I find the UK one-pound coins really sexy. Shiny and gold, and twice as thick. They really *feel* their worth. I prefer them as souvenirs, over most purchasable souvenirs. [I also bought a Canadian looney and tooney on ebay, as virtual souvenirs, even though I hadn't recently travelled to Canada.]

I wish the US would make dollar coins like the UK's pound coins. But perhaps it's because I only visit there occasionally, and don't have to carry the extra weight all the time.
