Designed by Gordon Summers, the Royal Mint’s Design Team Leader and Engraver, this commemorative £2 coin marked two significant milestones in 2010: the centenary of Florence Nightingale's death and the 150th anniversary of the publication of her influential work, Notes on Nursing. The reverse design, featuring a nurse's hands checking a pulse, symbolizes Nightingale’s transformative contributions to modern nursing.
