For the first time since well, l952-53 the United Kingdom will have a King- a male monarch! Charles III if he is alive and well. Coins, stamps, etc will have to be redesigned, a big shake-up- last time a Sovereign Queen of England died was back on January 22 of l90l when Victoria passed on.- There was close to a year of mourning ( not to mention retooling of coins, stamps, etc) and King Edward was not officially crowned until l902. True, Queen Mary died in l953, but she was a dowager Consort ( spousal) Queen and not a Queen regnant.

Will Prince William succeed Queen Elizabeth II?
There's a chance he might do so directly. Prince William is second in line to the throne, after his father, Prince Charles. When Queen Elizabeth II passes on the crown, by death or voluntary act, one of the following will happen. 1 - Prince Charles takes the throne as King Charles III. Prince William is therefore the heir apparant, the next in line. Barring his own death or other exceptional circumstances, he will eventually become King. 2 - Prince Charles refuses the crown, allowing William to directly succeed from Queen Elizabeth II.
