What can I say? I am more than thrilled to find out and to provide an update about this! The title says it all - yes, the London Mint Office is now paying those registered sellers a 100 quid for an undated 20p piece! The very fact that the price has doubled from £50 - £100 makes having 3 pieces of these tiny treasures in my collection exiting. 3 isn't many nor is it impressive but I am glad I bought the latest 2 at very low prices a few months back. No exact figure has been reported as to how many of these were minted but according to the information provided by the Royal Mint, the error affected about 250,000 out of the 136 million pieces minted.
Happily sealed them three in plastic coin holders, air tite in eternity, safe from all types of chemical and physical harm.
p/s: My heart is still pounding with joy :)
