<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tulipone, post: 2547892, member: 71656&quot;]The Royal Mint will stop making the current £1 coins this year with the new design due out early 2017, shortly after they will demonetise the current designs.&nbsp; I have a set of all circulated UK £1 coins that are worth £1 each - maybe a tad more to a collector who wants a specific coin.&nbsp; As there are so many millions of each design, none are likely to raise to a value worth having in my lifetime - so do I spend them and release their value or keep them in an album with their worth likely scrap value only?</p><p><br /></p><p>When the UK demonetised after decimalisation, there are bucket loads of coppers and the cheap cupro nickel &#039;silver&#039; coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think I have decided to trade them for an older coin that someone braver than I decided not to spend hundreds of years ago.&nbsp; I guess it all depends on what money is worth to you! </p><p><br /></p><p>What would you do if your central mint decided to bin certain or all coins?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
