5 pounds – The Four Generations of Royalty

With the 65th anniversary of Her Majesty The Queen’s coronation, and an eagerly-anticipated royal wedding, 2018 is a year full of celebrations. At The Royal Mint we are always delighted to be marking such happy events with the nation, striking the official United Kingdom coins that will last for generations to come. These joyful times also surround a historic moment in royal British history, as not since the reign of Queen Victoria have four successive generations of royalty been able to come together to celebrate these important milestones.
Now, as these four generations of the Royal Family mark an increasing number of personal and public occasions, we celebrate the growing family with an official United Kingdom coin approved by the Palace. This commemorative coin is finished to Brilliant Uncirculated standard, a finer finish than the coins we use every day. It is presented in a display folder that is filled with information and images on the four generations that are celebrated on this coin.
