In 2004 to celebrate the Route to Victory, Westminster in conjunction with the Royal Mint released a very special Battle of Kursk £5 Five Pound Silver Proof Coin struck in solid .925 Sterling Silver and each with a colour poppy on behalf of the Issuing country of Gibraltar.
The reverse depicts the Battle of Kursk while the obverse has 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.
