The obverse carries Jody Clark's definitive fifth portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by the Latin legend: 'ELIZABETH II · D · G · REG · F · D · 25 POUNDS ·'.
The reverse presents Jody Clark's dramatic depiction of the Lion of England, crowned and roaring while supporting a shield decorated with the Royal Arms. The inscription 'LION OF ENGLAND' appears below with the date (2017) above.
Each of these £25 quarter-ounce coins is struck in 7.80 grams of 24-carat (999.9) fine gold and measures 22.00 millimetres across. Finished to The Royal Mint's proof standard, frosted designs stand out sharply against polished fields.
