Design & Symbolism

“Una and the Lion” is one of the most iconic motifs in British numismatics. It originates from an allegorical depiction of Queen Victoria from 1839 and symbolizes royal dignity, courage, and leadership. In Jody Clark’s reinterpretation , Queen Elizabeth II is depicted as Una , leading the lion as a symbol of the United Kingdom .

The obverse features an elegant portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by the inscription:
“ELIZABETH II ALDERNEY 2021 100 POUNDS”
