About This Design

Few books have had such an impact on the world as the King James Bible, a cornerstone of our culture and language. First published in 1611, its influence on the English language is still evident today and it remains one of the best-loved Bible translations.

The spirit of the King James Bible is captured on the £2 coin celebrating its 400th anniversary. Cleverly reminding us that printing concerns were at the heart of the matter in 1611, the reverse design displays the first words from the book of John – ‘In the beginning was the Word’ –  in the reversed raised text of the printing block on the left and the recessed text of the printed word on the right. The words chosen for the edge inscription – ‘THE AUTHORISED VERSION’ – complete the story. The obverse bears the portrait of Her Majesty The Queen by Ian Rank-Broadley FRBS.
