I moved to Japan about 16 years ago and my family who is visiting me showed me the new King Charles loonie. When I put it in hand, it felt much thinner than what I remember. Is this because it IS actually thinner or am I just too used to Japanese coins?

I doubt it, because many coin-operated mechanisms are designed to measure the weight of coins before accepting them.
