  • This video is about 3 fake coins here is something that is telling you about the fake coins I hope you like it.
    1. Weight: Genuine £1 coins should weigh approximately 9.5 grams. Counterfeit coins may have slightly different weights.
    2. Edge Inscription: The inscription on the edge of a genuine £1 coin reads "ONE POUND." Some fake coins may have errors or missing inscriptions.
    3. Security Features: Genuine £1 coins have several security features, including a hologram-like image that changes from a "£" symbol to the number "1" when tilted. Counterfeits may lack these features.
    4. Detail and Quality: Examine the design, lettering, and overall quality of the coin. Counterfeit coins may have noticeable imperfections.
    5. Magnet Test: Real £1 coins have a magnetic core. You can use a strong magnet to check if a coin is magnetic, but be cautious, as some counterfeit coins are made to pass this test.
    6. Date and Design Changes: Keep in mind that the design of the £1 coin changed in 2017, so older and newer designs may differ.

    Real £1's are magnetic in the middle as well.

      No they not because the are Bimetallic: nickel plated brass centre in nickel brass ring so the magnet will not stick to copper-nickel.

      @@ROBERTSCOIN They certainly are Robert, otherwise all my RM BU packs, and my collection that have the micro dates and holograms are fakes! 😁. Try a few out, and you will see. It's weird as true £2 coins are made from the same material, but are not magnetic.

      I have tried a few and the magnet doesn't stick to them.
