King Charles III changes the UK coins and now they will have these designs

When we think of royalty, the first thing that comes to mind is eccentricity, and it is that over the years, we have seen that people like to have collectibles and especially if they are coins.

When we see a coin or a banknote, many times they have different faces and now it has been the turn of the current king of the UK, who has already shown his new commemorative coins.

King Charles III is already on the throne and with that many modifications in the crown, which means new coins, which have an allusion to the flora or fauna, a theme that has been constantly repeated by the King and now we can find it in the physical economy of the country.

Now we can find the following flora and fauna on the coins:

1p: Hazel dormouse. In honor of the hazel dormouse population.
2p:Red squirrel. Since most of its UK population is found in areas of Scotland.
5p: Oak leaf. Oak, which supports more life than any other native tree species in the UK.
10p: Capercaillie- Species in danger of extinction.
20p: Puffin. Classified as a Red List species.
50p: Atlantic salmon. Wild populations are low due to factors such as river pollution.
£1: Bees. These hard-working insects play a vital role in the pollination of many plants and fruit trees.
£2: National flowers.

Rebecca Morgan, director of commemorative coins at the Royal Mint, stated that “We expect some of the denominations to start circulating before the end of this year” and that they will be introduced according to demand.

The reason for this design is to make “a nod to King Charles III’s commitment to conservation”, explains Anne Jessopp.

What do you think about it? Would you get a coin as a collectible?
