2022 United Kingdom Gold Proof Annual Coin Set
Limited edition of 100 sets.
This gold coin set features five commemorative coins, each struck from 22 carat (0.9167 fine) gold.
These British coins include two designs celebrating the Queen's Platinum Jubilee - a 50p and a £5 coin. This is the first time that a 50p has been struck for a royal event. The £5 design is similar to that on the half crown of William IV and has spiked a lot of interest. Old designs reproduced have been popular in recent years.
The other coins are the Alexander Graham Bell £2, Dame Vera Lynn £2 and the Birmingham Commonwealth Games 50p.
"Proof" coins are specially struck with great care and attention. The dies are highly polished on the flat surfaces, with a frosted finish on the design, the blanks from which the coins are struck are also polished before striking (minting), so that the finished coins show their designs to the absolutely best effect. The raised relief parts of the design have a frosted finish, and stand out from the background (field) which has a mirror finish. Each coin is carefully inspected prior to packaging, and is guaranteed to be perfect and without any blemish.
The obverse features the definitive fifth portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth by Jody Clark.
Platinum Jubilee £5 - Shield design, crowned. This is similar to that used for William IV with the date 1952 -2022 at the base of the shield.
Platinum Jubilee 50p - Modern oversized '70' showing Royal cypher neatly within the number '0,' by design agency Osbourne Ross.
Alexander Graham Bell £2 showing the numbers 0-9 appearing as they are buttons to be used on a telephone with two buttons showing his birth year 1847 and the year of his death 1922. Design by Henry Gray.
Dame Vera Lynn £2 showing her portrait by the mints product design team .
