What are the patterns of six traditional British coins?

Commonly used pound coins are: 1 penny, 2p, 5p, 1 0p, 20p, 50p,1pound, pound and so on. All coins have statues of the British monarch on the front, and coins minted in different administrative regions have different patterns except the currency value on the back. But no matter which administrative district the coins were minted in, they are all common in the whole country.

The design of British coins is usually more traditional and conservative, and the queen's head is even more indispensable. However, the current set of coins is a brand-new design coin launched by the British Mint in 2005. This is the first time that a new coin has been minted in Britain in the past 40 years, and its face value ranges from 1p to 1p respectively. Only 65,438+0p coins have old designs. The designer of this set of coins is Matthew. At that time, 26-year-old Dent defeated 4,000 other competitors in the 2005 competition with his novel design, won the crown with the appreciation of the Royal Mint, and was successfully hired by the state.
