The new pound coin: nostalgia booster and crimebuster

I quite like the new design. Apparently it'll be roughly the size of the current coin. You'll still be left cursing at vending machines no doubt...

They have a point. I quite often see suspect coins in my wallet. I still spend them though.
It's been quite a while since I've had an obvious forgery. The crap ones were given away by the edges.
