    I love them all. Such a great surprise and relief to see some new coins! Although I did for a moment think the £1 coin had flies on it. They should have used the bumblebee in my opinion!

    Thanks for the video. Didn't notice before that the year was on the outside of the Pound coin.
    I think they should have kept the Britannia, maybe with a tweak to insert the cipher.
    They could have put a Pike on the 50p to avoid the connection to the old Irish coin.
    At the moment I think the Red Squirrel has to be to the favourite.
    BTW Capercaille is a good Scottish band as well.

    Hi Paul,
    I commented to LFTA video, yesterday about the old George V 6d & 3d coins designed by Kruger Gray having 3 & 6 acorns each and it would have been better for continuity to have had 5 acorns on the 5p. So I'm glad other people feel the same. As for Percy Metcalf's salmon on the Irish 2/- and 10p I do like his designs (especially the rocking horse Crown) I think the new Salmon design is more stylised perhaps? My favourite is the 5p with the acorns. Can anyone tell me why the designers initials are not on the coins?

      Hi Dave, lot's people are saying the fish is their least favourite. The old threepence had three acorns and the sixpence had six acorns in the design. The new 5p has three acorns. It would have made more sense for it to have five.

    I am from Northern Ireland when i was younger we used to go on day trips across the border into the Republic of Ireland, and this was in the old pre euro days i would bring back the old irish punt in change and then the UK 50p and the Irish 50p were the same size so after school swimming lessons we would put the Irish 50p into the vending machines and buy a coke with them and back then the exchange rate for the Irish punt against the UK pound was bad so we were ripping off the coke machines LOL

    Just don't like them. If they'd done something like the farthing, with the bird in the middle and the denomination and year on the top and the bottom, that'd've been so much better. These just look like toy money with the big numbers and letters. Also, why *all* animals? Unlike some small, obscure countries, we've so much history to be proud of to put on our money beyond our wildlife. No heraldry, coats of arms, Tudor roses, Prince of Wales feathers, Britannias or portcullises? Just such a wasted opportunity. They look too "flashy", too "modern" for coins which need to tie in with some centuries-old designs.

    The new designs are better than the 2008 shield designs but the heavy animal theme looks cartoonish and childish, and doesn’t really portray our rich history and national identity.
    My favourite is the 5p with oak leaves reminiscent of the old sixpences and threepences.
    No heraldry, national emblems, nor Charles’ actual royal cypher. The replacement of the gorgeous cruciform shields of the Queen Memorial 50p with a gurt big fish is a disaster!

    I also like the coins 🪙 they are much better than the coins making that silly shield 🛡 😊 Thanks for Sharing Paul 👍

      Yes, you're right. The shield was a silly design. I'm glad it's being replaced.

    Love them. The £1 is a truly beautiful coin.
