One interesting fact about the Sapphire Jubilee coin is that it features a unique reverse design, created by artist and sculptor, Edwina Ellis. The design depicts a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by a wreath of sapphires, to commemorate her 65 years on the throne. The sapphires are arranged in a pattern that represents the Queen's reign, with each sapphire representing a different decade of her rule. This design element adds an extra layer of meaning and significance to the coin, making it a truly special collector's item.
