2026 Great Britain 100th Anniv. QE Birthday BU (w/ Display Card)
This legal tender five-pound coin from the United Kingdom marks a historic milestone, commemorating what would have been the one hundredth birthday of Queen Elizabeth II. Struck in cupro-nickel, this 2026 issue serves as a lasting tribute to her legacy, backed by the British government. The obverse of the coin presents a specially created commemorative portrait by Timothy Noad. Encircling this central image is a border composed of exactly 100 beads, representing each year since the late monarch's birth. The design is further elevated by the Latin inscription "Exaltabitur in gloria," alongside the 2026 year of issue and the face value. In a fascinating juxtaposition of eras, the reverse side features the official effigy of His Majesty King Charles III. This side also displays the denomination and the year, making the coin a compelling study in royal transition and modern British numismatic artistry.
