This 2005 gold Proof £5 coin (aka Quintuple Sovereign, or Crown) was issued to commemorate the bi-centenary of the death of Horatio Nelson at his most famous triumph during the battle of Trafalgar.
The 2005 Proof Nelson Crown coin is a companion piece to the 2005 Battle of Trafalgar £5 gold coin.
Proof coins are struck twice to ensure greater clarity of detail compared to their bullion counterparts. The coin is 22-carat gold or 916.7 purity. It contains 36.613 of fine gold, with an additional amount of metal - usually copper - added to provide extra resilience against damage.
Please note: This coin does not come with the original box or certificate of authenticity, it is supplied as 'coin only' in a plastic capsule.
