Can anybody tell me what the back of the new UK 1p coin is supposed to resemble?

Question

Part of it looks like a football trainer with a bit of a tennis court net in show. Aher part of the coin looks like the rear of 2 aircraft. I'm confused??

Answer 1

it represents the portcullis ( like a drawbridge) at arundel castle in south england

Answer 2

It is just being changed from the Portcullis to a part of the royal standard.  It fits with the other coins to make up a sort of representation of the whole thing.  c**p if you ask me.  Why do they have to meddle with these things?

Answer 3

Bits & pieces of everything UK(they think).

Answer 4

Put it together with the other coins and.... tadaa!

Look at the picture
