2025 Six Decades of 007, Bond of the 1980s 1oz Silver Coin
This 2025 Bond of the 1980s 1oz silver coin is the third in the bullion coin series from The Royal Mint celebrating the world's favourite spy - the Six Decades of 007 range. Created by Ian Fleming in 1953, James Bond became a British icon when he appeared on the big screen in 1962. Since then the MI6 agent has only grown in popularity, as new actors made the character their own. This coin celebrates the bond movies of the 1980s with the sophistication of Roger Moore in films such as 'A View to a Kill' and 'Octopussy' moving over to the more gritty style of Timothy Dalton in 'The Living Daylights' and 'Licence to Kill'. The vehicle featured this time is the Bede BD-5J 'Acrostar' microjet which memorably flies through a hangar in the opening sequence of Octopussy. Each 2025 Bond of the 1980s 1oz silver coin contains one troy ounce of 999 pure silver and is struck to The Royal Mint's bullion standard. The coin has a value of £2 meaning that for UK residents it is exempt from Capital Gains Tax. The silver bullion coin has a limited mintage of 100,000.
