An exclusive limited edition, notable as the VERY FIRST standard British £2 type to carry a FULL-COLOUR DESIGN, we are delighted to have secured an allocation of the Royal Mint’s Duchess of Hamilton 2026 £2 Colour Gold-plated Silver Proof Coin!
Built in Crewe in 1938 for the London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS), the Duchess of Hamilton is one of Britain’s most iconic locomotives. Designed to haul the most prestigious express trains between London and Glasgow, the Duchess of Hamilton represented a phenomenal fusion of speed and style, becoming a powerful symbol of the Golden Age of British rail.
Struck to Proof quality from sterling silver, with the outer ring plated in gold, this unique £2 type forms an eye-catching tribute to a true marvel of British engineering. Depicting the Duchess of Hamilton hurtling along the tracks, each coin is enriched with full-colour, enhancing the sense of movement in the design. Capturing her sleek streamlining and distinctive metallic Art Deco stripes perfectly, this splendid motif echoes the power and elegance that made the locomotive a star of Britain’s railways.
Complete with packaging that brings the Duchess of Hamilton’s remarkable story to life, demand for this inspiring keepsake of Britain’s rail history will be huge. In addition to those with a passion for trains – one of the world’s strongest collector fields – this unique type is sure to command the attention of any collector with an eye for quality. The demand will be intensified by the fact that this coin is the first of its kind, as the very first standard British £2 type distinguished by a full-colour design.
