UK £100 Big Ben Silver Coin

For the first time, the Royal Mint has brought out a coin specifically for New Year and UK’s first £100 coin, UK £100 Big Ben Silver Coin. Only 50,000 of these 999 fine silver coins available at face value of £100.

Since those chimes first rang out across London in 1859, Big Ben has hung in the Elizabeth Tower, resolute no matter what the country faces, steadfastly marking each passing hour, ushering in new dawns, eras, decades, centuries and even millennia. To visitors, the Elizabeth Tower housing Big Ben is Britain.

The coin reverse show the magnificent Elizabeth Tower that houses the mighty Big Ben, so iconic that you can almost hear the rousing chimes that reverberate across this land and far beyond these shores, the very heartbeat of the nation. In this magnificent portrait by Royal Mint engravers Glyn Davies and Laura Clancy you’re transported to street level, gazing upwards from the ground at this architectural marvel with the wide-eyed thrill of a tourist jostling for a view. The Queen's portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley FRBS graces the coin obverse.
