Spend 'em at Tesco.
It is reckoned that there is a high percentage of counterfeit £1 coins in circulation, and the banks will check each and every one of them.
Tesco around here can't even manage to successfully rotate stock on a shelf, so they they won't pick up dud £1 coins

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

No chance I'm way too tight for that. I'll dump it on some poor mug.

Already got rid. Went in one of those shops where the bloke who serves you is permanently on the blower to someone and is paying as little attention as possible to his actual job. No problemo.

You can still put the old ones in the machines at Poundland. I would think any machine will still take them so you dont have to cash them in at the bank. I was still getting them out of change trays so its probably a while yet until they are all out of circulation
I suppose we were due a change as the old ones were getting real tatty and there is supposed to be loads of counterfeits.
I have visions of them scratching their heads on how to make the new looking ones. They are probably at work now filing the sides and painting the centresThre must be a point where its just not worth it.
The good old british pound in our poundshop economy. I get quite upset now if my toiletries and household consumable cost more than a pound each
