In 2007, to celebrate Great Britons and the Life of John Constable, the Royal Mint released on behalf of Alderney a Limited Issue John Constable £5 Five Pound Silver Proof Coin struck in solid .925 Sterling Silver.
The reverse depicts John Constable while the obverse has the stunning portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II designed by Ian Rank Broadley.
These legal tender coins have been struck to proof quality using specially prepared dies and highly polished blanks.
