How Much Love can be Found in a Pound?

20220225 How Much Love Pound Header 01

A one-pound coin, a nicker, or maybe a spondoolie, whatever you call it… Just how much love is inside it?

Surely it can’t be much, weighing just 8.75 grams, barely 3cms thick and covered in nickel plated brass alloy.

How far can your £1 go?

Our quid coin was a replacement for the paper £1 banknote, which had a life expectancy of just six months. Since its launch, our lowly sheckle has sported scores of different designs, filling up or pockets and purses since 1983.

Back then, a single £1 coin could get you a box of twenty JPS king size, extra mild or maybe three cans of Kestral from your local off-licence. There shouldn’t be much love found in a packet of ciggies or a few tins of lager.

But here we are almost forty years later in 2022, what can you get with a single nugget now? Perhaps the froth off the top of a fancy coffee in town, maybe use it to unlock a shopping trolley at the supermarket. Or what about not even giving it a second glance as it gathers dust in the center console of your car, simply waiting to be used in an overpriced carpark ticket machine. But, we know that little one-pound coin is worth much, much more and is simply bursting with love. If you use it to do something incredibly special.
