    Dumbledore is my favourite, in memory of the late Michael Gambon.

    I think Hogwarts should win, it’s so well designed and all the small details, it’s really quite amazing.



    • Kate on November 29, 2023 at 4:03 pm

      Good choice Chrissie, there’s so much detail on that one! 🙂

    James Bond, although i may be being biased as i have a vast Bond coin collection both from the UK and Perth Mint,



    • Kate on November 29, 2023 at 4:02 pm

      Good choice! We’re glad the mints have a ‘licence to strike’ 😀

  9. Stephen Hashim on November 26, 2023 at 9:17 am

    I voted for the Windrush 50p one becouse of the design and two the most inportant one is the understanding of the Windrush people the coin it both beautiful and has a deep meaning about it so that is why the Windrush coin is my number 1 for 2023



    • Kate on November 29, 2023 at 4:01 pm

    Brilliant coins out under the new King, love the coins, and started collecting from the influence from my uncle. Just to say a big thank you, to all staff at Chsnge Checker for promoting and updating us on the new coins. Amazing job. Well done, keep up the great work your doing.

  15. Glen on November 24, 2023 at 1:40 pm

    I voted for the JRR Tolkien £2. It’s just a great coin design, and not only that, my daughter worked on the film of the same name, in the Art Department. I was so proud! 😊



    • Kate on November 24, 2023 at 1:41 pm

      Wow Glen, that’s very cool! It really is a great design 🙂



  16. CLIVE HORTON on November 24, 2023 at 12:24 pm

    Edward Jenner £2 coin unexpected but relavant in the history of blood



    • Kate on November 24, 2023 at 1:42 pm

      He was definitely an very important person in the history of science, and a great coin design to match!



  17. Derek Imrie on November 24, 2023 at 11:59 am

    A great selection of coins as always.



    • Kate on November 24, 2023 at 1:42 pm

      It’s hard to choose isn’t it!
