Struck from 24 grams of sterling silver – double the weight of a standard £2 silver coin – and plated in genuine, glittering gold, this Piedfort issue from Britain’s Royal Mint marks the 350th anniversary of the Royal Observatory, Greenwich.
A working observatory and museum, commissioned by King Charles II in 1675, the Royal Observatory has played a key role in perfecting the art of navigation and accurate timekeeping. Edge-inscribed, the 28.40mm flan bears a depiction of scientific instruments and objects, including the Shepherd Gate Clock and North Star, Polaris, that have contributed to discoveries made at the Royal Observatory.
Presented in official Royal Mint packaging exploring the history of the Royal Observatory, the British legal tender issue forms a fine tribute to one of Britain’s most iconic institutions. To be enjoyed by the privileged few, the limited edition has been restricted to a mere 650 coins worldwide!
