Comment

Issued exclusively at the Royal Mint Experience, the coin could only be purchased in the Royal Mint shop. It is a redesign of the last round pound coin and unusually struck as a base proof strike.

This £5 design was re-issued with the King Charles III effigy in 2023.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that represents the four constituent countries of the United Kingdom: England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. The design, created by sculptor David Lawrence, shows the four countries' flags arranged in a circular pattern, with the flag of England at the center. This design aims to symbolize the unity and diversity of the United Kingdom and its territories.
