Information about effigy: Queen Elizabeth II - Special Effigy by Pobjoy Mint

The Pobjoy Mint is a British Mint striking coins for a large number of countries, mostly collector and bullion issues. On some of these coins, the mint uses an effigy of Queen Elizabeth II developed for the exclusive usage of the Pobjoy Mint, displaying her Majesty facing right, crowned and wearing a pearl necklace and pearl earrings.

The letters PM which appear below the neck truncation are not a designer's initials but a mint mark, abbreviated from Pobjoy Mint.
