Avril Vaughan: Preliminary and unrealised designs

Quote from: eurocoin on September 11, 2014, 05:07:55 PMThis design was made for a  British 5 Pounds coin to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Prince of Wales in 1998.

Looks interesting but strange to me. Maybe the design was to commemorate not only his 50th birthday but, like the realized design, also the Prince's Trust? But still ... ;)

Great stuff, eurocoin. Thank you.

An unidentified coin is a piece of metal. An identified coin is a piece of history.

Indeed a very strange but interesting design. Unfortunately there was no further information about it in the Royal Mint Archives. :(
