Commemorate the life of the late queen with these 2022 Queen Elizabeth II Memorial Silver Proof £5 Coins. These coins have been issued by The Royal Mint to honour her incredible 70-year reign.
Designed by artist, John Bergdahl, the reverse features two portraits of Queen Elizabeth II, depicting her throughout her reign.
These 2022-dated coins are some of the first UK coins to feature King Charles III on the obverse - the first time a new monarch has appeared on the obverse of UK coins in 70 years! This new design is by British sculptor, Martin Jennings.
These silver proof £5 coins are struck from 0.925 sterling silver. Each coin contains 0.841 troy ounces of the metal. The coins are issued in presentation boxes, with a certificate of authenticity from the Royal Mint.
On the afternoon of 8th September 2022, Queen Elizabeth II passed away peacefully at Balmoral. The news broke around 6:30pm BST as messages of condolences from world leaders flooded in.
Mourners paid their respects by leaving floral tributes, Paddington Bear teddies and cards outside the Queen’s palaces and castles.
The state funeral took place at Westminster Abbey on Monday 19th September. She was laid to rest at St. George's Chapel, alongside her late husband, Prince Philip, her parents, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, and her sister, Princess Margaret.
Upon the death of his mother, the crown automatically passed to Prince Charles, who assumed the title of King Charles III. The Accession Council proclaimed him king on Saturday 10th September 2022. His coronation will be held in 2023.
The obverse features a portrait of King Charles III. This new effigy was designed by British sculptor, Martin Jennings.
As is numismatic tradition, the king is shown facing left, the opposite of Queen Elizabeth II's right-facing portrait. This portrait replaces Jody Clark's portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, which was used on coins from 2015 - 2022.
The Latin inscription reads:
• CHARLES III • D • G • REX • F • D • 5 POUNDS • 2022
The initials stand for "DEI GRATIA REGINA FIDEI DEFENSOR", meaning "BY THE GRACE OF GOD, DEFENDER OF THE FAITH".
The reverse was designed by artist, John Bergdahl. It shows two portraits of Queen Elizabeth II, depicting the late queen throughout her reign. The St. Edward's Crown, worn at her coronation, is shown at the top, with her Royal Cypher below. The text reads:
ELIZABETH REGINA 1926 - 2022
