The reverse design by Canadian artist Joel Kimmel commemorates the wedding of HRH Prince Harry of Wales and Ms. Meghan Markle with a finely engraved engagement portrait of the Royal couple-to-be. This depiction is exquisitely edged with Canadian maple leaves intertwined with roses and escallop shells from Prince Harry’s coat of arms. For an added symbolic touch, three genuine Swarovski® crystals edge the loving portrait as a symbolic representation of the couple’s three-stone diamond engagement ring. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
