Design
details:
At the Closing Ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games, the world
watched as London handed over the mantle to the next Host City, Rio de
Janeiro.
This, the final coin in The Royal Mint’s London 2012 Coin programme,
celebrated the milestone with an evocative design by Jonathan Olliffe. My
interview with him can be found on the Check your Change Facebook group.
