With a strictly limited mintage of just 12,500 pieces worldwide, the Freddie Mercury 2025 £5 Brilliant Uncirculated Coloured Coin is a dazzling explosion of rock 'n' roll glamour that puts Queen's frontman centre stage in breathtaking, vibrant colour. This Royal Mint masterpiece captures Freddie in his legendary yellow leather jacket from the 1986 Magic Tour, striding forward with microphone raised high – the vivid golden jacket leaping off the coin against a crisp silver backdrop, accented by swirling musical notes and holographic dagger motifs that scream pure Queen energy. A triumphant celebration of Mercury’s unmatched showmanship, this coloured edition is an absolute must-have for fans and collectors who want the ultimate piece of music history in their hands.

Struck to brilliant uncirculated standards in the base-metal alloy used for UK circulating £5 coins (copper-nickel), the reverse by Henry Designs (HGD) delivers razor-sharp detail from Freddie’s windswept hair to the flowing lines of his iconic outfit, encircled by “FREDDIE MERCURY” and holographic flourishes. The obverse features Martin Jennings’ official effigy of King Charles III with the inscription “CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 5 POUNDS · 2025”. At 38.61mm and presented in the Royal Mint’s stylish fold-out presentation card, this legal tender £5 is ready to steal the spotlight in any collection or Queen tribute display
