Annual Year Coin 2009
Mountain Gorilla
by Fiona Bakewell
Edition size 50, diameter 48mm, £225

Originality and creativity are key attributes of Elliot
Hall Enamels, and the Bronze collection sees the
ingenious addition of an enamel coin - a concept
pioneered by Elliot and Tiffany.
A year coin will be
launched annually to form a series featuring endangered
animals with the first one portraying the sagacious
Mountain Gorilla. In her design Fiona has perfectly
captured the expressive features and character of this
increasingly rare species. The back is engraved with the
Elliot Hall Enamel logo and the year of issue.
The coin
takes the name Vertis, the Roman name for the city of
Worcester, and continues the company tradition of naming
shapes after the topography of the county. |
