Britannia Query

[Bluegeo]

Hi Folks

I received 2 tubes of 2018 Brits in error instead of 2020’s requested. 
 

2 Questions:

1) Does the year make any difference to the value?

2) From the attached photo would the 2 flat spots between Britannia’s waist and her trident affect the value in any way? They appear on 49/50 coins in exactly the same place so look like a pressing issue - definitely not milk spots 

Thanks in advance for any advice given

Personally if I'd paid for 2020s and got 2018s then I would not be happy. 

Should be getting what is described and what you've paid for.

Like buying a Chinese and a Curry turning up 😂

As to the value I dont think it would make much difference its still 1oz of silver each coin.

They are just bullion so the metal value is identical.

The ‘flat spot’ just looks like a dye error - something stuck on the dye when they were minted or the dye failed at that specific area which is why it is repeated in many of your coins . I’ve seen that of error on plenty of tubes of brits.

Conclusion is they are not perfect, but you got what you paid for - bullion silver brits. Personally i would just keep the 18s and stick them in the stack as they will be a tad more difficult to get hold of than 2020s but in my view it doesn’t make much difference!

Input greatly appreciated chaps

Both valid points and torn between the two

I’ll sort it out with the seller hopefully 

Thanks again

Bullion is bullion I wouldn't worry about it too much. Just keep buying and your next purchase could be the 2020s again and you might receive them this time lol
