1983 - 20 PENCE: ELIZABETH II RARE BRITISH INDIA COPPER COIN - INDIA METAL: COPPER-NICKEL, WEIGHT: 5 GRAM, DM - 21.4 MM COIN DETAILS METAL: COPRO-NICKEL WEIGHT: 5.0 GRAM DIAMETER: 21.4 GRAM The original  reverse  of the coin, designed by  William Gardner, and used from 1982 to 2008, is a crowned  Tudor rose, with the numeral "20" below the rose, and  TWENTY PENCE  above the rose. To date, three different  obverses  have been used. On coins minted before the  2008 redesign, the inscription is ELIZABETH II  D.G.REG.F.D.. [4]  Coins minted after the 2008 redesign also have the year of minting on the obverse. Like all the new decimal coins introduced in 1971, until 1984 the portrait of  Queen Elizabeth II  by  Arnold Machin  appeared on the obverse, [5]  in which the Queen wears the  'Girls of Great Britain and Ireland' Tiara. Between 1985 and 1997 the portrait by  Raphael Maklouf  was used, [5]  in which the Queen wears the  George IV State Diadem. From 1998 to 2015 the portrait by  Ian Rank-Broadley  was used, [5]  again featuring the  tiara, with a signature-mark IRB below the portrait. As of June 2015, coins bearing the portrait by  Jody Clark  have been seen in circulation. In August 2005 the  Royal Mint  launched a  competition  to find new reverse designs for all circulating coins apart from the £2 coin. [6]  The winner, announced in April 2008, was  Matthew Dent, whose designs were gradually introduced into the circulating British coinage from mid-2008. [7]  The designs for the 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p and 50p coins depict sections of the  Royal Shield  that form the whole shield when placed together. The shield in its entirety is featured on the £1 coin. The 20p coin depicts the meeting point of the second and fourth quarter of the shield, showing the Lion Rampant of Scotland and the Lions Passants of England. The date no longer appears on the reverse of the coin, and has instead been added to the obverse, where the lettering has been adjusted so as to fit the date in.
