Royal celebration

Under the auspices of Clarence House, The Perth Mint unveiled Australia's official silver commemorative coin in honour of the birth of His Royal Highness Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge.

Their Royal Highnesses, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, became proud parents of their first child on 22 July 2013 at St Mary's Hospital in London, with millions of people sharing in their joy.

Stunning design

The reverse of the coin depicts a beautifully sculpted portrait of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge cradling and gazing lovingly at their newborn baby. The image is encircled by a sculpted ribbon tied in a bow supporting a delicate bouquet of acorns and fleur de lys - symbols from the Duke and Duchess' Coats of Arms. The inscription IN CELEBRATION OF THE BIRTH OF HRH PRINCE GEORGE, the birth date and The Perth Mint's 'P' mintmark are also included in the design.
