Designed by Chris Facey, the reverse of this Music Legends Queen coin incorporates the instruments of the band's members, including a microphone, a keyboard, a guitar, a drum kit and a bass.
The obverse of these Queen 1/2oz coins displays Jody Clark's fifth and final coinage portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, facing right, along with an inscription that reads 'ELIZABETH II · D · G · REG · F · D · 1 POUND · 2020 ·'.
This coin has a face value of One Pound and is made from 15.71 grams of 999 fine silver, struck with a premium proof finish, achieved with multiple strikes of hand-prepared dies for a high level of detail.
The Royal Mint authorised the production of 20,000 of these half-ounce coins as the inaugural release in their Music Legends collection, though records indicate that 15,088 were actually issued.
This pre-owned 2020-dated collectors coin is supplied in the original packaging from The Royal Mint, which includes an acrylic display slab with a built-in capsule, an information booklet and a numbered certificate of authenticity.
