Official £5 Coin marks Britain’s First Prime Minister

This impressive £5 coin was issued by Jersey in 2021 to mark the 300th anniversary of the appointment of Great Britain’s first Prime Minister – Sir Robert Walpole. 

This is the first ever coin issued to mark this important figure in British history, so is an absolute must-have for any collector with an interest in British history.

The official £5 coin features an exclusive portrait of Sir Robert Walpole, specially commissioned to mark the 300th anniversary.

It has been struck to the highly collectable Proof finish – the highest grade of finish found on collectable coins. This coin has been produced using a specially prepared die which strikes the coin several times to create a high quality frosted and mirrored finish and enhanced definition.

Strict Edition Limit - JUST 995 coins 

Only 995 coins were issued to commemorate this important historical figure – to give this some perspective, more than 18,000 UK £5 coins were issued to remember former Prime Minister Winston Churchill in 2015!
