There were 4,000 entries to the public competition to find the new designs.
Matthew Dent, 26, from Bangor, Gwynedd, won the competition. He will have his work stamped on the side of millions of coins.
The royal coat of arms featured in Matthew's designs are a symbol of the reigning monarch.
Mr Dent said: "For designs of mine to appear on a medium as significant and prestigious as the United Kingdom's coinage and to be produced and circulated in millions is a tremendous honour."
