As well as pasting a 12ft mural on a building in Broad Street the day before Ozzy's funeral, he has created a series of commemorative banknote designs in tribute to the Black Sabbath singer, with 30 per cent of the proceeds from each sale going to Parkinson's UK.

And the £5, £10 and £20 notes, which all feature different images of Ozzy, are flying off his website, with more than 1,000 sold already since they went online at the weekend. He has also created one dedicated to Ozzy's Black Sabbath bandmate Tony Iommi.

The banknotes are printed on cotton and linen paper with a security thread and a watermark.

Dion said: "Ozzy has obviously been in the news with his death prompting an outpouring of grief and tributes and thousands coming out to see his funeral cortege in Birmingham. where he was born and which I was at after doing a mural of him just days before.

"He deserves to be recognised so I thought I would create the designs as a homage to him and raise money for a cause that was dear to his and of course his family's heart.

"I think it is over 1,000 that have been sold, it seems to be one every minute - and they will remain on the website as long as they are selling and doing well for the deserving charity which is the most important thing."
