Comment

Compared to 1p coins from 1988-2003, there are no twigs under the bird's feet.

Interesting fact

The 1 Penny coin from Gibraltar featuring Elizabeth II with a smaller bust and the Barbary Partridge design was the first coin in the British Overseas Territories to feature a new, smaller portrait of the Queen, which was introduced in 2012. This change in design was made to bring the coinage of Gibraltar in line with the coinage of the United Kingdom, which had already adopted the new portrait of the Queen in 2008.
