| Reverse description | Dynamic full-length figure of Robin Hood striding boldly to the right, depicted at full draw with a longbow, an arrow nocked and aimed. The legendary outlaw is portrayed in medieval dress against a finely stippled background evoking the canopy of Sherwood Forest, with a large tree branch rendered in relief across the lower field. The engraver's initials JC appear at lower right within the inner circle. The encircling legend ROBIN HOOD · 1OZ · FINE SILVER · 999 · 2021 runs around the periphery. |

| Additional information |
Part of the Royal Mint's broader push into licensed pop-culture and literary collectibles, this issue belongs to a series drawing on the Robin Hood legend — a monetarily safe subject with no rights complications and near-universal name recognition. The Sp#RH1 reference confirms it as the inaugural type in the sequence.
These struck-to-order bullion pieces were never intended for circulation; the £2 face value is nominal under the Coinage Act 1971 framework that permits the Royal Mint to issue legal tender collector coins well below their intrinsic worth.
