| 正面描述 | Effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II facing right, rendered in high relief after the fifth definitive portrait by Jody Clark. The Queen is depicted wearing the George IV State Diadem, with a draped bust. The peripheral legend carries the royal titles in abbreviated Latin, with the denomination and date incorporated into the inscription. The initials J.C. appear below the truncation, attributing the design to the engraver. |

This piedfort was issued as part of the Royal Mint's "The Kings and Queens of England" bullion series, which launched in 2022 and works backward through the English monarchs. Henry VII opens the series — an appropriate choice, given that it was Henry who established the first permanent royal mint organization with meaningful centralized control over English coinage after decades of civil war had fractured production under the Yorkist and Lancastrian struggle. His 1489 gold sovereign, introduced partly as a propaganda instrument projecting restored royal authority, remains one of the most consequential coin designs in English minting history.
A piedfort of this specification — double the standard flan thickness — follows a tradition the Royal Mint revived in the 1980s for collector issues, itself borrowing from medieval French practice of striking presentation pieces for assay verification.
