00:03Today we're announcing the next release in the Royal Mint's Music Legends series.
00:07It's a hugely popular series with over half a million coins being delivered
00:11worldwide to 111 different countries. The release today is for an iconic pop
00:16group from the 90s, the Spice Girls and what's really important about this
00:20release is it's the first time a girl band is featured on a UK coin. The design
00:24and the coin are really vibrant and what's really special about this release
00:28is that for the colour Brilliant Uncirculated coin, there's an individual
00:31packaging for each Spice Girl.
00:37One of the main parts of the designs of the silhouettes, Spice Girls are so
00:41globally known you can instantly recognize them just by their poses so I
00:46think even if the logo Spice Girls wasn't even on the coin, the coin would still be
00:50recognized just by their silhouettes. This coin design is actually quite unique
00:54because it's got all five member signatures on there. I think it'd be a big hit
00:58with their fans.
