No doubt be that any coin in circulation will continue to be struck, however, for ordinary use coins that may be few if any at all due to numbers already in circulation. The sovereign would be different, but will continue, certainly the bullion ones. Any new commemorative coin that is likely to have 2023 date on may be a different matter for obvious reasons?

Whatever any speculation is, it will all get sorted and any new coins with the King on will no doubt sell out immediately, after the usual big question on the Mint site!

The mint hasn't made any UK circulation coins for over 20 weeks I believe. They have crates and crates of previously minted coins in their long store and I'd be surprised if those aren't enough to last for the rest of the year. Apparently there are even some 2016-dated £2 coins still in there that haven't yet entered circulation!
