2018 RAF Centenary Spitfire coin from The Royal Mint: from a limited edition presentation of just 1,000 coins. There is no doubt that the Supermarine Spitfire was at the top of the list when building this four-coin release in commemoration of the Royal Air Force. The elegance of the aircraft, powered by the now-famous Rolls Royce Merlin engine, is synonymous with decisive WW2 theatres such as the Battle of Britain. In 2018, the Spitfire was presented on the reverse of a 22-carat UK Two Pound in a design by Neil and Richard Talbot. Elizabeth II joins the agile depiction on the obverse in Jody Clark's design. This collectable British coin is struck in 14.64 grams 22-carat gold with a bimetallic appearance and a proof finish. Your pre-owned Spitfire £2 comes in the original presentation box and includes the numbered certificate of authenticity.
