We did but reverted to the paper ones soon enough (was/is it actually paper?). We also had pound coins before the Adjacent Isles. More like a sixpenny bit than any of the current formats with a core forming a magnetic 'key', to deter forgers or facilitate slot machines I know not. They, too, did not last long.
