Music Legends - George Michael 1 Oz
Issued by the Royal British Mint for 2024, this 1 Oz (31.1g) silver coin with colour printing in the finest 99.9% Proof silver is part of the Music Legends series celebrating iconic British artists. The eighth coin features pop singer, songwriter and producer, George Michael.
The design for the reverse side of the coin was created by Sandra Deiana, who based the design on the iconic music video for the single ''Faith''. The motif is dominated by a portrait of singer George Michael, including meticulously crafted details, which is complemented by a guitar neck in the background, which is surrounded by a colourful recording of the sound of Faith. The name of the singer ''GEORGE MICHAEL'' appears at the bottom of the coin.
George Michael was a British singer, songwriter and producer, who became famous for his band Wham!, in which he was a member together with Adrew Ridgeley. In the 1980s, the duo was one of the most successful pop groups, especially with hits like ''Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go'', ''I'm Your Man'', ''The Edge of Heaven'' and ''Last Christmas''. With his later solo career, he then released hits such as ''Faith'', ''Freedom'', ''Careless Whisper'', ''A Different Corner'' and the duet with Elton John ''Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me''. During his career, he has sold more than 100 million records and won 2 Grammys and 3 Brit Awards. In 2023, he was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The obverse bears a portrait of King Charles III by Martin Jennings with his initials ''M.J.''. The description of the coin includes the inscriptions ''CHARLES III. D. G. REX.F.D.'', the face value ''2 POUNDS'' and the year of issue ''2024''.
The coin comes in a Royal Mint gift box with a themed booklet and numbered certificate of authenticity in a limited edition of 3,510 pieces for the whole world!
