<p>[QUOTE=&quot;eddyk, post: 1810521, member: 3712&quot;]Asked my local coin dealer today what he thought of the £20 for £20 scheme.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>He said he hated them because there was no money to be had on them from his point of view. He said as a dealer he couldn&#039;t buy them for less and nor could he sell them for more.</p><p><br /></p><p>I asked how much he would pay if I were to trade one in... he said &#039;£7.50, because that&#039;s how much silver is in them&#039;.</p><p><br /></p><p>I then asked him why he swaps £5 coins for £5 instead of 12 pence, because that&#039;s all the metal is worth in them.</p><p><br /></p><p>He said something along the lines of &#039;banks accept £5 coins but they wont accept these&#039;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
