There can be no doubt that Britain boasts a long and rich history. From the Roman conquest in 43 AD and the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215… to the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century and the two World Wars of the 20th century, there are thousands of years of history to explore.

This remarkable silver coin commemoratives honours the magnificence of Britain’s cultural, political, military and scientific history – each a stunning tribute to the defining events that have shaped our nation. From Julius Caesar landing in Britain, Chaucer writing the Canterbury Tales, and the Great Fire of London to more modern events such as the beginning of the First World War, the Establishment of the NHS and the Invention of the World Wide Web, each design has been exclusively created by Danbury Mint artists to bring our nation’s stories to life.

This commemorative silver coin honours the infamous Gunpowder Plot of 1605, when Guy Fawkes and fellow conspirators attempted to blow up the House of Lords in a dramatic act of resistance against King James I and the Protestant government.
