Comment
Queen Elizabeth II is the first ever British Monarch to have a reign long enough to achieve a Sapphire Jubilee. We have decided to honour Her Majesty by releasing a coin featuring the Royal Crest.
The Royal Crest featured on the design has evolved over nine centuries since Richard the Lionheart chose three lions to represent England. The Crest appears above on the gates of Buckingham Palaces and shows the shield of the United Kingdom Royal Arms supported by the English Lion on the left and the Scottish Unicorn on the right. The patron Saint of England, St George is shown just below the crest. The obverse features the Pobjoy exclusive effigy design of HM Queen Elizabeth II in exceptional detail.
As Titanium reacts differently with every strike each of the 7,500 Titanium coins are technically different and vary slightly in colour. There is also a lined effect that is present on the coins which is unique to this metal.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it is made of titanium, which is a highly durable and resistant metal that is also lightweight. This makes the coin unique and different from other coins that are typically made of more traditional metals like copper, silver, or gold. The use of titanium also gives the coin a distinctive blue color, which adds to its aesthetic appeal.
