Elizabeth II 95th Birthday

Design details: 95 devoted years....

Her Majesty The Queen’s 95th birthday is such a special occasion that two designs have been created for our commemorative coin collection celebrating this royal milestone.

The reverses of the £5, two-ounce gold Proof, two-ounce silver Proof and quarter-ounce gold Proof coins feature a design created by the calligrapher and heraldic artist Timothy Noad, who is renowned for his attention to detail and use of both traditional and modern techniques. His designs have featured on Her Majesty The Queen’s Golden and Diamond Jubilee Medals and he has worked on several projects for The Royal Mint, including the House of Windsor Centenary £5 coin, the Four Generations of Royalty £5 coin and coins within our Tower of London collection.

Her Majesty is well-known for her love of nature and flowers, a passion that Timothy Noad shares and often uses as inspiration for his work.
