Here's one you don't see often - Philip and Mary Sixpence from the short period when both their heads appeared on the coinage. (Philip was never "King" of England but as a monarch (of Spain) in his own right he insisted his head appear on Mary's coinage.) These coins were unpopular at the time and even more so after Mary's death when Elizabeth I took the reins and steered the country back towards Protestantism.
