History and design
This is a collector version of the 2 Pounds - Elizabeth II – Trinity House. The history below is that coin's; the mintage, varieties and collecting notes on its page do not apply to this strike.
Trinity House was established by Royal Charter under Henry VIII in 1514, with the task of improving the safety of Britain's waterways. The Royal Mint describes it as having served mariners for 500 years by maintaining lighthouses and other navigational aids and supporting maritime welfare and training. This £2 marks that anniversary.
The design was set by a royal proclamation given at Buckingham Palace on 6 November 2013, published alongside the proclamation for the year's other commemorative £2, the First World War Kitchener coin. The Royal Mint's figures record 3,705,000 Trinity House coins struck for circulation, against 5,720,000 of the Kitchener coin. Eighteen circulating £2 issues in the Mint's figures have a lower total.
The Royal Mint credits the reverse to Joe Whitlock Blundell in collaboration with David Eccles. It shows a lighthouse enclosed within a depiction of its own lens. Around it are the name TRINITY HOUSE and the dates 1514 and 2014, with the denomination TWO POUNDS.
The edge is milled with the incuse inscription SERVING THE MARINER.
The obverse has the fourth portrait of Elizabeth II, by Ian Rank-Broadley. Because the date and value are both on the reverse, the obverse carries only the legend ELIZABETH II DEI GRA REG FID DEF, with the royal titles less abbreviated than on coins that have to fit TWO POUNDS beside the portrait.
