Honoring a Legacy of Service
Rebecca Morgan, Director of Commemorative Coin at The Royal Mint, praised Princess Anne’s extraordinary record of public service:
“This is the first time in British numismatic history that The Princess Royal has been honoured on a UK coin. Her unwavering dedication to public life, charitable work, and support for the Armed Forces makes her truly deserving of this recognition.”
Thomas T. Docherty, the artist behind the design, aimed to reflect Princess Anne’s grace, resilience, and understated strength:
“It was a privilege to design this piece. I wanted the portrait to capture her dignity and her decades of service. As a Scotsman, I’ve always admired her connection to Scottish causes and communities.”

One supporter wrote:
“It’s about time this lady was recognised for everything she’s done—and continues to do. God bless you, Princess Anne.”
Another added:
“She’s the backbone of the royal family. This recognition is richly deserved.”
