Commemorative coins of the United Kingdom : ウィキペディア英語版 | Commemorative coins of the United Kingdom Commemorative coins have been issued by the Royal Mint in the United Kingdom since 1935. Initially they only came out to mark events of great interest, but since the turn of the millennium have been minted yearly. Until decimalisation crowns (five shilling coins) were used for this purpose as they were the highest denomination of the time, but due to inflation this rôle has been transferred to higher value coins. Crowns, £5 Coins and (until 1996) £2 Coins are non-circulating, although they are still legal tender. These denominations are only used for commemoratives. During the decimal era, crowns were converted to twenty-five pence. 50p and recent £2 Coins circulate normally and can be found in change. Usually about 5 million of each of these are the commemorative issue, the rest being of the standard design. Since 1982 all of these have also been produced as Sterling silver and 22 carat Gold proofs. Although the design of the £1 Coin changes every year, these are not considered to be commemoratives, as they do not mark an event or its anniversary. == Crowns == (詳細はSilver Jubilee of George V * 1937: Coronation of George VI * 1951: Festival of Britain * 1953: Coronation of The Queen * 1960: British Trade Fair in New York * 1965: Death of Winston Churchill, former Prime Minister Twenty-five pence (詳細はThe Queen and The Duke of Edinburgh * 1977: Silver Jubilee of Elizabeth II * 1980: Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother's 80th Birthday. * 1981: Wedding of Charles, Prince of Wales and Lady Diana Spencer
