The first release in the 2020 Tower of London 4-Coin Series is the White Tower £5 coin. This Brilliant Uncirculated coin is struck from base metal and has a face value of five pounds.
This 2020 4-coin coin series is the 2nd series to be themed around The Tower of London. The first series was released in 2019.
Each of these BU coins come in a colourful presentation folder.
The White Tower was built under the reign of William the Conqueror, with production starting around 1075. The tower was designed to be a symbol of power and to intimidate enemies.
We first found out about this coin from The Privy Council. There will be a total of four coins in this series. The coins will feature a Yeoman Warder’s mace, heraldic lions, medieval penny and "MY · LIBERTIE DENIED" (an inscription from the bell tower), all set against a Roman arch window.
The Jody Clark portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This is the fifth coinage portrait to be used on UK coins.
The coin features the Chief Yeoman Warder's mace, topped with a silver model of the White Tower. This is shown against a backdrop of a Norman arched window.
The coin was designed by the artist Timothy Noad, who also designed the 2005 Sovereign.
