British Coin Designers

On a £1 coin, you'll find the initials:

- "JC" - referring to Ian Rank-Broadley's portrait of the Queen on the obverse (heads) side, but actually referring to the designer of the Royal Shield, Jeremy Clark,  on the 2008-2016 standard £1 coin,

- "DP" - referring to the designer of the bridge series of £1 coins, David Pearce.

Here are some designer initials you can find on UK coinage:
