I don't think so. The monogram for Queen Elizabeth, II, doesn't carry a roman numeral following the "E". The monogram for King George VI was G||R


If you google it shows on Wikipedia that it was GVIR. What do you think the II in EIIR stands for?

II is the Roman Numeral for 2, that is Queen Elizabeth the 2nd.

Yes, and III is the Roman Numeral for 3, that is King Charles the 3rd.

Thanks for the catch! It appeared to be a double vertical bar.

It's one thing to have QEII's face looking at you from paper money and coinage. To have Chucky III do so will be quite a difference.
