The creation is the final product of Matthew Dent, a graphic designer who won a national design competition in 2005. The coins have the Shield of the Royal Army on them as per usual, but on the new coins they are split strategically into 6 different pieces, with the 7th coin carrying the entire shield…
The coins look sweet…Matthew Dent…RISE salutes you
