There was a time in our history where that would be viewed as treason and those responsible would be transported to one of the colonies Aus/US. and rightly so.
There is a reason why mints only make coins using the side angle of peoples faces, not the front of their faces…
And this is why.
You should have seen how the ultra-royalists were losing their sh.t online at some of the comments that were made about the coin, mate!
Here are some of my personal choice comment selections:
One read:
Were they watching one of the Shrek movies when they were designing that coin?
Another one asked:
Is that Mrs. Doubtfire?! Are we commemorating the passing of Robin Williams?
And so forth, and so forth…
