Fourth crowned portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth II facing right, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara.

The Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara was a wedding present in 1947 from her grandmother, Queen Mary, who received it as a gift from the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland in 1893 on the occasion of her marriage to the Duke of York, later George V. Made by E. Wolfe & Co., it was purchased from Garrard & Co. by a committee organised by Lady Eve Greville. In 1914, Mary adapted the tiara to take 13 diamonds in place of the large oriental pearls surmounting the tiara. At first, Elizabeth wore the tiara without its base and pearls but the base was reattached in 1969. The Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara is one of Elizabeth's most recognisable pieces of jewellery due to its widespread use on British banknotes and coinage.

ELIZABETH II DEI GRATIA REGINA FIDEI DEFENSATRIX means Elizabeth II, by the grace of God, Queen and Defender of the Faith.

Depicts the bust of left holding a book nineteenth-century anti-slavery campaigner Olaudau Equiano accompanied by the blue 2012 London Olympic logo and a quotation from William Shakespeare, "To thine own self be true".

Olaudah Equiano (c. 1745 – 1797), known in his lifetime as Gustavus Vassa, was a freed slave of Igbo extraction from the eastern part of present-day Nigeria, who supported the British movement to end the slave trade. His autobiography, The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano (1789), which depicted the horrors of slavery, helped in the creation of the Slave Trade Act 1807 which ended the African slave trade for Britain and its colonies.

1823 is the year in which the Society for the Mitigation and Gradual Abolition of Slavery throughout the British Dominions was founded.

The London 2012 Summer Olympics logo is four abstract shapes placed in a quadrant formation spelling out "2012". The word "London" is written in the shape representing the "2", while the Olympic rings are placed in the shape representing the "0".
