Rejected petition nickel plated coins causing allergies

More details

I and hopefully many other sufferers in my predicament are asking you to stop producing nickel plated coins.

I have recently been diagnosed as suffering from a nickel allergy.

It started in November, I had such a terrible rash on my face that I had to be given a course of steroid tablets. Since then I have intermittently been on a potent steroid cream. I will be shortly going on an immuno-suppressant cream to stop my immune system attacking my body. I have only just been diagnosed with this allergy. My Doctor told me to not handle any coins, or any other metal, and don't touch my face.
1 in 10 people are affected by a nickel allergy, and like me has to wear gloves when touching any coins or anything metal. I have spent the last three days trying to avoid metal or wearing gloves.
Its Life Changing.
