The Goldsmiths' Company Art Director was appointed as Consultant Art Director for the Royal Mint so the Company started an Art Medal Collection. In 1973 the first major art medal exhibition, 'Medals Today', opened at Goldsmiths' Hall. Malcolm Appleby designed two as souvenirs of the exhibition - struck in bronze from his hand-engraved dies: 'Bird of Destiny', a Rook and Stork conjoined, and 'Human Butterfly', a face within a butterfly's body.

The Royal Mint struck both of these and also a Limited Edition in silver showing both obverse sides - this in numbered 39/100
