The 1p depicts a hazel dormouse, the 2p the red squirrel, the 5p an oak tree leaf, the 10p the critically endangered woodland grouse the capercaillie, the 20p a puffin, the 50p a salmon, the £1 sees two bees and the £2 coin features a rose for England, a daffodil for Wales, a thistle for Scotland and a shamrock for Northern Ireland.

I like them, I'd like to think that I had a big bag of national flowers & bees at home that were worth something!

MelissaLee1 suppose it depends on how many coins of each they put into circulation but i think collectors will keep hold of these ones.

They are lovely designs, I like them, I especially like the £2, I’m surprised this isn’t the £1 one as it’s more popular and the current £1 has a similar design idea representing the nations
