In July 1978 and February 1979, Cornell collaborated with Marc Chagall[8] in France on a medal for Le Médaillier Franklin based on one of Chagall's drawings.
Among over 2000 official coins for the UK and various Commonwealth countries around the world,[9] Cornell is known for designing the portrait of Diana, Princess of Wales £5 coin issued by the Royal Mint in 1999.[10] His other works include a 50p coin commemorating the 50th anniversary of the creation of the National Health Service issued by the Royal Mint in 1998[11] and the 50p Olympic judo coin issued by the Royal Mint in celebration of the 2012 Summer Olympics.[12]
