Silver Five Ounces 2024 Star Wars - Death Star II, Coin from United Kingdom
CoinSilver Five Ounces 2024 Star Wars - Death Star II

Like many other mints, the Royal Mint issues bullion coins in precious metals, having much higher intrinsic value than their face value. The five ounce (5 oz) silver coins are denominated as ten pounds (£10).

The coins are legal tender but are not intended for circulation. They are targeted at bullion investors or collectors who appreciate the special editions as pieces of art. The coins are typically "one-year" types usually issued in parallel with smaller denominations with the same reverse designs.

This five-ounces silver coin denominated as £10 is part of a Royal Mint series celebrating one of the most popular movie franchises of all time - Star Wars, and the fourth and final design featuring one of the Iconic Vehicles depicted in the films; it features the Death Star II.

The obverse of the coin displays the first definitive portrait of King Charles III, which shows his bare (uncrowned) head facing left.

Below the neck truncation in tiny letters, the artist's initials MJ (for Martin Jennings).

Around, the monarch's legend followed by the face value and date of issue: CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 10 POUNDS · 2024 ·. Translated from Latin, the legend means: Charles the Third, by the Grace of God, King, Defender of the Faith.
