Hi Stackers,
Sad news in the UK. King Charles is hospitalized after doctors found out that his prostate complaints had to do with cancer. Ofcourse if anything can be done they will do it so fingers crossed but it is far from nice ofcourse.
Now the coin link!
As you can see in above example,relating to the Tudor series, the portrait of the King is only just being used in coins datin 2023 where some (not UK) countries decided to not continue wiht his portrait on coins at all. As you know Canada and Australia are not ruled in any (official) way by King Charles.
So this lovely Tudor (Queens Beasts was the old series name, but the Queen is dead!) series is now carrying the portrait of Charles but if things do not end well this might be only a short period.
But as said already at the start, let's be positive and wait for the outcome.
Chin up Charles!
regards
