Hiya. Noticed last night that the three Charles III 2025 £1 coins I've got - which arrived in my change separately - are all with the heft handed variety of edge reeding. (Some of the 2016 ones are, 2017 are not so common, and 2018 even less so.) I'm wondering if all of them will be like that?

Hi Spyro - I started a separate thread about these varieties here: https://goccf.com/t/492806I've found both varieties of the 2025 £1 in roughly equal numbers.

I had an unusual coin in my change yesterday - a 2016 Latvian One Euro:  I was visiting a beautiful but dark medieval church and wanted to buy a guide book, priced at £2. I gave the churchwarden a £5 note and he handed me back three coins that I put in my pocket. It was only when I got home that I realised what I'd been given! Although €1 is worth less than £1, I was pleased as I didn't have a 2016 Latvian euro coin, and it helped the church as I'm sure they wouldn't have wanted to be stuck with a foreign coin when they cashed up at the end of the day!

Yesterday I went shopping and got two 2026 20 pence coins and one 2026 pound coin in change together at my local supermarket!   The 20p coins are my first Charles III 20p's from circulation, and the £1 is the first 2026 pound that I've had. I have now had 2026 10p, 20p and £1 coins in change.
