Details

Commemorate the unparalleled reign of our beloved sovereign, Queen Elizabeth II, with this limited-edition silver proof £5 coin cover

The world was united in sorrow on 8th September 2022, as we paid our last respects to Queen Elizabeth II, the most enduring British monarch in history, who peacefully departed at the distinguished age of 96 at Balmoral Castle, Scotland. Her magnificent reign, spanning an incredible 70 years, was a testament to her steadfast dedication and service to her people. She radiated wisdom, humility, and grace, qualities that endeared her to us all. To commemorate her unparalleled legacy, a brand-new, limited-edition coin cover has rightly been issued.

At the heart of the cover is a brand-new 2023 dated coin issued to mark the first anniversary since Her Majesty’s passing. The £5 coin has been expertly struck in 925/1000 sterling silver to the very highest proof finish. Its reverse showcases a unique commemorative design, inspired by Her Majesty's official cypher used throughout her reign. Below the cypher, a beautiful arrangement of the Rose, the Thistle, the Daffodil, and the Shamrock - the UK's four floral emblems - is portrayed. The obverse presents an official new portrait of Charles III, who ascended the throne at the age of 73 following his mother's passing. This effigy, portraying the King facing left, is the exquisite work of engraver Jody Clark.

Further enhancing the cover is the inclusion of the last definitive Machin stamp issued during Queen Elizabeth II's reign. The first-class stamp was cancelled on the precise accession date – 8th September 2022 – using a specially designed handstamp, confirming the edition limit of a mere 499 covers.

The poignancy of the Queen's first anniversary since her passing and the low worldwide edition limit are compelling reasons why this cover is expected to sell out swiftly. Don't let this unique opportunity to pay tribute to Her Majesty pass you by. Act promptly before it's too late!
