Elizabeth II 1952 - 2022

This British £5 piece was issued 22 years ago in 2001 to honour the 100th anniversary of the death of Queen Victoria 1901/2001. It is one of the five pound pieces you almost never see. It is in Uncirculated condition and struck in cupro-nickel and the obverse has our late Queen Elizabeth II. It is interesting that it contains portraits of our two longest Monarchs and both of them were woman. A most interesting piece, but if you are going to use it for flipping we suggest you call heads!

Silver proof £5 pounds commemorative of the 100th Anniversary of the end of the Victorian era (1901 - 2001).

In 2002, Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her 50th or Golden Jubilee as our Queen. The Royal Mint issued a special commemorative £5 to honour the event. In many ways it is similar to the Coronation Crown of 1953, as the Queen is riding her horse. The obverse is the Queen with her crown and a most striking portrait it is. They are in Uncirculated condition and now, 20 years later, following the passing of our longest reigning monarch, they are one of the most sought after coins of her reign.

In 2002 the Royal Mint issued a crownsized £5.00 to honour the 50th anniversary of Elizabeth becoming Queen Elizabeth II. On one side you have the Queen on horseback and on the other you have a rather stunning portrait of the Queen in a very pensive pose. We have a small number of this handsome Silver Proof £5 complete in capsule. They are beautiful and do justice to our Monarch who has dedicated so much of her life to her country and her people. Don’t miss out, this is a handsome coin.

In 2017 the Royal Mint issued a special commemorative Sterling Silver Proof £5 to honour King Canute. King Canute, also known as Cnut was born in Denmark in 985 and won the throne of England in 1016. Scotland submitted to him in 1017. His later accession to the Danish throne in 1018 brought the crowns of England and Denmark together. He is perhaps best known for the rising of the tide story. He was the King who sat by the water, raised his hand and commanded the tide to stop. He did this to show his sycophantic courtiers how empty and worthless the power of a King is when compared to the power of God who commands heaven, earth, and sea. We believe The Royal Mint issued this £5 in Proof Sterling Silver coin with a beautiful, yet modern design, for £82.50 at the time. They no longer have it for sale on their website, so they probably have sold out. We have them in the complete package as issued by The Royal Mint, outer package, inner package, certificate, etc.

1995 £5 Millennium commemorative coin struck in Proof Sterling Silver.

In 1998 the then Prince Charles celebrated his 50th Birthday. The Royal Mint issued a special commemorative £5 piece to honour the event. They also issued a very small number in a presentation package. But this ‘bubble pack’ as it is known contained a special quality of coin. Not the usual uncirculated cupro-nickel coin but a specially struck Specimen, much better than the normal strike. We have a small quantity of the Birthday Pack and believe me this not easy to find and the quality is so high…

Now sold out at the mint and only a limited edition of only 1,000 were made. Mint issue price £190.00 our price just...

In 1990 the late Queen Mother celebrated her 90th birthday and the Royal Mint issued a special commemorative £5 piece to honour that event. They also issued a specimen example in an early type of bubble pack, not as fancy as the modern packaging, not as expensive as the modern ones either. You have a crowned cipher on the reverse with the dates 1900-1990 and H. M. the Queen on the obverse. These are still mint sealed, in a smaller package which is easier to store. We found 25 of them in one of the vault rooms and while they last, you can have one for a great price!

In 2000 the Royal Mint issued a commemorative £5 to honour the Queen Mother’s 100th birthday. It is a most unusual coin as you have a Queen on both sides. The obverse has Queen Elizabeth II and the reverse her mother Queen Elizabeth. It is very unusual and a fitting tribute to the Queen Mother, who, unfortunately, died just 2 years later. The coins on offer are the Sterling Silver Piedfort coins. That means they are twice as thick as the normal silver proofs. The mintage is just 14,850 coins all in choice Proof condition. Today the Mint charges £167.50 for a Piedfort £5 piece. We made a great buy and we are giving you the chance to share in that fantastic purchase. We're not selling them for £167.50, or even £120.00, we're selling them for JUST £99.50 while supply lasts. Yes, you can own a Sterling Silver Piedfort £5 piece for £68.00 less than the Mint is charging today!

The first £5.00 crownsized coin was struck in 1990 and it honoured the late Queen Mother on her 90th birthday, 1900-1990. You have her daughter, Queen Elizabeth II, on the obverse and the entwined letter E & E for the two Elizabeth's on the reverse. Because this was the first crownsized silver $5 coin ever issued, it is especially important. We have gleaming Sterling Silver Proof examples to offer you for your collection. The late Queen Mother was held in very high esteem because of her wartime efforts and also for the support she gave to both her husband and to her daughter. Today the Royal Mint charges between £80-£88 for a silver £5 coin, we think that our price on this first-ever £5 coin is much more interesting.

In 2019 the Royal Mint issued a special commemorative £5 piece for the 200th birthday of Queen Victoria. We have the silver proof version complete in the Official Royal Mint presentation case. You get the sterling silver proof £5, in the Royal Mint capsule with the Royal Mint outer, certificate and booklet just as issued by the Royal Mint. The £5 shows some of the inventions that came to fruition during Victoria’s reign, including telephone, Penny Farthing, steam ship and locomotive. It is both handsome and informative. It is just as the Mint sold it for £82.50. But Britain’s Coin Shop will offer it to you for £20.00 less than the Original maker charges…

The Queen and Prince Philip married in 1947 and enjoyed 74 years of marriage together until Philip's death in 2021. The Queen's portrait features on all of the coinage issued during her reign but Prince Philip has only been on few. The first coin that featured Prince Philip was the 25 Pence piece or Crown issued in 1972 for the Wedding Anniversary, there was no portrait but just two initials ‘E & P’ under a crown. In 1997 the Royal Mint issued a commemorative £5 piece for the Golden Wedding of the Queen and Prince Philip and this time his portrait did appear on the coin. You have the Queen wearing her crown and Prince Philip standing beside her. The other side has their two coats of arms under a crown with an anchor below. The first coin to show two conjoined busts was in the reign of William & Mary in 1689. These coins are struck in Sterling Silver in Proof condition. Supplies are limited and it is a great way to honour both the Queen and Prince Philip together on one coin.

Unfortunately, the Silver Piedfort Proof 70 Ultra Cameo examples of this coin are no longer available. But Steve found a few examples of this £5 Silver Piedfort issued in 2019 struck to honour the 200th anniversary of the birth of Queen Victoria in Proof 69 Ultra Cameo recently. These coins feature the usual portrait of H. M. Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse. The reverse, in this case, is perhaps more interesting. It shows the portrait of Queen Victoria as used on her Young Head coinage. A steam train, telephone, steamship, and a Penny Farthing bicycle. All things that were invented in her reign. This crownsized £5 comes in Sterling Silver Piedfort or double the normal thickness. A company in America bought the first coins struck by the Royal Mint and then had them slabbed. These Proof 69 Ultra Cameo, were slabbed not only for the grade but also for the fact that they were one of the first 250 coins struck.

In 2000 the Queen Mother celebrated her 100th birthday and the Royal Mint issued a special commemorative crownsized £5 piece to honour this most important event. You have the Queen Mother on one side and her daughter The Queen on the other, be sure you call heads with this coin. We understand that they only struck 14,850 of these Sterling Silver Piedfort, after all, they are double the normal thickness of a Crown and thus quite huge. Each coin comes in the original Royal Mint packaging with the certificate, capsule and outer presentation case. The last time we offered these we quickly sold out, so if you want one for your collection, we suggest that you get in quickly!

1996 commemorative £5 issued for Queen Elizabeth II's 70th Birthday. Uncirculated, struck in cupro-nickel and now in strong demand.

In 1998 the Royal Mint honoured Prince Charles’s 50th birthday with a rather handsome £5 piece. It has Prince Charles on one side and his Mother – Elizabeth II on the other side. For some reason this coin has a very low mintage, perhaps it was the economy at the time. But for whatever reason the mintage was low and it is not easy to get. You have the dates 1948-1998 with the Prince of Wales and his Mother. They are struck in cupro-nickel and the face value is £5.00. Get them while you can, a coin missing from many collections of £5 pieces, don’t let your collection be incomplete.

Last year (2018) Prince Charles celebrated his 70th birthday. The Royal Mint issued a special commemorative £5 piece to honour the event. You have Prince Charles on one side and his Mother H. M.

As many of you know, the coins issued in the bubble packs are actually much better quality than the circulation issues. We call them Specimens to denote their much better quality.

Cupro-nickel £5 commemorative issued in 1993. Uncirculated

In 2019 The Royal Mint allowed British Gold Sovereigns to be struck in India, with an ‘I’ mint mark. The last Monarch to allow this was King George V in 1918. The Mint has packaged them with a certificate calling them Bullion but they are certainly Specimens that look much like proofs. They are housed in nice official display cases. The coin is sealed in a card which is also its guarantee from the Royal Mint that it is genuine and of the same standard as a British Sovereign. It is the first time that we have seen them in the Royal Mint package, the coins were made in India. You have a current gold coin with the Queen’s portrait with the Indian mint mark. We have never seen them like this before. We bought all that the dealer had for sale, it was a good price, so you have a good price, that way everyone is happy.

The British Gold Sovereign was first issued under King George III as a replacement for the Guinea series. Each coin weighs just under 8 grams and is struck in 22ct Gold. Here we are offering the Jody Clark Sovereign Sovereign by type rather than by date.
