Bailiwick of Jersey 5 pounds Politician Sir John Pym PR68 PCGS silver coin 2010

The Bailiwick of Jersey £5 silver coin issued in 2010 commemorates Sir John Pym (1584–1643), one of the most influential political figures of the English Parliament during the early 17th century. The obverse presents the elegant portrait of Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by the legend ELIZABETH II BAILIWICK OF JERSEY 2010, designed with prooflike brilliance. The reverse is dedicated to Pym: his half-length portrait in period attire with a wide collar and buttoned coat is placed at the center, while inscriptions circle the rim — REVOLUTION TO RESTORATION, JOHN PYM, and the denomination 5 POUNDS. John Pym is remembered as a leading parliamentarian during the reign of Charles I, a statesman whose speeches and actions played a decisive role in opposing absolute monarchy and shaping the principles of parliamentary democracy. His influence during the English Civil War period earned him recognition as one of the early defenders of constitutional liberties. The coin is struck in silver to proof deep cameo quality, certified PCGS PR68DCAM, attesting to its strong contrast and near-flawless preservation. A historically significant piece combining political heritage and numismatic artistry, it is an excellent choice for collectors of British history coins.
