This exclusive two-coin set includes:

• A companion coin reinterpreting the design with modern precision
Each coin is struck in 2oz of .999 fine silver to a flawless proof standard, highlighting Simon’s exceptional craftsmanship and the Royal Mint’s ability to reproduce numismatic history with cutting-edge technology.
