If you're looking for a bargain, this is piece is certainly one. The Royal Mint has charged between £82.00-£88.00 for silver proof £5 pieces.

On 29 July 1981, Prince Charles (now King Charles III) was married to Lady Diana Spencer at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, and these large Sterling Silver ‘Crowns’ were issued by the Royal Mint to mark the event. They separated in 1992 and divorced in 1996 but these coins were the first official coin to carry the portrait of our new King and the Royal Mint is now charging £90 for the new ‘Crowns’ of Charles III. The crown comes in an Official Royal Mint case with a certificate and is protected in a capsule so you can view both sides without getting your fingerprints on it.

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.
