Celebrate The Who with this 2021 The Who - Music Legends 1 oz Gold Bullion Coin.
This is the fourth release in The Royal Mint's Music Legends Series.
The Who formed in 1964 and became one of the most influential bands of the 20th century. Founding members Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend and John Entwistle started out as The Detours and were already playing regular gigs around London before changing their name. They soon met drummer Keith Moon who was then part of a band called The Beachcombers. After playing just a few songs with The Who, they offered him the job as their drummer.
The Who found fame with "I Can't Explain" and "My Generation", but are just as well known for their rock operas "Tommy" and "Quadrophenia" which were turned into films in 1975 and 1979, respectively.
Daltrey and Townshend still continue to tour, despite the deaths of Moon and Entwistle and released their 12th album, simply titled "Who".
The music legends range of coins was started in 2020 by The Royal Mint to celebrate the greatest rock bands past and present from the United Kingdom!
The obverse features the Jody Clark portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The text reads:
2021 · ELIZABETH II · D · G · REG · F · D · 100 POUNDS ·
Designed by Henry Gray, the design features some of the most iconic symbols of The Who. A Rickenbacker guitar-shaped pinball machine is shown smashing through a speaker. The guitar is adorned by a Union Jack flag. The round mod-style 'The Who' logo appears at the top of the coin.
