With a unique atmosphere and incredible history, the Tower of London is one of the nation’s oldest historic sites, attracting millions of visitors every year. Our coin series celebrating the iconic fortress began in 2019 and the Tower of London Collection continues this year with four new £5 coins. For the third 2020 release, we’re following on from the White Tower and Royal Menagerie to delve into our own fascinating heritage at the Tower.
Before The Royal Mint made its home in Wales, it was first established by Edward I within the Tower’s walls, where it remained for 500 years. Heraldic artist Timothy Noad captures one of the first coins that would have been struck at the Tower in the latest release of the series. Featuring the exclusive Tower of London mint mark, each coin in the 2020 Tower of London Collection is also unified by a Norman arched window design.
The collection is available at a range of price points, with an edition for every royal history enthusiast. Each coin in the collection comes with packaging created in collaboration with Historic Royal Palaces, where you can read more tales from the Tower.
