It depicts the Queen in right-profile relief wearing the George IV State Diadem Crown. The inscriptions on this field of the coin read 100 POUNDS, ELIZABETH II, and D.G. REG F.D.

Reverse

Little John is featured in the reverse design of the 2022 Little John 1 oz Gold Coin. The design shown here was created by Jody Clark as well and captures the measure of the man.

Inscriptions on this side include LITTLE JOHN, 1 OZ, FINE GOLD, 999.9, and 2022.
