Proceeding contribution from Christopher Pincher (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 4 February 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Coinage (Measurement) Bill.
Coinage (Measurement) Bill
My hon. Friend mentions the motto of the Olympics, ““Faster, Higher, Stronger””, which I think in Latin is ““Citius, Altius, Fortius””. Given that we are likely to have the heaviest coin ever circulated in the United Kingdom, would it be sensible to add ““Gravius””—heavier—to the motto on the coins?
