ARCHIVE FIND: UK Countdown to London 2012 Silver Proof £5 Coin

A rare opportunity to secure an official UK London 2012 Olympic archive coin

Issued by The Royal Mint in 2010 to mark just two years until the London 2012 Olympic Games, this Silver Proof £5 coin is now completely unavailable from The Royal Mint and increasingly difficult to source in its original presentation case.

Designed by Claire Aldridge, the reverse celebrates the anticipation and excitement surrounding Britain's preparations for the Games, making it a lasting memento of one of the most memorable sporting events in modern British history.

Why you need one for your collection:

  • No longer available from The Royal Mint
  • Struck from Sterling Silver to a stunning Proof finish
  • Features the official London 2012 Olympic Countdown design
  • Presented in official Royal Mint packaging with Certificate of Authenticity
  • A highly collectable piece of Olympic memorabilia

As surviving examples continue to disappear into private collections, this may be one of the last opportunities to secure this iconic London 2012 Silver Proof issue in complete original presentation.

Secure yours today before they're gone.
