New Coins, No Britannia

[nivrip]

Do you like the new coins which are to be introduced?

They have been termed "The Jigsaw Coins" as they all have parts of the Queen's coat of arms on them and the full set can be arranged to display it.

Also, we are losing Britannia from our coins - she has been present since 1672. Shame really, I thought she had a certain presence and was very "British."

Suppose we'll get used to the new ones.

Well what do you expect from this bunch of so called politicians. The very thought of some thing being "British" is an embarressment to them and has to be expunged pronto.
