Because there is an estimated 40 million fake £1 coins out there, they are now changing the £1 coin.
This might be of news to the coin collectors of WP to try and get the real £1 coins before they disappear into thin air, but this is especially annoying news for businesses in the UK, like slot machines, shopping trolleys, phone boxes, vending machines, coin weighing machines, parking meters, you name it, will all have to be changed/adapted.
