2021 Royal Albert Hall Five Pound Brilliant Uncirculated Mint Pack Coin
To mark 150 years of the Royal Albert Hall, the Royal Mint issued a set of commemorative Five Pound coins. This edition is the brilliant uncirculated version struck in cupro-nickel. The famous landmark of London was opened by Queen Victoria in 1871, who named it after Prince Albert, her late husband. It was Prince's original idea that the hall be built, and in the century and a half of its existence the venue has played host to many of the world's leading musical acts, from serene ballet performances to electric rock and roll concerts. Royal Academian artist Anne Desmet was commissioned by the Royal Mint to design the coin''s reverse. She creates a bird's eye view of the hall, which is visually pleasing and intriguing. The text on the outer ring reads 'ROYAL ALBERT HALL 1871 2021'. Desmet's engraving is complemented on the obverse by Jody Clark's engraving of Queen Elizabeth II, which is the fifth definitive effigy of Her Majesty to appear on UK coinage. The coin weighs 28.28 grams and has a diameter of 38.61 millimetres. You'll receive your limited edition coin complete in the original Royal Mint coin folder, which has been specifically designed for the brilliant uncirculated version.
