Obverse of 2013 Silver Proof Crown Certificate

In 2013, The Royal Mint issued a £5 crown to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. Commemorative Crowns are issued almost every year, and only the most special events receive this honour.

The Event

After last years Diamond Jubilee celebrations, the anniversary of the Coronation was quite low key. Members of the Royal Family attended a service at Westminster Abbey, where the Queen had been crowned 60 years previously.

Obverse

The obverse reverts back to the fourth portrait of the Queen designed by Ian Rank-Broadley, and introduced in 1998.
ELIZABETH II D G REGINA FID DEF

Reverse

The reverse features the Imperial State Crown, with the inscription:
TO REIGN AND SERVE A VOW MADE GOOD

Specifications

* With extortionate issue prices we won't be stocking these coins as we do not believe it represents value for money.

Value

We think the silver proof piedforts, gold plated silver proof and platinum piedfort too expensive to make them a worthwhile purchase. If, however, you would like to purchase quantities of these coins, i.e. 10 or more please contact us as we may still be able to source them at considerable discount compared to the Royal Mint.

Wanted

We play an active part in the secondary market for many platinum, gold and silver products, including commemorative crowns so we would be more than happy to purchase a 2013 (or any other date) crown from you. This obviously means that we may at some point have one for sale, so if you would like to telephone us and place an order we would hope to fulfil it with time.

Gold £5 Crowns

For current pricing on the gold proof versions of any of the Five Pound Crowns, from 1990 onwards, please use the £5 Gold Coins pages of our "Tax Free Gold" website.

British Platinum Piedfort Crowns

Starting in 2004, the Royal Mint has issued platinum piedfort proof crowns. These are naturally very expensive. We can usually supply them new to order if required, but we prefer to source lower priced ones from the secondary market. Please contact us if you are interested.
