Description: Some 1997 UK one pound coins may be rare, including the piedfort coin featuring the Three Lions reverse by Norman Sillman. This coin is the fourth in a series of national heraldic emblems representing each nation of the United Kingdom. The obverse portrait of the Queen by Raphael Maklouf was used on all UK circulated coinage from 1985 to 1997 and was the third portrait of the Queen used on coinage. The reverse design shows the three English lions, part of the heraldic series by Norman Sillman. The UPSIDE DOWN edge inscription ‘DECUS ET TUTAMEN’ is Latin for ‘An ornament and safeguard’ and was originally used on coins so that the public could tell that the edge was complete, and therefore that the coin was of good weight (without clipped edges).
