Played around for a bit and made some rough modifications to demonstrate what I think would look good.
The letters seemed far too big originally, I hated the corn kernals and am pretty sure they'd look far worse on a coin. Brought the main design higher and slightly increased the size.

As long as the kiwi keeps being cute you have my vote, fren. The second I in "Kiwi" looks a lil wrong but that could just be me and my cross-eyed self.

Chris did make one and take a picture but it was not a proper profile shot so the current draft was based on am earlier picture of Chris. The artist said adding the crown would complicate things. I'd still like to see a mock-up. Alottapeepul who are saying "why Chris" or "no Chris" are missing out on the fact that half the joke is that he is supposed to be taking the place of the queen on commonwealth coins. I think the crown helps sell the joke and you might as well commit to it if you're doing it at all but I'm also not opposed to just Chris as is. A coin has to have a face on it and his is as good as any others. I'm not sure what those opposed to Chris think should be on the coin that would retain the appearance of being something resembling a currency (but distinct enough to avoid any whiff of legal issues. Feds go home.)

ETA: Having the coins minted in the UK would be icing on the joke cake too. Just think of it as depriving the Brits of their actually valuable silver in exchange for worthless monopoly numbers on a spreadsheet if you have problems with "enriching" the Anglo menace.

Also the post from earlier in the thread with the photo Chris took and the Photo the current design was based on:

I am sold on the concept of Chris in the place of the Queen on Commonwealth coinage, but not the current portrait. It really needs to be redone, and as stated some kind of simple tiara or coronet really needs to be on his head as well. The backside looks perfect imo.

Can we replace the picture of Chris with a picture of the un-clit?

I'm flattered, and I'll sell Null the rights cheaper then OPL will! ;-)

I'm only against the Chris design purely because a good majority here seem to be A-OK with letting him be a tranny dumbass. It's just extremely forced. I'd rather see a genuinely "iconic" side of Chris if you're going to spend this much effort putting him on a coin, especially if this is supposed to be a collectors item for years to come.

i dont think the chris side looks like chris, its hard to get peoples likeness stamped, kiwi side is perfect though, maybe go with a sonichu on the otherside, ive always liked this one

I would LOVE a Sonichu variant. But I suppose Sonichu is technically Chris's intellectual property? (Any lawyers care to chime in?)

I would definitely buy Sonichu variants and give them out as gifts. Maybe I'd wear one as a medallion.
