Originally finished to Proof standard, this 22 carat £5 coin was issued to celebrate the 70th wedding anniversary of Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh – a marriage that has endured through dramatic worldwide change. The coin's obverse features Etienne Millner’s combined portrait of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, with John Bergdahl’s equestrian design capturing the couple’s shared love of horses on the reverse.

Only six of the coins tested at the historic and rigorous Trial of the Pyx have been made available for purchase. These unique coins exemplify the quality and accuracy by which The Royal Mint prides itself.v
