Royal symbols that will change

ROYAL STANDARD: Flag includes lion rampant representing Scotland, harp for Ireland, and two quarters representing England – three lions passant – but none for Wales.
King Charles III could incorporate Welsh element

BANK NOTES, COINS: Bank notes bearing Queen’s face are worth £80 billion. Replacing them, featuring Charles III, will take at least two years.
Queen’s head also features on some banknotes in Canada and other parts of Commonwealth. Charles III’s profile on coins will face in opposite direction

POSTBOXES, STAMPS:
Royal Mail postboxes bearing Queen Elizabeth’s royal cypher, ER, are unlikely to be removed. The Post Office, however, will change stamps, with profile of King Charles III

LAW: Barristers and advocates in law will be called King’s Counsel, KC, instead of Queen’s Counsel

ROYAL WARRANTS: There are more than 800 Royal Warrant holders – people or companies that have history of supplying goods or services to royal household.
They enjoy using Queen’s arms on their marketing materials
