Beschrijving keerzijde The copper-nickel inner disc features a dynamic depiction of a running athlete or torch-bearer in stylized form, overlaid on an outline map of the British Isles, alluding to the Manchester 2002 Commonwealth Games held in England, with the Games being celebrated across the UK including Wales. To the left of the central figure, a circular emblem resembling the Commonwealth Games logo is visible, while a waving banner or flag sweeps across the upper left field. The denomination '£2' appears to the right in the field. The nickel-brass outer ring bears the legend 'XVII COMMONWEALTH GAMES' in the upper arc and 'GAMES 2002' in the lower arc, with the engraver's initials 'MB' also present.

Aanvullende informatie

Issued to mark the 2002 Commonwealth Games held across Manchester, Cardiff, and other UK venues, this coin was part of a four-piece set — one for each of the home nations. The Wales piece was struck in comparatively lower numbers than the England issue, reflecting allocated mintages by nation rather than population proportion. Manchester hosted the main athletics program while Cardiff's events were limited to shooting, making the "Games in Wales" designation somewhat narrower in scope than collectors sometimes assume.
