Blank 20p

A completely blank on both sides 20p genuinely impressive!

Perfect 7 sided heptagonal shape ✓
Beautiful clearly defined upset rim ✓
Completely blank recessed centre ✓
A pristine genuine unstruck Royal Mint 20p planchet in exceptional condition. The characteristic upset rim created during the pre striking process is clearly visible and perfectly defined, standing proud above the recessed blank face. Both sides are completely blank with no trace of any design. The cupro-nickel composition is confirmed non-magnetic. Factory fresh condition with only the most minimal contact marks consistent with handling. An extraordinarily rare piece of Royal Mint manufacturing history that somehow escaped the striking process entirely

 Nice. 15 years ago I got a blank £2 coin - though it had 

already been through the edge lettering process

 which luckily was only on the 2002 coins, so could be identified.

Usually a lot of the blanks i see they are either blank on 1 side and look like they have been machined or they look mangled up this one however looks clean as if it just left the mint

That is a super nice find! 

Kind of odd to see such a familiar coin in its unstruck state.

And to end up in circulation is even more astonishing
