<div class='featuredimage'><img src='https://coinsnotebook.com/wp-content/uploads/James-Bond-007-Series-RM.jpg' alt='James Bond 007 Series RM' /></div><br>The Royal Mint have launched their much awaited James Bond 007 coins. The first coin is available from today.<br />
<br />
<em>Update: All three coins now available from the <a href="https://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=GqmaHevdQfI&amp;offerid=572377.24418&amp;type=3&amp;subid=0" target="new" rel="noopener noreferrer">Royal Mint Shop</a><img src="https://ad.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/show?id=GqmaHevdQfI&amp;bids=572377.24418&amp;type=3&amp;subid=0" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" /><br>.</em><br />
<br />
The three coins fit together to form a James Bond 007 motif, showing his classic Aston Martin DB5 car with the &apos;Bond, James Bond&apos; phrase; the second coin shows a car transformed into another vehicle (looks like the submarine &apos;Wet Nelly&apos; from <em>The Spy Who Loved Me</em>), with a note from gadget master &apos;Q&apos; telling Bond to &apos;Pay Attention 007&apos;; finally the suave dresser who likes his Martinis shaken and not stirred.<br />
<br />
The reverse of the first of the James Bond coins to be released shows the front of James Bond&apos;s most famous car - the Aston Martin DB5. It is overlayed by a giant &apos;0&apos;, which will eventually form &apos;007&apos; when added to the other coins in the series (see image above).<br />
