Clare Maclennan, the director of commemorative coin on the Royal Mint, stated that the design “pays homage to the maturity and grace of the Prince who has become a senior member of the Royal family, a devoted husband and a loving father of three”.
Mr Docherty stated the coin’s design “strikes a balance between the fresh energy of His Royal Highness being a young dad with the ceremonial nature of his royal position”.
He added: “A 3-quarter angle of the portrait creates a extra dynamic portrait fairly than a standard side-on profile.
“I used certain clay sculpting techniques on a digital platform to achieve the style needed for the design, to translate effectively from two to three dimensions.”
