Tom Philips designed the one-off obverse for this 2003 UK coin, which shows a linear, right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II with an inscription around the edge that reads 'ELIZABETH II · DEI GRATIA REGINA · F · D ·'.
The reverse, also designed by Tom Philips, mirrors the bold appearance of the obverse. In the centre, the words 'GOD SAVE THE QUEEN' are surrounded by an inscription that reads 'CORONATION JUBILEE · FIVE POUNDS · 2003 ·'.
This 2003 Five Pound coin is struck in 39.94 grams of solid 22-carat gold with a fine proof finish. The frosted and mirrored areas are highly contrasted, and the piece measures precisely 38.61 millimetres from milled edge to milled edge.
The Royal Mint authorised the release of 2,750 gold proof Coronation Jubilee coins in 2003, but records show that the actual mintage amounted to 1,896 coins. This pre-owned example comes in the original Royal Mint case with a numbered certificate of authenticity.
