THE final batch of Queen Elizabeth II £1 coins are entering circulation across the UK, the Royal Mint has announced.

More than 23 million Queen coins are being released alongside 7.5 million new King Charles III £1 coins.

The Royal Mint said the last of the Elizabeth II coins, dated 2022, are the rarest £1 coins in active circulation.

The historic transition - with the dual release of almost 31 million coins - represents a significant moment for UK coinage, as the nation witnesses the changeover from Britain’s longest-reigning monarch to her son and heir on the £1 denomination, the Royal Mint said.

The Queen's £1 coins will be the final ones bearing Elizabeth II's portrait to enter circulation.
