Queen Coin
And the Queen’s face gazes at the giant Coin. The central star in the Star is 8-pointed, and the central flower on her Coin has 8 petals. – Once again this is something new, the arrangement of petals on this Coin. We have a 14-petalled flower on the outside, an 8-petalled flower within, and a dot in the very center of the coin. Since 1972, our coin & bullion department at Silver Queen and Belleair Coins Gold & Diamonds has purchased and sold hundreds of millions of dollars of gold & silver coins, ingots, bars, bullion and numismatics to hundreds of thousands of satisfied customers. Our Motto and Slogan is Honesty, Integrity and Reliability.
The coin, released on Monday, features the band’s logo and instruments played by the Queen members: the Bechstein grand piano played by Freddie Mercury for “Bohemian Rhapsody”, May’s “Red Special”.
The Queen's 95th birthday will be celebrated on one of five new commemorative coins released this year.
The Queen, who will become the first British monarch to reach the age of 95 on 21 April, will have her birthday celebrated with a new £5 coin.
The issue of a £5 coin is usually reserved for special royal occasions.

The coin features the royal cypher 'EIIR', and the words 'my heart and my devotion', referencing part of her 1957 Christmas broadcast.
During the speech the Queen said: 'In the old days the monarch led his soldiers on the battlefield and his leadership at all times was close and personal.
'Today things are very different. I cannot lead you into battle, I do not give you laws or administer justice, but I can do something else, I can give you my heart and my devotion to these old islands and to all the peoples of our brotherhood of nations.'
The new collection for 2021 also includes:

Clare Maclennan, of the consumer division at The Royal Mint, said: 'This year's annual set is particularly special for The Royal Mint as we celebrate one of the biggest milestones in our 1,100-year history - the anniversary of decimalisation.
'This was one of the largest and most intensive public awareness campaigns ever staged by the government and introduced the coins that we know today.
Queen Elizabeth Coins Rare
'Decimalisation was the birth of modern coin collecting and it is fitting that the anniversary has been celebrated on a 50 pence, which is Britain's most loved coin.'
