King Charles' new monogram revealed and will appear on post boxes and government buildings

King Charles' new cypher has been revealed while keeping with the same tradition that his late mother followed.

The monogram will appear on government buildings, state documents, and some letterboxes in the coming years. The cypher features the initial C intertwined with the letter R for Rex (the Latin word for King) - similar to how Queen Elizabeth II's monogram has the letter R for Regina (the Latin word for Queen).

It comes after the monarch travelled to Scotland following the Queen's funeral last Monday, with the royal mourning period lasting for an additional seven days. The monogram is Charles' personal property and was selected from a series of designs prepared by the College of Arms.
