  • Taken from 1984, the quote ‘BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU’ encircles the lens on the reverse of the coin
  • Another quote from the novel, ‘THERE WAS TRUTH AND THERE WAS UNTRUTH’, serves as the coin’s edge inscription
  • Created with the support of the Orwell Foundation, an independently registered charity officially sanctioned by the Orwell Estate
  • Accompanied by packaging that explores Orwell’s life and notable works
