The Masterpiece Poppy Coin

To mark the £500,000 milestone, 450 very special Poppy Coins have been authorised.

The Masterpiece coin features a single Royal British Legion Poppy struck on a 5oz Fine Silver Proof Coin. But it has been struck with massive pressure and incredible skill 5 times to create an ultra-high relief.

2016 masterpiece 5oz silver poppy coin web images8 - WIN! The Masterpiece Silver 5oz 2016 Poppy CoinThe Poppy literally comes out of the coin, raised a full 1.6mm above the surface of the coin.

This is NOT a cast piece. It is a fully struck proof coin, which means it has all of the detail, mirroring and frosting that you expect from a commemorative proof coin but with the ultra-high relief of a casting.

To complete the Masterpiece Coin, the Poppy has been expertly finished in poppy red with the black central button, exactly replicating the Poppy you and I wear with pride each year.
