This year marks the 250th anniversary of the birth of Britain’s greatest naval hero - Vice Admiral Lord Nelson. It is fitting that this momentous occasion be celebrated and The London Mint Office is proud to announce the release of a commemorative £5 coin.
The design features a portrait of Nelson from early in his career and behind him, on the right is depicted HMS Victory, his flagship at Trafalgar. In the foreground are flags with the dates 1758 and 2008. Although coins have been issued celebrating Nelson before, he is seldom depicted as a young officer, early in the career which was to span 35 glorious years. It is for this reason the coin is likely to attract considerable interest, not just from collectors.
