| 表面の説明 | Bimetallic planchet trial struck by the Royal Mint. The copper-plated nickel center features a central vignette depicting a coin assayer or mint worker seated at a screw press, with a balance scale suspended above bearing coin-laden pans on either side, symbolizing the craft of coinage and quality control. To the left and right of the central device appear the mint marks 'H' and 'KN' respectively, separated by horizontal ribbon banners. The date '1794' appears in the lower exergue on a curved ribbon below the central figure, referencing the historical origins of the Royal Mint's Llantrisant site or a historical mint reference. |

The Royal Mint struck Euro planchet trials in the late 1990s as Britain formally evaluated adoption of the single currency. These were never intended for circulation — they exist to test that foreign planchet specifications would run cleanly through UK vending machines, turnstiles, and coin-handling equipment calibrated to existing sterling tolerances. The trials preceded the 2003 referendum that never happened; Blair's government required five economic tests to be met first, and the Treasury ruled in June 2003 that four had not been satisfied.
Britain never joined. These planchets remain as the most tangible hardware record of how close the decision came.
