Jesus... you're a little ray of sunshine, aren't you. Her mother lived to be over 100.


My Dad said it looks like the old thruppeny bit... and is worth about the same.

Maybe they will keep the keyring thing rather than using coins, that would make more sense.

Apparently one of the reasons they changed it was because circular pound coins are really easy to forge

imagine ALL the vending machine, self service checkout tills etc they'll have to change D:

I dont get why people would bother forging a pound coin. If you have the time and stuff, do twenty quid note or something :laugh:

does it really take that much thought to think "hey, if she dies, maybe they'll use the image of Charles' profile instead"?
