In a
highly controversial move Britain has decided to remove the image of the queens
head from its stamps and coins
A
spokesman for the Royal Mint pointed out that the words “Queens Head” form one
of the most popular names of taverns or pubs ads they are known in Britain. He
explained “We do not feel that it is appropriate for people who are too young
to drink alcohol to be continually exposed to an image that is so closely
associated with licensed premises”
The
Royal mint are researching possible replacement images. So far the most popular
ideas are to replace the queens head with a red lion a white horse or a jolly
boatman.
