The reverse design of the coin shows Concorde enclosed within a pattern of concentric circles a representative of the sonic boom produced when she exceeds the speed of sound. The obverse carries Ian Rank-Broadley's portrait of the Queen. These legal tender coins have been struck to proof quality using specially prepared dies and highly polished blanks.
