What would you put on our UK Coinage?
It’s been over a year since the New UK Coinage for King Charles III was released, featuring 8 brand new designs from the 1p to the £2!
Since the designs were revealed, the Salmon 50p and the Bee £1 have entered circulation and collectors have been rushing to find them in their change – especially the 2023 Salmon 50p which is now the UK’s rarest 50p!
British Flora and Fauna
Each of the new coins featured not only a new obverse design of King Charles III, but new reverse designs paying tribute to iconic British wildlife. His Majesty is known for his keen interest in wildlife conservation and plant life, and this passion was a key inspiration for The Royal Mint when designing the UK’s new coinage.
But we want to know, if you were to design the UK’s new coins, what would you put on them?
Have your say
We’d love to know what you think of the 8 new designs that we’ll eventually see replace our current circulating coinage, which current coins you’ll miss the most and of course, what you’d put on our UK coins!
Perhaps you’re a keen churchgoer and would select some of the UK’s most iconic churches to feature on our coins? Or maybe you’d have each coin celebrating a quintessential British food? The choice is yours!
