On MSN today:
- It has been announced our pound coin is changing. The new coin has 12 sides, will be made of two metals and is thought to be the most secure coin in the world.
The reverse side of the coin - the tails - shows the English rose, the Welsh leek, the Scottish thistle and the Northern Irish shamrock emerging from one stem within a royal coronet. It is the first replacement in over in thirty years and will start being circulated in March 2017. By Autumn next year, you won’t be able to use the old coin in shops.
There will be 1.5 billion new coins produced, and the new coins will hopefully reduce the damaging costs caused by counterfeits.
