2021 Una and the Lion Wyon Design on a proof background.

Interesting fact

The Una and the Lion coin design, featured on the 2021 1 Pound Elizabeth II silver coin, has a rich history. It was originally designed by William Wyon in 1839 and was used on the first gold sovereigns of Queen Victoria. The design depicts Una, a personification of Britain, holding a shield with the British coat of arms, and a lion, symbolizing strength and courage. The design was later adapted for use on other coins, including this non-circulating coin.
