2020 Great Britain £5 56.56-gm Silver End of WWII 75th Anniversary Piedfort Proof NGC PF70UC w/Big Ben Label

From War to Peace, Commemorate the 75th Anniversary of the end of World War II

The world rejoiced when Nazi Germany surrendered to the Allies on May 8, 1945, bringing an end to the Second World War in Europe. Amid the euphoria, however, was the grim knowledge that a dangerous foe had not yet given up the fight. Imperial Japan was still waging a tenacious defense of its shrinking empire in the Far East, extracting a high toll on civilians and soldiers alike. After the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed by atomic bonds, Japan finally yielded, and on September 2,1945 signed the terms of surrender aboard the United States battleship USS Missouri officially ending the most destructive conflict in human history.

In 2020, to pay tribute to the 75th anniversary of the end of World War II, Great Britain’s Royal Mint struck a magnificent series of commemorative coins that evoke a poignant message with their simple-yet-effective design. The coins minimalist design features the crisscrossed words “WAR” and “PEACE” within a ring inscribed with the words “THE END OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR” and the dual dates of 1945 and 2020.

Struck in 56.56 grams of highly pure 92.5% Sterling silver, the double-thick Piedfort coins available in this offer have been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) as being in flawless Proof-70 Ultra Cameo (PF70UC) condition, a distinction that means these perfectly-graded proofs have ZERO imperfections — showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended. In addition, each will come sonically sealed in an acrylic holder with an exclusive Big Ben label and will be accompanied by its original mint packaging that consists of a beautiful display case and a Royal Mint Certificate of Authenticity.

Just 575 of these coins will be struck for worldwide release, a limit that appears to be far too small for everyone around the world who would like to own one. Don’t miss out; add one to your collection today!
