I can't "imagine" that someone who returned his MBE would have wanted a memorial coin from the Royal Mint.

I'm sure Liz Truss or Boris Johnson would love one though, so maybe they should make one for them.

Look out for a 1933 penny worth £200,000.

Shirley Bassey has a special coin minted for her? I like Shirley Bassey, but it rather devalues the honour. She had along and successful career, but hardly changed the world.

What is it about Shirley Bassey that got the award? Singing Bond theme songs? Her charity work? Being black?

I'm sure it was one of these.
