62-year-old post office worker discovers 'goldmine' after receiving £1 coin stamped with King Charles' face

Diane Bath, from the North East, spoke to the Sun after staff spotted that a £1 coin in the delivery appeared to be entirely gold.
A Post Office worker in Cumbria has discovered a "goldmine" after receiving a delivery of coins stamped with King Charles' face.
The first coins featuring the new monarch were released in 2022, following Queen Elizabeth II's death.
All UK coins bearing the effigy of Elizabeth II will remain legal tender and in active circulation.
The Queen’s Panther is the latest beast to join The Royal Tudor Beasts Collection.

The 62-year-old, from the North East, spoke to the Sun after staff noticed that a £1 coin in the delivery appeared to be entirely gold.
The error by The Royal Mint meant that it was all brass, rather than the two-tone nickel.
It is thought to be an "incredibly rare" mistake and a one-of-a-kind error. Speaking to the tabloid, Diane said: "I am absolutely over the moon.
"Obviously we handle cash all of the time and it’s the most exciting find I’ve ever had in over two decades.
"I had a look online and couldn’t see one like it, so I knew it must be worth a decent amount."
Oliver Reece, British Coin Specialist at Baldwin’s, said: “It may not be unique but certainly they are, by their very nature, rare things and the market is quite strong for modern errors.
"I should think it would be worth a good few hundred pounds but you never know how these things will go at auction as there are often no direct comparisons.”
A Royal Mint spokeswoman said: “The Royal Mint has tight quality controls in place and the chance of encountering any UK coin with error is exceptionally low.
“We always urge collectors to be cautious and to do their research.”
