The Star Wars Silver Proof Collection

In the summer of 1977, the world flocked to cinemas to watch Star Wars: A New Hope. Over 45 years and multiple films later, this legendary saga has become a mainstay of popular culture. To celebrate this beloved franchise, the Royal Mint has issued a set of four colour-enhanced 50p commemorative coins in stunning proof quality.

Each coin in the collection is decorated with vibrant colours to enhance the beloved duos depicted, from R2-D2™ & C-3PO™ and Darth Vader™ & Emperor Palpatine™ to Luke Skywalker™ & Princess Leia™ and Han Solo™ & Chewbacca™. Furthermore, each coin also contains a secret – a hidden holographic effect. When you tilt the coin, you’ll see a see a different design, from the Rebel Alliance insignia to the Death Star.

Each coin is minted in 92.5% silver and has been struck to proof quality – the highest calibre 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. To ensure the silver proof coins will be treasured for years to come, we have sonically sealed them in crystal clear casing like those used by the top coin grading companies, for easy and safe viewing.

You will also receive a specially designed wooden display chest to house the collection, yours at no additional charge. Featuring a glass-top and a silver lock and key, it’s the perfect place to store and organise your collection.
