Description

2022 Queen's Reign Gold 5 Pounds. Fountain of Honour. Queen Elizabeth II. Trial of the Pyx Test Piece. #2 of 6. Jessopp Facsimile Signature Label. Brilliant Proof (NGC).

39.94 g of .9167 Fine Gold. 38.61mm. This is a beautiful celebration of Her Majesty The Queen's dedication throughout her remarkable reign. It is remarkably the first British coin to feature The Queen's signature, which is a detail that unites the designs in the Queen's Reign series. The edge inscription DEVOTED TO YOUR SERVICE is inspired by a speech delivered by Her Majesty for her 21st birthday and the inscription on the coin's reverse reads THE BESTOWING OF HER HONOURS.

From a Collection of Historic Test Pieces from the 2023 Trial of the Pyx, Presented on Behalf of The Royal Mint.
