A design was by Yvonne Holton and the coin is divided into four quarters, with a rose and a thistle representing England and Scotland occupying two of the quarters and a portcullis in each of the other two quarters. The whole design is overlaid with a linking jigsaw motif and surrounded by the dates "1707" and "2007", and the denomination "TWO POUNDS"
Edge inscription is "UNITED INTO ONE KINGDOM".
The obverse is the Ian Rank-Broadley portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.
