Money, money, money! Whether you have a lot or a little, it’s everywhere and something we think about often. But how much of that thought is spent on the way it looks? Not much it may seem unless changes in it's design force us to take notice…

To mark the release of the new British pound coin, Alex and Will discuss currency in all its forms – from the origins and uses, to the decision making behind tender revamps and how monetary aesthetics change over distance and time.

Featuring Ben Alsopp, Professor Mary Morgan and Julian Payne.
