did Jamie Farr model for that profile?


I do wonder how accurate that depiction is. Was his nose even larger and they shrunk it to fit on the coin, or smaller and expanded it for some reason?

"Are you absolutely sure that it'll be OK to leave the lion and kangaroo in the same enclosure?" the zoo CEO asked his chief keeper. "I mean, they seem to be getting along OK right now, but what if the lion feels hungry in the middle of the night?"
