King Charles’ coins.............

People in the UK will soon be using coins with the image of King Charles, after the first started to be struck. The new 50p coin was designed using pictures of the monarch on his 70th birthday. The reverse side of the coin is a copy of the design used on the 1953 Crown struck to commemorate the coronation of his mother, Queen Elizabeth. Sculptor Martin Jennings said it took months of painstaking work to get the image right.
