One Thousand Pounds 2020 (Pop Group) Queen - Rock Royalty, One Kilo of .999 Gold, and 100mm diameter, this imposing and impressive coin features an innovative reverse design, including an arrangement of each of the instruments played by each band member, the design fittingly reflecting the grandiose nature of some of their greatest songs. The design personally approved by band members Brian May and Roger Taylor, FDC in the impressive box of issue with certificate number 6 accompanied by an informative 16-page booklet. Currently unlisted by the Standard Catalogue, only 6 examples have been issued of this iconic coin, which will certainly become a sought after piece.
