Prince William is set to celebrate his 40th birthday next month - and a new commemorative £5 is being released to mark the day.
The Royal Mint, the UK's official coin producer, has revealed William's face will feature on the special coin ahead of his birthday on June 21.
It is the first time that William, who is second in line to the throne, will appear alone on an official coin struck by the Royal Mint.
It looks as though the coin's portrait has been based on a photo taken of William in 2018 at the UK Ambassador's residence in Amman, Jordan.
However, some royal fans have been left slightly baffled by the depiction of William on the coin.
One took to Twitter and wrote: "Whoever engraved this coin were kind enough to give William a bit more hair than he actually has got!!"
Another said: "The £5 coin to mark Prince William's 40th birthday has more hair than he does."
While one remarked: "With that much hair it doesn’t look like Wills anymore."

However, there were plenty of other royal fans who loved the coin, with one writing on Twitter: "Fantastic gift to commemorate his 40th birthday, the coin captures Prince William’s handsome features and his resilience well!"
Clare Maclennan, director of commemorative coins at the Royal Mint, said: "The elegant design features a portrait of HRH alongside his royal cypher and the number 40, which pays homage to the maturity and grace of the prince who has become a senior member of the royal family, a devoted husband and a loving father of three, through the eyes of the world.
“Marking this extra special occasion, we have also struck a limited edition gold coin made with 5oz of fine gold and struck in high relief to elevate the artistry of the design.
“Our limited edition precious metal coins combine fine craftsmanship and rarity, making them an attractive keepsake for collectors and investors.”

Alongside the new £5 coin, a limited edition two-coin set will be released, featuring a 0.25oz gold celebration coin and a 1982 sovereign coin - the year the duke was born.
The collection will also include a limited edition coin made of 5oz of fine gold quality to mark the special occasion, with laser technology creating a "high relief finish", giving William's portrait an enhanced 3D appearance.
