To commemorate Prince George's second birthday on July 22, the Royal Mint will release a limited edition sterling silver £5 coin.

乔治小王子7月22日就满两周岁啦!为了纪念小王子的生日，英国皇家铸币局将发行面值5英镑的限量版纯银硬币。

The coin features a contemporary re-imagining of the St George and the dragon legend by artist Christopher Le Brun while the other side features the portrait of the Queen by Jody Clark.

硬币的一面是《圣乔治与龙》传说的还原图，由艺术家克里斯托弗•勒•布伦设计，另一面是乔迪•克拉克设计的英国女王肖像。

 

 

Priced at £80 and limited to just 7,500 coins, its design has been approved by parents William and Kate, the Queen and Chancellor George Osborne.

这套硬币每枚售价80英镑，限量7500枚。硬币的设计得到了威廉王子和凯特王妃，英国女王以及财政大臣乔治•奥斯本的认可。

St George is a familiar figure on British coinage, first appearing on certain gold coins issued during the reign of Henry VIII. The classic St George and the dragon image created by Benedetto Pistrucci in 1817 has graced the coins of almost every monarch since George III, and the Royal Mint says Le Brun's composition applies a 'dynamic and new approach to the portrayal of the classic tale'.
