Set NameThe Queen's Portrait Collection £5 Silver Proof Piedfort Four-Coin Set (2013)

This commemorative four-coin set celebrates the 60th anniversary of the Coronation (Diamond Jubilee) of Queen Elizabeth II. They trace the changes in the Queen's effigy through time; the four coins feature the same reverse and a different obverse: the Queen's First Portrait by Mary Gillick, her Second Portrait by Arnold Machin, the Third Portrait by Raphael Maklouf and the Fourth Portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley.

All coins are struck in Sterling Silver, in Proof FDC grade with a frosted finish; they are piedforts (i.e. double the thickness and weigh of regular silver proofs).
