  1. maybe they give it to the son or keep it to the bank  


  2. They will do what they did when King George died and Elizabeth became Queen. It's not a new thing they need to work out.

  3. they will give you some stickers with a picture of the next idiot on to stick on your existing money

  4. It will be phased out, the new coins will have the new Monarch's head embossed on them which will be facing the opposite way.  Don't know why this is. Tradition? Edward VII broke with tradition as he thought his profile looked better from one side than on the other - and he didn't even get to be crowned King!

  5. The money is kept in circulation. Notes with the new sovereign's likeness is put into circulation as well. Gradually,the old monarch's notes are collected and replaced with the new sovereign's notes.

  6. Banknotes actually don't last very long. They need to be replaced every few years anyway.

  7. They continue using it, printing new money with Charles' head or William's, if Charles dies first ( a possibility).

    I have piles of King George coins and I've even run across Queen Victoria pennies.

  8. It will gradually be taken out of circulation and slowly replaced with new notes. It won't become in valid.

  9. Money will still be a legal tender, it will be slowly phased out, and be replaced with the Monarch of the day.

  10. By order of Parliament,the notes will be phased out and replaced with the picture of the new monarch on the new notes.

  11. When I was a kid, pre-decimal coins had the heads of several previous monarchs on them. Bloody long time ago, like.

  12. The next time money is minted it will bear the head of the new monarch.  Money can stay in circulation even if it was not minted in the current reign, when I was young there were still coins from the previous monarch (George VI) in circulation.

  13. when queen elizabeth was crowned 1953 the old king George V stayed on coins and bank notes that were already legal tender prior to that all the change you got was nealy always some old past King or Queen some coins dating back to Queen Victoria 1833 crowned it was only once that the u.k changed to decimal coins in 1971 that these started to disappear you can still see coins prior to 1971 and are still cheap for starting a collection around 30p for the old penny its the rarer ones that are expensive like a proof of Edward V111 the metal like silver or gold even more.Once the the king is crowned new coinage will take around six mouths to get into general use

  14. Skull and cross bones

  15. the coins will still be legal just as before we had decimalisation the coins were mixed heads ............

    and the notes change due to design anyhow and thru wear and tear..................

    have pennies dating back to victoria

  16. Change the new issues to the next Monarch's head and keep the old coins/notes in circulation. That's all that ever happens. You can still use the coins or notes - it is the 'promise to pay'/value on them that is important, not the face or relief portrait.

    As notes wear out, they will be replaced with new ones. Coins can stay around for decades or longer.

  17. When there is a new monarch they will start making new money reflecting that then set a cut off date and as the old money goes back into the banking system it will gradually be replaced by the new stuff or at least that's how I believe it works.

  18. Get another old broad who looks like her and make her queen.

  19. it´s her stupid family

  20. The money will still be legal tender. New coinage with the head of the new monarch will be gradually introduced and that of Elizabeth II gradually withdrawn, until one day all circulating monies will have the current monarch's head on it.

  21. It continues in circulation as it has with previous monarchs.

    The previous currency was only withdrawn because of decimalisation in the 1970s

  22. It will be invalid per immediate.

    You better spend it all now it still has some value.

  23. Same thing that always happens with the money...they begin printing money with (one would assume) Charles' image on it.  The old money is still good, and eventually, it becomes collectible.  People stop using the older money, and keep it in their homes in boxes and jars, or put them in coin/bill albums.  I have a couple of pennies from Canada with George V's image.  Probably not worth much more than about 10 cents, but they're a curiosity.

    You DO realize that they don't stop printing money while the Queen is reigning?  that there are new bills and coins being minted daily, and old ones being destroyed, because they are worn out?

  24. Give Prince Charles a wig and a makeover.

  25. They will gradually phase it out and replace it with Prince Charles face ( or WIlliams, depends who becomes King) but it will not be recalled.


  26. " Give it to me of course , silly question lol x*x"
