The new series of £10, £20, and £50 notes are not the only currency that the Bank of England has released this year. They have also released a brand-new batch of 25, 50, and 100 pence coins. These new coins are made from a special mixture of metals, which makes them harder to counterfeit than the old ones. The new coins are also slightly bigger and thicker than before. The previous penny has been withdrawn from general circulation and can no longer be used in vending machines, hotels or car parks, etc. This means that you cannot directly exchange old pennies for new ones at your bank branch any longer; you have to exchange them in batches of 5 or 10 at special counters. The same goes for other small changes like halfpennies, which you can no longer use to pay for things directly but instead have to deposit in special containers at your bank branch or post office branch.
Commemorating the 200 years of the Royal Mint
On the 2nd of March, 1816, the Royal Mint in East London produced its first gold sovereign coin as part of the United Kingdom's move away from the old silver standard. The Royal Mint is the world's oldest manufacturing company that has been making coins for almost three centuries. It has produced coins for Britain, as well as many other countries, ever since its inception. The Royal Mint's headquarters are in Westminster, London, right next to the Houses of Parliament. It has a staff of around 900 employees working in five separate locations across the country. The Royal Mint produces coins not only for the United Kingdom but also for several other countries, including Australia, New Zealand, Canada, some Caribbean nations, and many other countries. The Royal Mint is also responsible for producing British coins, commemorative coins, medals, and other items like blimps, signage, and even jewelry. The Royal Mint also offers coin-collecting services and has a large online store where you can purchase a variety of items.
What are the new coins made of?
The new £10, £20, and £50 coins are made from a special mixture of metals. The metals used in these coins include nickel-brass and nickel-plated alloy. The new £5 coin is made of nickel-plated steel. The new £1 and £2 coins are made from a special type of plastic called "polymer". The new 25, 50, and 100 pence coins are made from a different type of metal called "magnetic alloy".
New £10 note
The new £10 note is made from a special plastic called "graphic paper", which is harder to counterfeit than ordinary paper. The new note features an image of artist J. M. W. Turner's painting of the steamboat "The Fighting Temeraire", which is being hauled to the scrapyard. The image depicts a crucial historical moment, as steamboats were instrumental in the development of modern transport. The note also has a "rolling barcode" that changes color when you tilt the note. This is intended to make the message more secure and harder to counterfeit. The back of the note features an image of the East London skyline, including the iconic Battersea Power Station, which is also now being used as an arts venue.

The new £20 note is dark blue, featuring images of mathematician and computer scientist Charles Babbage and Victorian engineer and inventor Matthew Murray.

The note is made from a special type of plastic called "graphic paper", which is harder to counterfeit than ordinary paper. The note also has several other security features, including a "rolling barcode" and an image of "abacus beads" that move when you tilt the note.
