Another view of the new British reverses
Apr. 3rd, 2008 07:31 amI like the unified theme.
Still the same person on the obverse, though. I'd like to see sovereigns like our US Presidents, because there are so many more difficult situations. All we have to worry about is "does anyone still care that Buchanan was worse than Bush could ever be?"
The Brits have to deal with questions like "Do we put Jane, the Nine Days Queen, on a coin?" and "Is it tacky to show just the head of Charles I?" and "Is Williamandmary really a single, two-headed, siameese twin of a Sovereign?"
We should do more of that!
