Where is the year of minting found on a British One Pound coin?

The year of minting is not indicated on any coin, only the year of issue, which may be the same. The year of issue of the British One Pound coin is on the "heads" side. Coins issued for 2012 were very possibly minted in 2011, but could just have easily been minted in 2012 depending on requirements and demand for quantities of the coin in circulation.

Where can you get a British Five Pound coin for Five Pounds?

Although it is legal tender, the British Five Pound coin is not intended to be a circulating coin, but a collectible of a commemorative nature. In their year of issue, you should be able to buy a specimen cupro-nickel Five Pound coin from the Royal Mint for Five Pounds. Mostly, the Five Pound coin is minted as a Proof FDC coin, often in silver or gold and occasionally in platinum. The process of producing Proof FDC coins results in a finely finished coin with a mirror like finish on the flat surfaces and suitably packaged to protect it. This finishing process comes at a cost and the price of the coin increases exponentially if the coin is minted from a precious metal.
