George Michael Coins Unveiled By The Royal Mint
Fans of George Michael can now show their Faith in their late idol by buying a new collectable coin celebrating the British singer-songwriter. The coin, from Britain’s Royal Mint, features Michael’s signature look and music from his debut solo and second single, Faith. The coin is the latest in The Royal Mint’s Music Legends series, following the likes of David Bowie, Elton John, and Queen. Designed by artist and sculptor Sandra Deiana, the new collectable coin portrays the famous headshot of Michael wearing his trademark sunglasses and an engraving of the refrain of “Faith”. The coin has been officially approved by George Michael’s estate. Sandra said. “ I wanted a detailed portrait that captured his charismatic expression – I was particularly thinking of his iconic sunglasses. George, who died in 2016, is considered one of the most influential recording artists of all time. He rose to fame in the 1980s as a member of the duo Wham! selling over 30 million records and later embarked on a solo career and sold over 125 million records worldwide.
