New British Coins


Unveiled a few weeks ago, the new British Coins of the Pound Sterling present a cohesive design to the seven coins. The design ingeniously divides the British Royal Shield into six sections on the back of six coins, and uses the pound coin as a reference to the shield's entirety. Design details can be found at the Royal Mint.

How crazy. It reminds me of getting trading cards as a kid and putting the backs together to make one big image.
