    Local shop got in a few dates of these. This one is really proof-like in hand and I believe was overstruck. You can see an image of a character where it shouldn't be.

    I got it since I just wanted an example and didn't care about how common it is and such, lol.

    Thanks though!

    Finally got this one today. I ordered it over a month ago and was sent the wrong coin. So I sent it back and waited to get this one. It's a beautiful coin and I'm going to keep it, but this one has some scuffs and marks on it (probably someone else's reject coin). I guess the Britannia Rules the Waves is copyrighted by the Royal Mint so they just removed the motto off of future coins. This version has a mintage of around 7,000 instead of 50,000. Here's hoping the value skyrockets ;) http://en.mercopress.com/2017/07/20...will-have-to-remove-britannia-rules-the-waves
