Celebrating one of the most important archaeological discoveries of all time...
On November 4th, 1922, a set of ancient stone steps were found in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt. Three weeks later, archaeologist Howard Carter and his sponsor Lord Carnarvon made their way carefully down the steps and along a tunnel to an undisturbed doorway. What the pair had discovered was one of the greatest archaeological finds the world had ever seen, the undisturbed tomb of the mysterious Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun, housing thousands of objects – jewelry, chariots, statues, clothes – which had lain hidden for 3,000 years. In 2022, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of this defining moment in Egyptian archaeology, the Royal Mint released a new £5 coin. Presenting…The Tutankhamun Silver Proof Coin.
Designed by Royal Mint designer Lucy Clancy, the stunning design takes its inspiration from the most famous artifacts found within the tomb: the gold burial mask of Tutankhamun. In a fitting tribute to such an incredible work of art, this crown is minted in 92.5% pure silver and has been struck to proof quality – the highest caliber of strike in the coin-collecting world. Using special polished dies, the coins have been individually struck at least twice to give them an unparalleled crispness of design. They have more detail, clearer relief, and a finer, smoother surface than coins struck to normal standards.
To ensure this treasure will be protected for years to come, we have sonically sealed it in crystal clear casing like those used by the top coin grading companies. The capsule includes the Danbury Mint hologram, assuring you that the coin is protected by our “Sealed for Good” technology. What’s more, the coin is presented in a deluxe wooden display case.
