Six silver coins struck for the important anniversaries and events of 2014

What’s included?
The elegant £5 coin pays tribute to the life and legacy of Queen Anne, 300 years after her death. It was designed by Mark Richards FRBS, creator of the £5 crown struck for the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
A £2 coin marks the outbreak of the First World War – the first coin in a five-year series that will take us on a journey from outbreak to Armistice. It features the image of Lord Kitchener in his now iconic ‘Your country needs you!’ pose.
A second £2 coin celebrates the 500th anniversary of Trinity House, an organisation that has tirelessly served Britain’s mariners since the time of Henry VIII.
Two £1 coins complete a series begun in 2013. They bear beautiful floral emblems – the flax and shamrock for Northern Ireland and the bluebell and thistle for Scotland.
The official Glasgow 2014 50p has a dynamic design of a cyclist and athlete above the Saltire of Scotland.
Your coins are struck in sterling silver to peerless Royal Mint Proof standard and presented in a case for you to treasure and display.
A booklet that tells the behind the scenes story of how themes and designs are chosen and explains the designers’ inspiration is the final touch in this limited edition presentation.
