The 2022 British Monarchs King Edward VII – Two Pounds 1oz Silver ProofThe fourth coin in the Royal Mint's British Monarchs Collection features King Edward VII, the eldest son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Edward VII was King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions and Emperor of India from 22 January 1901 until his death in 1910. Edward married Princess Alexandra of Denmark in 1863. Despite his short reign, Edward was very popular as a King.
This is the one ounce (31.21g) of 999 Fine Silver, denominated Two Pounds (£2) with a Proof finish. Limited Edition mintage is 1350, with a maximum mintage of 1360. Diameter 38.61mm.
As with the other coins in the British Monarchs Collection, there are a number of offerings from the Royal Mint. The silver coin is available in 1oz, 2oz, 5oz, 10oz; and the gold coin is also 1oz, 2oz and 5oz. They also appear in sets. The mintages were low and the Royal Mint did sell out many of the denominations.
The Reverse shows the original bare-head portrait of King Edward VII as it would have appeared on many of his coins minted between 1901 and 1910. The design was by George William De Saulles and you can see the artists initials 'DeS' at the base of the neck.
The Edge is milled.
The Obverse shows a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Jody Clark. The coin was issued after the Queen's death and is one of the last coins to feature Her Majesty's image.Image credit: The Royal Mint
