The top one looks the same as one I had and sold a few years ago ,a 20p struck on a 1p blank the coin having lustre still in the devices.The one I had was with a Royal Mint confirmation letter and when the coin was struck will still very lightly spread as was not the correct blank and so not perfectly round.

I note that none of the metal detector finds have the sort of remaining mint lustre that Director's coin has.

It seems logical to me that mint lustre will be very quickly destroyed with ground burial.
