Andre Levy is a Brazilian artist whose work involves him taking coins and replacing the profiled faces of politicians and monarchs, and replacing them with the people who really matter – your favourite pop culture icons.

His collection, Tales You Lose, is a brilliantly creative use of the shrapnel in your pocket.

Using coins from all over the world, there are hundreds on the blog - which is well worth checking out here. But here are some of Newstalk’s favourites:

Leela from Futurama

Amélie

Superman

Liono from Thundercats

Dr Who
