The 2017 UK coin honouring Prince Philip that hardly anyone knew about

• A special unplanned addition to the UK’s 2017 coin range, released months after the rest of the range sold out in a day

• The lowest ever edition limit for a UK Silver Proof Piedfort £5

• Limited to just 1,250 – the standard UK Silver Proof £5 sold out its full edition limit of 3,000 in hours

• Double the thickness of the standard coin and struck in Sterling Silver to a perfect Proof finish

Why I recommend The UK 2017 Prince Philip Silver Proof Piedfort £5 Coin…

Issued by The Royal Mint to mark Prince Philip’s 70 years of service to the Crown, this Silver Proof Piedfort £5 was a special addition to the UK’s 2017 releases. The rest of the range was released in the summer and sold out in a day, but this was issued in October and hardly anyone knew about it.

Significantly, it was given an edition limit of just 1,250. There had never been a UK Silver Proof Piedfort £5 with an edition limit lower than that.

This is your chance to add a near-secret UK coin to your collection.
