It's such a shame that these commemorative coins are so expensive. You can buy this £20 coin for £20. Might we want to commemorate Sir Winston Churchill or the Battle of Britain? The least expensive Churchill coin, a £5 Brilliant Uncirculated coin costs £13. The least expensive Battle of Britain coin is a 50p Brilliant Uncirculated for £15.95. Face value £25.50. Cost £48.95. But the cost of the best quality commemorative coins would bring tears of pain to your eyes! http://www.royalmint.com/our-coins
