A 2025 United Kingdom Silver Proof Coin Set issued by The Royal Mint. The collection comprises thirteen coins struck in .925 sterling silver, with the one pound and two pound denominations featuring fine gold plating to simulate a bi-metallic appearance. The set includes five commemorative issues: a five pound coin marking the 125th anniversary of the birth of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother; two two pound coins commemorating 200 years of the modern railway and 350 years of the Royal Observatory, Greenwich; and two fifty pence coins celebrating the Red Arrows and stories of the Second World War. These are accompanied by eight definitive coins featuring the new designs of British flora and fauna. Every coin features the official coinage portrait of His Majesty King Charles III by Martin Jennings on the obverse. The set is housed in the original high-gloss black wooden presentation case with a black velvet-lined interior, protective acrylic capsules, a commemorative booklet titled Capturing 1,100 Years of History, and original outer boxes. The included Certificate of Authenticity is numbered 150 from a limited edition presentation of 550 sets.
