Ffion, 24, is the youngest designer at the Royal Mint and previously designed the official Alice's Adventures in Wonderland coin which shows Alice and the Cheshire Cat.
The coin also has the words Through the Looking Glass inscribed on it and is available in different colours, including gold and silver.
For her design to be chosen, Ffion, who studied Graphic Communication at the University of South Wales, had to have her work approved by the Chancellor and Her Majesty the Queen.
Ffion said: "As a designer at the Royal Mint, it is the ultimate achievement, and this project was particularly exciting for me as I grew up with these stories - they evoke fantastic childhood memories for me and so many others - and I’ve loved every minute.”
The coin is available to buy from The Royal Mint.
