2018 Great Britain 5 Pound Gold Royal Wedding NGC PF70UCAM One of First 50 Struck
An Adorable Royal Wedding Gold Proof That’s Sure to Melt Your Heart
When His Royal Highness Prince Henry of Wales and Ms. Meghan Markle are married on May 19, 2018, it will be only the third Royal Wedding ever televised live around the world. The beautiful ceremony at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle will take on a fairy tale appearance as the couple’s romance takes center stage in a news cycle often awash with depressing and somber stories.
To celebrate this most festive occasion, the British Royal Mint is releasing a series of official silver and gold coins that commemorate Harry and Meghan’s Royal Wedding. The proof versions of these coins are simply stunning. They depict the happy couple gazing into each other’s eyes, Meghan’s hand tenderly wrapped around Harry’s arm. In this design, Queen Elizabeth II finally got her way. That’s because Harry is shown somewhat clean shaven. As most people know, Harry sports a beard these days. The Queen abhors facial hair and actually ordered her grandson to shave it off. In a notable act of defiance, Harry kept the beard. But on coinage of the realm, the sovereign gets her way – as you can plainly see on this £5 Gold Royal Wedding Proof where only a hint of his famous stubble can be seen!
Prince Harry has been in the spotlight throughout his entire life – that’s no surprise being that he is a member of the British Royal Family. The son of Charles, Prince of Wales and the late Diana, Princess of Wales, Harry’s triumphs, personal tragedies and blunders have been splashed across tabloid covers since before he even reached adulthood. Through it all he has maintained a happy-go-lucky attitude that makes him the royal most people say they would want to get a beer with. But while people are initially attracted to his royally good looks and his bad-boy persona, there are also other things that make him popular not just in Great Britain but around the world. Things like his dedication to helping others, his incredible love for kids, and his two tours of active combat duty fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan have endeared him to his countrymen and Royal watchers everywhere.
What would it take to win the heart of the world’s most eligible bachelor? Evidently all it took was a blind date. Introduced by a mutual friend, Prince Harry and American Actress Meghan Markle instantly felt a connection and despite an ocean between them, love blossomed. The former “Suits” actress has made all the right steps and hit all the right notes in her relationship with Harry and has won over the British public with her grace, beauty and sincerity. The adorable pair is perhaps the most well-known couple in the world and their wedding on May 19, 2018 is THE Royal event of the year. The dress, the cake, the flowers, the guest lists, and the parties – It’s a fashionista’s dream come true!
