The press release has said that about every £5 coin issued, yet in practice they do not circulate. Jersey / Guernsey / Isle of Man and UK £5 coins do not circulate either but they are legal tender....
Oh, David, you EVIL man! You were not dead after all! WHY were you pretending to be dead? Apologise - IMMEDIATELY!!!!
ReplyDeleteReally glad to see the posts back, though.

Dead? I was on holidays! I should have told you, sorry. My apologizes to all my readers.
ReplyDeletethis is not a circulation coin, £5 banknotes are used in Gibraltar....
ReplyDeleteAndy,
ReplyDeleteThe official press release through the Gibraltar Chronicle states that this will also circulate along with the Gibraltarian 5 Quid note.
