About the Book

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 31.

The circulating coins, excepting the two-pound coin, were redesigned in 2008, keeping the sizes and compositions unchanged, but introducing reverse designs that each depict a part of the Royal Shield of Arms and form the whole shield when they are placed together in the appropriate arrangement.
