It is overlayed by a giant '0', which will eventually form '007' when added to the other coins in the series (see image above).<br /> <br /> <div class='imgwithcaption'><img class="size-full wp-image-23969" src="https://coinsnotebook.com/wp-content/uploads/2020-Silver-1oz-James-Bond-DB5-RM.jpg" alt="2020 Silver 1oz James Bond DB5" width="521" height="517" /><br> 2020 James Bond DB5 Silver 1oz (image: Royal Mint)</div><br /> <br /> The Reverse was designed by Matt Dent and Christian Davies.
