In 2002 The Royal Mint produced this five pound Memorial Crown to mark the passing of the Queen's Mother. Struck in sterling silver to a proof finish, this coin comes in a presentation box with a certificate of authentication.

Edge
In further tribute to the Queen Mother and, recalling the emotive ceremony of her funeral, the words
STRENGTH DIGNITY LAUGHTER
inspired by the Archbishop of Canterbury's address, appear on the edge. They are separated by the Queen Mother's crown, a visible symbol of royalty during the funeral service.
