These 2022 25th Anniversary of the £2 Silver Proof Coins celebrate 25 years of the bimetallic UK £2 coin.

This coin features the iconic 'Technology' Standing on the Shoulders of Giants design, but also incorporates a lenticular number '25' in the centre of the reverse.

The reverse was designed by English coin designer Bruce Rushin, and was used between 1997 until 2015. The obverse side of the coin features Jody Clark's fifth coinage portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth II.

Each coin is struck in 0.925 fine silver, with gold plating around the outer edge. These coins are issued by The Royal Mint and have a limited-edition presentation of 2,525.
