History and design
This is a collector version of the 1 Pound - Elizabeth II – Oak and Rose. The history below is that coin's; the mintage, varieties and collecting notes on its page do not apply to this strike.
The 2013 England £1 opened the last themed series of round pounds: four coins pairing the floral emblems of the home nations. England and Wales came in 2013, Scotland and Northern Ireland in 2014. The Royal Mint announced the first two on 30 November 2012 and tied them to the 30th anniversary of the £1 coin, which was first issued in 1983.
The Royal Mint's figures give 5,270,000 England coins struck for circulation, exactly the same as the Wales coin of that year. For comparison, 13,090,500 Royal Shield pounds carry the 2013 date. Among dated round £1 issues in the Mint's figures only five are lower: Edinburgh, Cardiff, London, the 2008 Royal Arms and the 2014 Scotland floral coin.
Round pounds were replaced by the 12-sided £1 from 28 March 2017 and lost legal tender status at midnight on 15 October 2017.
The reverse is by Timothy Noad, described by the Royal Mint as a numismatic and medallic artist and a Fellow of the Society of Scribes and Illuminators. An oak branch with an acorn is balanced against a stem bearing a Tudor-inspired rose. The Mint's 2013 release called the oak indicative of integrity and strength and the rose a symbol of beauty and majesty.
Noad said of the series that he often uses plants and flowers "in a decorative way, combining natural forms and heraldic stylisation", and that these plants had appeared on coins singly before but not paired. The oak had last stood for England on the pounds of 1987 and 1992.
The milled edge reads DECUS ET TUTAMEN, "an ornament and a safeguard", wording the Mint says was first used on coins in the reign of Charles II. The obverse carries the fourth portrait of Elizabeth II, by Ian Rank-Broadley.
