JUST 1,500 WORLDWIDE: The UK 2026 QE II Birth Centenary Silver Proof Piedfort

** JUST 1,500 WORLDWIDE ***

Reserved for the most important commemorations, Piedfort coins are among the most sought-after issues in British numismatics. Struck at double the thickness and weight of a standard Proof coin, they require greater pressure during striking, enhancing the sculpted depth and detail of the design.

For 2026, The Royal Mint marks 100 years since the birth of Queen Elizabeth II with this prestigious Silver Piedfort £5. Struck in Sterling Silver to the highest Proof standard, it has a strictly limited edition limit of just 1,500 coins worldwide.

The reverse design by heraldic artist Timothy Noad is inspired by the intricate ironwork of St George’s Chapel, Windsor, featuring the royal cipher EIIR beneath St Edward’s Crown, surrounded by ornate flourishes and the inscription “QUEEN ELIZABETH II EXALTATUR IN GLORIA”.

Key features:

  • Commemorates 100 years since the birth of Queen Elizabeth II
  • Features a reverse design by heraldic artist Timothy Noad
  • Struck in Sterling Silver to the highest Proof standard
  • Double-thickness Piedfort edition for enhanced detail
