What does the Birmingham 50p coin look like?

Natasha Preece has worked at The Royal Mint since 2016 and currently works in the Product Design department. Following her design for the 2020 Remembrance Day coin, the Commonwealth Games coin is her second winning design through a Royal Mint Advisory Committee competition.

The main challenge I faced while designing for this competition was how to make a design that reflected all of the sports involved in the event, all of the different people that competed and all the nations that took part. I wanted to stay away from using a person as the main focus as I wanted my design to be inclusive to everyone, and that would be hard to represent using one person.

When I was designing this coin I was thinking about which areas of the design are going to be polished and frosted, I feel the library pattern on the coin creates beautiful areas of frosting and polishing. I’m really happy with the final outcome of the coin.
