Queen Elizabeth II celebrates her 90th birthday on April 21, so the Royal Mint has issued a range of coins to mark the occasion. The program works out to more than one coin for each decade of her.
Residents of the United Kingdom who celebrate their 90th birthday on April 21 this year are eligible to win their own Queen's 90th Birthday commemorative coin, in a program operated through the Royal Mint's Facebook page.
According to a press release from the Royal Mint, Hobbs' design was inspired by the heraldic rose and the queen's love of flowers.
'The central ‘EIIR' is surrounded by a classical wreath of celebration. I have tried to make the roses more natural than heraldic, each one different from the other. The oval form gave more space to the central lettering but was also, I felt, more interesting than a plain circle,' he said.
The Jody Clark effigy of Queen Elizabeth II appears on the obverse of all of the new coins.
Five of the coins are denominated £5, each of which measures 38.61 millimeters in diameter.
