the monarchy will end along with the effigies on our coinage.


That will NEVER happen.

The Queen is already 90 years old and I think within 10-25 years she will be succeeded by a new ruler.


So you think the Queen will live to be 100-115 years old? I certainly wouldn't bet against it!

I actually have never been a fan of this rendition.
I rather liked the 1990-2003.5 image on our coinage.

I preferred the 1953-1964 portrait and in second place I liked the 1965-1989 portrait.

I would like to see a new bust in place of the cleaning lady...

And I think 10 to 15 years is optimistic, although for the queen's sake I hope she is around that long.

I'd be surprised if anyone turns down being king - how many jobs like that are there around?

I think the concept of Mulroney Harper or PET on our coins should be enough to keep the regal effigy hung onto for at least a millennium.....
