Description

One Thousand Pounds 2020 (Pop Group) Queen - Rock Royalty, One Kilo of .999 Gold, and 100mm diameter, this imposing and impressive coin features an innovative reverse design, including an arrangement of each of the instruments played by each band member, the design fittingly reflecting the grandiose nature of some of their greatest songs. The design personally approved by band members Brian May and Roger Taylor, FDC in the impressive box of issue with certificate number 6 accompanied by an informative 16-page booklet. Currently unlisted by the Standard Catalogue, only 6 examples have been issued of this iconic coin, which will certainly become a sought after piece. We note all the smaller denomination Queen-related coins issued are already completely sold out by the Royal Mint. A must for both the collector of large gold issues, and the discerning Queen fan alike. A mintage of just six is the lowest we can recall seeing in the Royal Mint modern series, in addition the Rock Band Queen have sold over 300 million records which surely makes this lot a blue chip investment grade item.
