Will it be a series, one for each winner?

Its a commemorative to celebrate 150 years of the FA cup

Flooding the market. What on earth are they doing ?

No one is forcing anyone to buy it

One of those ballbag coins that will be on ebay for 80% of retail in 3 years.

I understand..... But I am waiting for some of my ordered coins since December... They should send out pending orders first before announcing new coins twice a week

[Oldun]

The avalanche of coi s being pumped out is unnecessary. This coin could easily have waited until later in the year. Seems a very odd decision.

Will there be a Gold or Silver...or just a CK versions...

[paulmerton]

Personally I can't think of a more endearing way to show your love on valentine's day than to spend half an hour in a queue to buy your dearest an FA Cup bunc.

Well I got on but I struggled to find the FA Cup material.  The good news is they have gone back to the old design for navigating the website, but they had not added "FA CUP" to the list of products! So when I did a search for "FA" this is what came up:
