

Burman500

Yes the round ones that went out of circulation in 2017 being replaced by the 12 sided ones

Does anyone know if the bank still takes the old £1 coins?

There is a charity called Kicks Count they get sent them, so might be able to help
