<p>[QUOTE=&quot;treehugger, post: 1383851, member: 28451&quot;]If it was me, I would stick with the raw brilliant uncirculated coins. I have a number of them and they all look really good and have a proof-like quality to them. Of course, they do not have the frosted devices like the actual proofs do. On the other hand, they do not carry the high price tag like the real proofs do. If you can find them in person, it would be better. This is because my experience is the older the britannia is, the more likely there is wear on the Queen side in the facial area.</p><p><br /></p><p>The only actual proof I have is the 2009 (chariot) because that is my favorite design by far. My next favorite would be the 2007 (lion), but the asking price on that coin is too much for me in that I have other things I&#039;d rather have for that amount of money. I completely agree with you that they are great looking coins for bullion. Good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
