Happy 100th anniversary of birth to the late Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty would have been 100 today.
In honour of the occasion, here are four images, three gold-coloured (not actual gold) coins, and some art:
1) The 1st portrait by Mary Gillick, from an Australian pre-decimal penny: https://coinofnote.com/1963-australian-penny-keyring/
2) The Arnold Machin portrait on the first circulating pound coin: https://coinofnote.com/1979-isle-of-man-pound/
3) Jody Clark portrait with memorial dates, on 2023 Sydney Opera House 50c: https://coinofnote.com/2023-sydney-opera-house-50th-anniversary/
4) Two composite images together - left: A picture I made, of coins with each of the portraits overlaid on a larger image of a penny with the Mary Gillick portrait. Right: A picture I bought of the Queen's portrait made up of stamps of her image.

The Coin Collecting merit badge is a fun way to connect with history 💰. Each coin tells a story, and Scouts learn to study designs, markings, and condition 🔍.
They also practice goal setting and organizing collections. These skills build confidence and curiosity while preparing Scouts for school and life 🌟.
Coin collecting can grow into a lifelong hobby, making this badge both interesting and useful.
