Whatever happened to those alphabet 10p pieces where each letter represented something quintessentially English ?

I saw one pre-lockdown and nothing since. Maybe those with Liz on may be quite rare

Glory days of funky currency!



I recently became the proud owner of a very shiny 50p piece, dated 2017 that has a frog on it saying Mr Jeremy Fisher.

My inestigations tell me that this coin is worth 50p.

I've got an old 10 baht note with the previous Thai King on it (died 2016).
My thai missus is adamant its 'ultra rare' as they've being 10 baht coins for years. I checked and found its worth exactly 10 baht. (25p)

my Thai missus knows, but they're very royalist in Thailand,
In fact so much so, 'The King and I' is banned
as it's seen as disrespectful to King Mongkut (Rama IV)

Sadly we are.

I wonder if any new post boxes will have C3PO on them. I would like that
