Sometimes the Royal Mint markets £5 commemorative coins like this, and it does rather undermine the essential principal than the issue be genuine and worth £5 as legal tender. Nobody would go to the trouble of posting you a £5 note postfree for £5 .

Rogermo: If it is too good to be true,it cannot be true............not in this case.As a Canadian if I order material frpm Canada Post I pay a GST but no postage for the goods;if you live outside of Canada your purchases from Canada Post are both tax free and postage free.I collect Sir Winston Churchill and for a number of years I have purchased new issues which are not that numerous directly from various Philatelic Bureaux around the world at face rather than paying the mark up of dealers and there are a surprising number of these enterprises that do not charge for return postage.Some are quite small and possibly by not charging for postage they hope to build up a client base.....St.Helena,British Indian Ocean Territories,Falkland Islands are a few that come to mind and of course Canada Post until further notice.I should point out that once Canada Post gets you to their site they are keen to sell you other stuff.........a Churchill tee shirt,Churchill drinking glasses.........all a grand ploy to sell you something but you can always resist and just buy your stamps at face and leave.
