The tale of Robin Hood is almost as old as the monarchy in England itself. One of the first known mentions of Robin Hood comes from 1266 and is written in Latin in the Scotichronicon. Here, there is a reference to a “famous murderer, Robin Hood, as well as Little John.”
Little John also appears alongside Robin Hood in the earliest known ballads and stories that tell of a band of Merry Men, or bandits, living in Sherwood Forest and fighting back against the tyranny of Prince John. Little John’s name is an ironic reference to his gigantic frame, with legends suggesting he stood 7 feet tall.
The obverse of the 2022 British Gold Little John Coin comes with a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is featured here in right-profile relief wearing the George IV State Diadem Crown. The Queen’s effigy is set against a background field with a guilloche texture. This portrait was created in 2015 by Jody Clark.
