How England’s Currency Will Change After Queen Elizabeth’s Death

King Charles III‘s portrait will soon make an appearance in wallets.

Following the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, the Bank of England will print new banknotes featuring Charles, who became King upon his mother’s death on Sept. 8. For those who are wondering whether your Queen Elizabeth bills will soon become a relic of the past, the Bank of England issued a release that details how Her Majesty will continue to be remembered through the country’s currency.

The late Monarch has appeared on the banknotes since 1960, after the UK Treasury granted the Bank of England permission in 1954 to user her portrait on the currency. The Bank of England currently circulates £5 with Winston Churchill, £10 with Jane Austen, £20 with JMW Turner and £50 with Alan Turing banknotes—soon to join them will be Charles’ portrait.
