UK 1990 Silver Proof Piedfort 5p
In 1990, the UK's coinage saw the introduction of the smaller 5p coin. To celebrate the new addition, The Royal Mint issued a special, limited-edition Silver Proof 5p coin, struck to the prestigious Piedfort specification.
Here's why it's a CPM Prestige recommendation...
- Piedfort coins are amongst the most collectable around - twice the weight and thickness of a regular coin, PLUS they contain double the amount of Silver.
- Struck from Sterling Silver - this coin has been crafted to a prestigious Proof finish.
- Reverse features a beautiful design of the Badge of Scotland, a thistle royally crowned - the design was the first used on a 5p coin originally issued in 1968.
- The striking of Piedfort coins is the height of craftsmanship from The Royal Mint - their edition limits are always incredibly low, making them incredibly sought after, especially in the secondary market.
A Piedfort 5p is not a specification you see every day.
This means there is a limited number available at CPM Prestige.
