You need to contact the coins and medals department directly and fill out an application as well as specify the particular coins you want to see using their catalogue numbers. They may require references and I've found the scheduling to be difficult in the past due to them being booked, closed, etc. I've tried doing this a few times on other trips but without success. Once the reservations were finally secured, the BM staff were an absolute delight and very gracious hosts.
