In a celebration of British craftsmanship and timeless design, The Royal Mint and Liberty have united to combine their expertise to produce a chic UK coin to commemorate 150 years of one of Britain’s most iconic and influential fashion houses.
To mark the momentous occasion, a spectacular one of a kind 1.5 kilograms medallion has been made, fusing Liberty’s distinctive artistry with The Royal Mint’s unrivalled expertise in precious metals craftsmanship. Created by a team of master craftspeople at The Royal Mint using traditional minting skills alongside innovative technology, the medallion took approximately 3 weeks to make.
Designed by the Liberty’s in-house artisans, the instantly recognisable architecture of the London store can be seen on the reverse of the medallion along with a special nod to the brand’s beautiful fabric patterns to celebrate its 150th anniversary. Coloured resin has also been applied by hand to the bring the bold colours Liberty is known for to life on metal.
The obverse depicts Liberty’s Coat of Arms along with the phrase “No minute gone comes ever back again, take heed and see ye nothing do in vain” the same as the inscription found underneath the Liberty clock since it was first erected in 1925.
