Description
Rarely does a coin feature a royal effigy on both sides, but every coin in this magnificent 2011 $15 series does. Each portrait has the raised edges normally seen on a sculpted military medal. Its ultra-high relief has been achieved by striking the coin an impressive four times followed by extensive refining and polishing—an intense hand-crafted process that produces a unique finish for each coin. Mintage is limited to 10,000 coins.
The Design:
The agreeable disposition of the Princes of Wales is unmistakable in three skillfully-crafted portraits, each one a remarkable likeness of Prince Harry, Prince William and The Prince of Wales (Prince Charles).
H.R.H. Prince Henry of Wales(Prince Harry):
Prince Harry was born on September 15, 1984and baptized Prince Henry Charles Albert David. Like his elder brother, Prince Harry trained at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. He served in Afghanistan in 2008 and is patron of six charitable organizations, including Sentebale of which he is co-founder.
