Crafted by the renowned John Mercanti, former Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint, the 2024 Great Britain £2 1oz Silver Lion and Eagle is a powerful symbol of unity and an exceptional addition to any collection. Struck at the Royal Mint, this coin is a tribute to the lasting bond between the United States and the United Kingdom.
First-Ever Advance Releases World Coin
Certified by NGC and graded REVERSE PF 70, the Lion and Eagle series is the first world coin program to qualify for the prestigious Advance Releases designation. The Advance Releases pedigree is highly sought after due to its small population. The Advance Releases population is estimated to make up less than 10% of the total mintage for this release. With a mintage of 2,506, this coin is a rare and valuable piece worthy of any collection.
Martin Jennings Signature
Each coin features NGC's Royal Mint label hand-signed by Martin Jennings, the designer of King Charles III's effigy.
Liberty Bell Privy Mark
The coin's reverse includes a special, one-year-only Liberty Bell privy mark set against oak leaves, symbolizing the shared ideals of peace and strength. Originally cast in London and now residing in Philadelphia, PA, the Liberty Bell is a lasting symbol of freedom and unity.
Reverse Proof Finish
Struck from 2 ounces of .9999 fine silver with a reverse-proof finish, this coin exemplifies the Royal Mint's commitment to quality. The reverse proof finish enhances the design, creating a striking contrast between the frosted field and mirror-like details.
