A new coin, a capsule, a case, NO CoA, NO presentation box (please, check photos).
The 2006 Alderney £5 silver proof coin is a remarkable tribute to one of the most influential figures in English literature — Charles Dickens (1812–1870). Renowned for masterpieces such as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield and Great Expectations, Dickens captured the social issues and human struggles of Victorian Britain, leaving an enduring legacy in world culture.
The obverse presents the elegant effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II – ALDERNEY – 2006”. The reverse is dedicated to Dickens himself: a finely detailed portrait of the writer, his thoughtful gaze, and flowing beard symbolize his intellectual depth. A quill, engraved in a circular medallion, serves as a timeless emblem of literature, with the inscription “CHARLES DICKENS – FIVE POUNDS” encircling the design.
Struck in silver to proof quality, this coin belongs to a prestigious commemorative series honoring great minds and cultural icons. Collectors appreciate its artistic precision, historical depth, and limited mintage. A perfect acquisition for lovers of literature, British history, and world numismatics.
