I think I like this design better than the last one.  :)

I like how the font is similar to the old Churchill coin, the 1965 1 Crown. http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces6898.html

My dad has a small hoard of the 1965 Churchill coins, and I'm sure I have a couple somewhere that he gave me when I was a kid.
How much are these new ones going for?

This silver coin has a face value of 20 pounds and that is the shelling price as well.

The 5 pound coin they released this year is being sold by the Royal Mint for 13 pounds.

The 1965 Churchill coin is a very common one, so they should be fairly cheap to get one.
