Rarest bank notes and coins featuring Queen Elizabeth II – that could be worth up to £270

HER Majesty The Queen has featured on our bank and coins for the past 70 years.

The Queen reigned from 1952, so many of us will only ever remember having her face on our change.

The most recent image of the Queen on coins is the fifth portrait, designed by Jody Clark. 

Meanwhile, on British notes a similar image of the Queen has been in place since the 90s.

Designs will need to be updated once King Charles ascends to the throne - this happened when the Queen’s father George VI, the former King of England, passed too.

The current circulating designs will be discontinued and a new design that represents the new head of state will replace them.

But it won’t all happen straight away.

Any coins or notes you have on you now will still be legal tender for a while yet.

We don’t know exactly when each design will be removed from circulation, but we will update this story once we know more.

Production of coins won’t abruptly stop either - the same goes for notes.

We've found the rarest bank note, 50p coin and £1 coin featuring Queen Elizabeth II that are still in circulation.

If you do have any of these coins, you could make a profit by selling them on eBay.

You can compare other rare coins on the online auction site to get an idea of how much they can be worth.

But ultimately the value of the coin depends on the eyes of the bidders.
