BRITISH TREASURY PUT HOLD ON BREIT COINS

The Treasury has “paused” production of a new 50p coin com-memorating Brexit on 31 October after it became clear that the UK is unlikely to leave the EU on time.

The special edition was supposed to mark Britain’s departure at the end of the month, but production by the Royal Mint has stopped and already-minted coins are being stockpiled.

A Treasury spokesman said: “We have paused production of the Brexit coin, and will take a final decision in due course.” There has

been speculation that the estimated 1,000 coins minted so far could fetch a premium on the 50p cover price, possibly selling for as much as £800 each. The chancellor, Sajid Javid, had ordered 3m of the coins to be made ready for the end of the month with the inscription “Peace, prosperity and friendship with all nations”. Underneath the inscription, the Mint placed the historic date the UK is supposed to leave the EU: 31 October 2019.

Treasury officials refused to say whether the Mint will release the coins into circulation or seek to realise their inflated value by selling them on its website.The chancellor could decide to melt them down to be remade with a new date but officials are unlikely to risk going ahead until parliament and the EU give further clarity.

Javid’s predecessor, Philip Hammond, had planned a limited edition of about 10,000 commemorative coins to be sold to collectors for £10 each in time for the first deadline on 29 March.. The 50p move is the Treasury’s second U-turn in 24 hours after it confirmed that it had pulled a budget due to be held on 6 November, when the government would have detailed its economic plans and tax and spending

Updated Aug. 29, 2019 3:34 p.m. ET A group of people on British field with metal detectors stumbled upon the find of a lifetime: a treasure trove of silver coins dating back nearly a millennium. the British Museum revealed the find Wednesday, The cache comprises 2,528 coins and some additional fragments. Many of them depict Harold II, the Anglo-Saxon king who was deposed during the conquest, or his successor, William the Conqueror. In both cases, the discovery represents far more coins than were pre-viously known to exist of either ruler. the coins were discovered in January in Somerset, west of London, by a group of metal detector hobbyists. The coins have spent the past seven months at the British Museum, where they have been cleaned, catalogued and researched.It is believed the hoard was likely buried sometime around 1067 or 1068, shortly af-ter the 1066 conquest. While it is not clear why it was buried, it is possible that the coins' owner hid them to protect them against raids from people loyal to Harold II. articularly exciting to researchers is the first evidence ever found of a "mule" – coin talk for a piece with different design types on each side. The museum likens this to "an early form of tax evasion," saying it allowed the coin producer to reuse an old die, avoiding the fee that would come with purchasing a new one. Museum officials say the coins are generally in good condition. Efforts are now underway to determine if they can be legally classified as treasure, which would give museums the opportunity to acquire them and allow for a reward to be paid to the finders and the owner of the land where the discovery was made. said he had been told that the find could be worth more than 5 million pounds ($8.1 million),
