UK £1 Coin - Royal Coat of Arms Design | Official Currency Image #3497095 (License: Personal Use)

This gold-colored £1 coin features the Royal Coat of Arms of the United Kingdom at its center, supported by the crowned lion of England and the unicorn of Scotland. Below the shield, the Latin inscription “DECUS ET TUTAMEN” (“An ornament and a safeguard”) appears on a scroll, along with “ONE POUND” around the lower edge. The coin’s outer ring is bimetallic in newer versions, though this image shows the reverse design common to both older and newer issues.

Used on financial, numismatic, educational, or governmental websites to illustrate British currency, royal symbolism, or monetary policy. Matches user intent for coin identification, historical research, or visual reference for designers and educators.
