In 2000 to celebrate the Millennium, the Royal Mint released a very Limited Issue £5 Five Pound Silver Proof Coin struck in solid .925 Sterling Silver.
The reverse design is a Lighthouse which stands as a symbolic representation, illuminating the historic passage of time. The obverse design is the stunning portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Raphael Maklouf. These legal tender coins have been struck to proof quality using specially prepared dies and highly polished blanks.
