World’s First Triple-Thickness Gold Miniature Coin

Gold miniature coins are popular worldwide, and the reason coins are struck in this size is that this practice dates back to ancient times, as even the smallest coins minted from gold were worth more than the largest coins in silver and bronze. Creating smaller coins in pure gold, which is a notoriously ‘soft’ metal, is a delicate and time consuming process. This is why the mintage of this new coin in celebration of the Queen’s milestone has been restricted to just 499 coins worldwide.
Struck to honour Queen Elizabeth II Milestone

A few months ago Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II reached another milestone of her long reign as she became the oldest reigning monarch in British history. She is now older than her two nearest rivals - her great-great grandmother Queen Victoria and King George III - and to celebrate this milestone a rather exceptional gold coin has been minted. This new coin is a world first, and with just 499 of them to be minted, we wanted you to have a priority opportunity to be among the few hundred collectors worldwide who will be fortunate enough to own one.
