Comment
Created in partnership with The Rolling Stones to commemorate the band's 60th anniversary and issued as part of the Music Legends series, the coin was also struck in a variety of denominations and metals including copper-nickel, colourised copper-nickel, colourised silver proof and gold proof. Issue limit: 606.©The Royal Mint, 2022
This strike was issued after the passing of Queen Elizabeth II but the design continued to bear the image of The Queen, in support of His Majesty the King's ambition for a sustainable transition. This ensured minimal environmental impact as the designs, tools and packaging for these products had already been produced.
