Restoration of the Monarchy Coins
| In 2010, to celebrate the 350th Anniversary of the Restoration of the Monarchy, the Royal Mint released a Special Range of Limited Issue £5 Five Pound Coins struck in Platinum Proof, Gold Proof, Piedfort Silver Proof, Silver Proof and Brilliant Uncirculated condition. The reverse design depicts a heraldic crown which is a simplified version of Charles II's Crown, and the floral design beneath it includes an English rose of the period and thistles representing Scotland. The entwined C's and lettering style are taken from the coinage of Charles II. The obverse design of all the coins features a portrait of Her Majesty The Queen by Ian Rank-Broadley FRBS. |
