About the coin: The Royal Arms of the United Kingdom symbolically represent the power and status of the monarch. Its design consists of a shield divided into four quarters, each representing a different part of the United Kingdom: England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. The coat of arms depicts a royal crown supported by a lion and a unicorn symbolizing strength and nobility. The royal arms originated in the 12th century when knights used shields decorated with their family arms. Over time, the design has been adapted to reflect the changing political landscape of the United Kingdom including Scotland and Ireland. Today, royal coats of arms appear on everything from currency to government documents and are a visual reminder of the UK's rich history and traditions.
