The Reverse , or tails side, of The new Coins will be The Matter of most interest to collectors and for quizmasters. They are designed to show The importance, and precariousness, of The Natural World :
Kevin Clancy, director of The Royal Mint Museum, said: " People who remember pre-decimal Coins might recall The wren farthing, or The thrift design on The 12-sided thrupence, but it wasn't lots of Natural World .
" What is different about these Coins is that they are all about The Natural World . "
There are also links to history and The changing of The Monarchy .
Three interlocking Cs feature on The Coins , representing The third King Charles , and taking its inspiration from The cypher of Charles Ii .
The Edge inscription of The new £2 Coin was chosen by The new King Charles and reads: " In servitio omnium" which means: " In The Service of all".
It was taken from his inaugural speech in September Last Year .
The Coins follow centuries of tradition with The monarch now facing left - The Opposite way to his predecessor. Profiles are alternated between left and right for successive monarchs. As with previous British kings, and unlike The Queen , he wears no crown.
New banknotes featuring The Image of King Charles are being but will not enter circulation until The Middle of next Year - Some months after The Coins .
New notes will replace damaged or worn older ones, but their introduction is slow because machines such as self-service tills need to recognise The new image.
