Description
A deliberate departure from the usual sculpted design adopted for royal portraits, this strong linear design and text in free-form is one of the most adventurous designs in Her Majesty’s reign.
The portrait harks back to the era of the coronation and despite its obvious absence of detail, is nonetheless easily identifiable. The reverse is text-based with centrally the legend GOD SAVE THE QUEEN in similar linear style to the outer legend. The designer of both sides of this five pound coin was Tom Phillips.
