In a Royal Mint video interview with the Badminton coin designer Emma Kelly (click image above to view), asked why did you choose Badminton for your design?, Emma said: I choose Badminton as I knew I would enjoy drawing the shuttlecock, I then wanted to add people and the human element into the space and give those people a sense of dynamism and giving and showing people a game.
