About this deal

The East India Company dates to 1601 when it received a Royal Charter from Queen Elizabeth I, and its first ships set sail to the east with heavy cloths and thousands of pounds of silver coins bearing the emblem of the Queen. Four players with fewer European appearances are also honoured by being engraved on the base of the trophy: Gemma Davison, Sian Larkin, Danielle Buet, Charlotte Gurr. Kloosterman's designs will appear on the reverse, while the commonwealth portrait of Queen Elizabeth II wearing her crown and royal diadem created by The Royal Mint engraver Jody Clark will appear on the obverse of each coin. Clark's effigy was introduced on St. Helena in 2019. Redcurrant and graphic cues on the ‘Always Forward’ scroll are a subtle nod to Highbury, while retro elements within the artwork are inspired by historic Arsenal iconography, such as the ermine motifs which featured on our Victoria Concordia Crescit crest. The forward momentum of the scroll also represents our dynamic history, from the humble conception of the club to our current existence as a modern global brand, some 137 years later. The Queen's Virtues series consists of six designs that will appear on 1-oz silver and gold proof coins with very limited mintages, respectively of 2,500 and 250 pieces. Each release features an original design representing one of the six core virtues of Queen Victoria. The coins will be designed by acclaimed Dutch portrait artist and coin designer Elles Kloosterman, who has created coins for the Royal Dutch Mint and various private mints.

Part of sport is the journey, the chase. The lows we are feeling now will make the future highs that bit more enjoyable.

The third coin, "Truth Conquers All," will be released in Fall 2021 and is inspired by another part of the same memorial showing a winged figure of Truth, holding up a mirror to nature, standing between a child bearing a palm branch and a seated women searching in a scroll for the truth.

The VCC crest (7), which the current crest replaced, had been Arsenal’s symbol since appearing in the first programme of season 1949/50. It would appear to have been in the minds of the Gunners hierarchy for at least a year prior to this. In the final matchday programme of the 1947/48 League Championship winning season, ‘Marksman’ (aka Harry Homer), the programme editor of the day, wrote: “...my mind seeks an apt quotation with which to close this season which has been such a glorious one for Tom Whittaker, Joe Mercer and all connected with The Gunners. Shall we turn for once to Latin? ‘Victoria Concordia Crescit’. Translation: ‘Victory grows out of harmony.’” In addition to Edu’s chats in front of the camera, board member Josh Kroenke appeared as a guest on the Road Trippin’ podcast in February of this year. Among the subjects he discussed on the podcast was his experience with Arsenal. Kroenke detailed how his father’s company first acquired sole ownership of the club in 2018. He expressed his desire for Arsenal to return to the heights reached by the Invincibles. He also explained different elements of the leadership structure implemented at the club, as well as the thinking behind the team’s European Super League involvement. Inclusion Featuring 150 official supporter groups spanning all continents, the artwork comprises 187 banners and flags in total. The physical banners were handmade and individually photographed to create the authentic, billowing flag effect.

Take the current COVID-19 catastrophe for example. While Arsenal’s North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur have used a government scheme to pay their employees (something which has been extremely frowned upon), Arsenal has continued to pay their staff and also help out their community in a massive way during some very trying times. Yet to the majority’s credit, the atmosphere was not poisonous at any point this weekend. Sure, there were ironic chants of ‘we are staying up’ but you need to be able to laugh at yourself. Not everything has to be serious. Ingrained within the heritage of The Arsenal is the long standing latin motto “Victoria Concordia Crescit”. Over the years there have been a number of variations of the translation but all are roughly the same: “Victory Grows Through Harmony.” The shirt for the 2011/12 season featured a special 125th anniversary crest design (11) combining the graphic of the first club crest with the current version.

When Herbert Chapman took over the club in 1925 it took him a little while to appreciate what the possibilities of a club in central London were. Although Chapman died two years before the iconic East Stand was opened his legacy and the symbol he helped to create live on. The likes of myself will use platforms like this to question the owner’s ambition but there is a time and a place. One of the first things Chapman and Claude Waterlow Ferrier [the architect of Highbury's East and West stands] did was to "rebrand" the club. The name of the piece recalls a quote passed down through generations of our players and is now synonymous with David Rocastle: “ Remember who you are, what you are and who you represent.”Eighteen Eighty-Six is a bold, type-based design that symbolises our founding year in Woolwich and courageous move to north London in 1913 in the constant pursuit of progress. That was the question Mikel Arteta asked in the first episode of the new season of “All or Nothing”. Arsenal had just lost their first three matches of the 2021-22 season, a season in which Arsenal would feature in no European competitions for the first time in a quarter of a century. The Gunners had conceded nine goals, scored none, and sat dead last in the Premier League table. As the cherry on top, Spurs found themselves in first. Curated on the theme of ‘Icons and Role Models’ developed at the first supporter workshop, the intensity and drama of the artwork is accentuated by Reuben Dangoor’s unique style. There is a famous motto for years we had on our shirts, Victoria Concordia Crescit, Latin for Victory through Harmony. For decades we had a reputation of being the club who acted with class and did things the right way. No one is pretending that a 1-0 win over Norwich is anything to be excited about. Yet in a hard time, I was very proud to be a gooner yesterday.
