The Royal Mint have seen my articles on the 2017 Britannia and they want me to apologise to the designer and the Royal Mint, to take down all my videos and articles criticising the 2017 Britannia and not to attack any of there designs in the future and I must sign a declaration doing this.
And in the future if I slam of do a video and articles ridiculing there products I would face time in prison for my crime, plus they would not let me buy any coins from the Royal Mint, this is something I had to think long and hard about and in discussions with the Royal Mint I told them I would
No I said go FUCK yourself,
So I need you help and I am doing a poll if you like the 2017 Britannia reply Like, and if you hate the 2017 Britannia reply Hate, and please up vote as well as I have a special prize for one of you
lol, i am enjoying your posts. Considering i bought one i had better vote like. Actually i do like it, to be honest if Britannia put on a few stone and was captured sat on a park bench eating a hotdog id still like it, its silver and its shiny, whats not to like.

True, it is still a chunk of silver. I see what they did, it was them using the image of the country isle as the body for the Britannia but it has a flaw in that it makes the design look like she is sitting on the trident ... but the rest is history, britcoin has won the award for this description. If you ask me it seems that this putting a country and sticking arms and head on it like this Usually is a cartoon image. This is a little bit hasty in them just going for this design.

Over the last few days, I've seen a few references to a certain shed the designer should be taken out behind, so that's probably the kind of rhetoric they really object to. Anything else is just bad for sales, but they probably have to start talking libel when it's a perceived threat to an actual person? I'm no lawyer, so this is just speculative waffling from me.

Wow. That's quite the ultimatum. You could just buy through a proxy, a friend or family member, so it's a bit of a silly threat when you think of it. They have to protect their designer and any potential customers scared off by the criticism, naturally. But legal action against critical reviews is stepping over a mark, if that's how they phrased it. The Silver Forum has a lot of people vocally unhappy about it.. will there be deleted posts there soon too?
This is just one of the threads where it gets a critical mention:

I considered buying this coin, even though I hate the design. Because of all the marmite type chat about it, you know you either love it or hate it!! I thought it would be a super popular coin. Maybe the wanted video was upsetting to the designer, just take it down. They can't give you jail time for disliking a coin design, if so all the film and fashion critics better watch out!

Just Reading This. WTF happened to freedom of speech.
So There saying you cant be honest and speak the truth. The coin is being ridiculed because people are speaking truthful and saying its fucking awful 99% are genuinely saying it looks like shes taking a dump.
The only positive comments are from people trying to pump it.
Someone at royal mint should have grown a pair and said are you fucking serious that looks awful. But unfortunately we are living in a world were people wont speak up for fear of offending someone.
What about if someone is offended that they cant speak openly and truthful does that count.
I too would have told them to fuck off.
Not only do I Hate It I'm thinking what a great job the Chinese did with the bimetallic anniversary panda.
Then Royal mint Founded since 886 AD come up with this. Its nothing to be proud about is it.

I would say having an opinion on the coin is fine, but making statements about the designer himself is making it personal. I mean, as a designer, he does have the freedom to design as he pleases. The design being "bad" is subjective. I feel like the poor kid should be left out of any criticism. No need to be hateful to a person <3 Just my opinion.

Hate. It is by far the worst design the mint has released. Yes it's still gold/silver and yes I'd still take 1 if it were offered to me and yes I may even end up buying 1. The mint knows that as a collector they can pretty much do as they please and charge what ever they want cause what collection would be Complete if a 2017 was missing. It's not for me sorry I DO NOT LIKE this design.

This is not good news. But I am on the side of Britcoin!! ;) Those were videos of he own opinion and not an attack. Those people are so sensitive to criticism they are willing to do things.
I remember last year they locked up "Pastor D" from Britain for making a You Tube video against the Pope and a high ranking Church in England. So they are beginning to crack down slowly. We must be careful, but stand for our rights to just talk about what we want to. We shouldn't have to whisper about not liking a product that is made, for fear of being jailed for saying anything critical about a product made by a vendor. We are truly living in times all across the world that have never been.
