2021 UK New Coin Release Ideas

[LawrenceChard]

I have already added half a dozen new UK coin proposals, but Doug has been feeling inspired, so:

 

OK, so that one is Untied Kingdom rather than United Kingdom (still UK though!).

100 Bawbies = 1 Kankie doesn't it? 🙂

Never heard of a Kankie, and can't find any mention relating to coins or money.

Some people think unicorns don't exist, though.

Doug got the spelling of bawbee wrong though, here is the correct spelling:

That's wee Jimmy Krankie on the coin.

William and Kate?

What other coin design has anyone's teeth in it?

Alas!

Dead right!

[GoodAsGold]

How about the 300th anniversary of this British export? The coin design might be similar to the Shakespeare one above though.

Bawbees are a thing of the past in Scotland. We need something more relevant to today.

Bawbags would be more appropriate. Good luck with that design!

[GoodAsGold]

We need a Scottish Mint to produce the Scottish coins of the future (euros maybe).

No more of your wee daft milk spots. It’s Irn Bru and whisky spots up here.

Apologies for this. I didn’t get much sleep last night.

If Amy sees that, it could be in our next coin quiz.

I just read a few paragraphs and discovered there were early anti-vax idiots!

I'd like to see a new release of a British soldier of the line from Waterloo era, stood atop a pile of dead Frenchies, presented in a mahogany box engraved with a victorious British Army marching over the crumbled remains of dead Freenchies, with the box's key made out of bone from a dead Frenchies finger.

"MEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHH!"

Would it help our Brexit negotiations, do you think?

2021 UK Silver £5 Five Pounds Crown Prince Philip 100th Birthday Receives Telegram From His Wife

... if he makes it!

[Stuntman]

That'd be a great coin 😁
However:

a) "Love Elizabeth xx"?  Clearly that would be from his fancy-woman (some filly from the Shires, 74 years his junior) rather than Her Maj.

b) Ear hair suspiciously absent from the design.  Forget milk spots, this coin will have surface protrusions and be liable to wax spotting.

c) Plenty of scope for special editions, each with speech-bubbles containing various phrases that would result in an instant full house in Diversity Built Britain buzzword bingo...

😉😉

That design looks like mainland Europe is a person bending over (Iberia is the head, Italy the arms etc) and then farting the Baltic republics out of its backside.

The north of Ireland is a major headache for both countries.

Can't wait for the year end to see how it plays out.
