Depicts a modern reworking of the Royal Arms gives each country of the United Kingdom equal billing – all four royal beasts leaping to the defence of British sovereignty with a crown at the centre.

Four royal beasts:
- Lion of England with the St Edwards crown on it, the Royal Beast of England since Richard Lion Heart.
- Unicorn of Scotland, the Royal Beast of Scotland since James III.
- Stag of Northern Ireland.
- Red Dragon of Wales.

The tail of the English Lion goes into the space of the Scottish Unicorn and the tail of the Unicorn goes in to the space of the Stag and the antlors of the Stag go into the space of the Dragon of Wales which makes it actually a much more dynamic design.

Engraver: Gregory Cameron (a Bishop of the Anglican Church in North East Wales, a keen amateur artist and coin collector)

DECUS ET TUTAMEN — Latin for "An ornament and a safeguard", a phrase taken from Virgil's Aeneid, and here referring to the fact that the inscription serves both as a decorative feature and as a safeguard against the clipping of the coin's edges (this is not a modern concern, but harks back to the days when circulating coins were made of precious metals). This appears on coins with English-themed, Northern Irish-themed or general UK-themed designs.
