On May 19, history was made as His Royal Highness Prince Henry of Wales married American actress Meghan Markle. A truly beautiful coin, the 2018 $1 Royal Wedding Royal Star 1oz Silver Proof is not only totally appropriate for such an important milestone – it's also tremendously exclusive. With a mintage of just 900 coins, you'll be joining just 899 others worldwide when you gently open the luxurious presentation case for the first time.
An exclusive acquisition With Royal sentiment strong in this year of milestones for the British Monarchy, interest in Prince Harry's wedding has been widespread. Despite this, however, the mintage of the 2018 $1 Royal Wedding Royal Star 1oz Silver Proof has been restricted to a minuscule 900 coins worldwide. This is a blessing for those lucky enough to secure this prestigious release. Your new Royal Star-shaped coin is tremendously exclusive; the accompanying numbered Certificate of Authenticity is proof. The prestige of precious metal This official Niue legal tender release has been struck from one ounce of 99.9% pure silver. Lustrous and ethereal, silver is the perfect medium for the elegant, timeless design. A superb Proof strike underpins the detail in both the obverse and reverse designs, creating maximum lustre, contrast and impact. Stunning, Royal Star-shaped flan Prince Harry's wedding showcased both the history of his family and the Monarchy's more flexible, modern attitude, as he took the hand of an American actress in Markle. That's what makes the arresting 'Royal Star' shape such a perfect canvas: its blend of old traditions and a fresh approach. Both the reverse and obverse sides of the 2018 $1 Royal Wedding Royal Star 1oz Silver Proof are treated to richly symbolic designs. A strong heraldic theme is apparent on the obverse, incorporating traditional symbols for England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Upon the reverse, an excellent dual portrait of the couple is set against a full-colour backdrop inspired by the stained glass windows at St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, where the pair said 'I do'. Commemorate an historic occasion On May 19, we didn't just see a royal wedding. We also witnessed a historic and exciting deviation from tradition, signaling a new era for the Monarchy. Meghan Markle was the first American actress to marry a prince since Grace Kelly. She's also been married before. While hardly unusual or problematic in today's society, in a royal context it's a stark reminder of the romance that forced King Edward VIII into abdication in 1936. In officially welcoming Markle, the British Royal Family has proven that it is ready to evolve.
