James Bond: A Brief Introduction

Ian Flemming first introduced James Bond in 1953, featuring him in 12 novels and two collections of short stories. Following Ian Flemming’s death in 1964, eight other authors wrote novels or stories featuring the famous deadly secret agent.

Besides gracing the pages of numerous novels, James Bond has been adapted for television, radio, comics, video games, and of course, film. Starting in 1962 with “Dr. No”, the James Bond film series has grossed over $7.040 billion in total. Consequently, it also holds the title of "longest continually running film franchise of all time". Many notable actors have portrayed James Bond. Sean Connery famously originated the movie role, followed by David Niven, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan, and currently, Daniel Craig. Another upcoming Bond film, “No Time to Die” is set to release later this year. This film will subsequently end Daniel Craig's tenure as the skilled secret spy. 

Deadly Design

The obverse of the 007 coin features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing her royal crown. 

The reverse of the coin, designed by Lucas Bowers, incorporates the iconic 007 gun logo by Joseph Caroof of United Artists. The stylized barrel of a gun, seen in the intro to James Bond films, appears around the 007 logo.
