2026 Queen Elizabeth II Centenary Fine Silver Proof Five Ounce Coin

Celebrating Elizabeth II’s Centenary Year

In 2026, the nation will unite to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the birth of Queen Elizabeth II, a landmark occasion in honour of our greatest monarch. With that in mind, this key royal event has been rightly marked with the issue of a brand new Fine Silver Proof 5oz Coin, approved by Buckingham Palace as we approach her Centenary.

Our Longest-Reigning Sovereign

Born in Mayfair on 21st April 1926 as the eldest child of the Duke and Duchess of York, the life of Queen Elizabeth II changed forever in 1936 when her uncle King Edward VIII abdicated and propelled her to the first in line to the throne – a position she inherited 16 years later at the age of just 25. From 1952 until her death in 2022, the year she made history as our first sovereign to celebrate her Platinum Jubilee, Queen Elizabeth II would reign for 70 glorious years – our nation’s longest reigning, oldest ever monarch.

Struck in Five Ounces of Fine Silver

To mark the 100th anniversary of her birth in 2026, a brand new Fine Silver Proof 5oz Coin has been expertly struck in 999/1000 Fine Silver to the highest Proof finish. Issued with a mintage of just 299 coins worldwide, the coin features a newly commissioned design that is the work of leading engraver John Bergdahl (who has worked on numerous Royal Mint commissions), featuring, in the centre, the late monarch’s official E II R cypher, underneath the St Edward’s Crown. Surrounding this on either side is a beautiful arrangement comprising the UK’s four floral symbols: the Rose, the Thistle, the Shamrock, and the Daffodil. On the obverse is an official effigy of King Charles III, Her Majesty’s son and successor, by coinage artist Jody Clark.

With just 299 Fine Silver Proof 5oz Coins issued for this royal anniversary of unparalleled significance, a swift response is highly recommended. Arrives housed in a deluxe Presentation Case with a Certificate of Authenticity.
