The Great Engravers Collection from The Royal Mint celebrates some of the most iconic coin designs in numismatic history. The collection continues with a homage to the abrasive genius of Benedetto Pistrucci, one of the most mercurial artists to have ever worked on British coinage.
The design pays tribute to the 1818 crown, a work of superlative engraving skill.
The raised edge inscription has been replicated using modern techniques. Finished to The Royal Mint’s finest Proof standard.
