The Royal Mint has been forced to make people 'queue' to use their website after it was swamped with visitors following the Queen 's death.
Thousands of users have attempted to log on to the national coinmaker's site since the passing of the late monarch on Thursday, forcing them to introduce a security measure designed to stop it from crashing.
A static welcome page is now on display upon logging on, inviting users to wait in an virtual queue as long as 35 users at times.
