History:
Timothy Noad has created a modern artistic rendition of the Royal Arms of England for all of the coins in this series. His creation includes, at its heart, the quartered shield that forms the Royal Arms. In each of these quadrants is the symbol of a nation within the United Kingdom. It is important to note that this broader design represents the monarch of England, while the coat of arms featured in the quadrants represents the independent nations that monarch rules over.
The obverse face of 2020 1/10 oz British Gold Royal Arms Coins bears a depiction of Queen Elizabeth II. Here, you can see the Queen in right-profile relief in a fifth-generation design created by Jody Clark for the Royal Mint of England in 2015. In this design, the Queen is shown at the age of 89 and wears the George IV State Diadem crown on her head.
On the reverse side of 2020 British Gold Royal Arms Coins, you will find Mr. Noads design of the modern Royal Arms of England. The Lion of England supports the shield from the left, with the Unicorn of Scotland on the right. The Three Lions coat of arms for England is featured in two of the four quadrants on the shield. The rampant Lion of Scotland, adopted by the King of Scots in the 12th century, is found in one quadrant representing Scotland and the Harp of Ireland, representing Northern Ireland, is in the final quadrant.
