The Shield of the Royal Arms coin dated 2008 to 2015 is also very common to receive as change, with 374 million minted. This coin has a large shield that comes close to the edge of the coin and should not be confused with the much rarer 1988 Shield of the Royal Arms. This coin (a smaller shield with a crown on top) was issued in just one year and is not often found when checking your change. Although 7,118,825 coins entered circulation, this was a long time ago, so the actual number this design in circulation now could be much lower.
