Royal Mint to launch stylish coins celebrating 150 years of Liberty
Created in the Liberty Design studio, the £5 coin design combines the department store's past and present, with elements from Liberty's latest collection of fabrics appearing in the design. Liberty was founded by Arthur Lasenby Liberty in 1875 and it is known for the distinctive Tudor-style architecture of its London building and its floral and paisley prints. The brand soon became a hub for design and craftsmanship and it is celebrated for its fashion and its decoratively patterned fabrics. The Liberty commemorative coin is available as limited-edition precious metal proof finishes, brilliant uncirculated and colour versions, with prices starting at £18.50. The full collection will be available to buy on the Royal Mint website from May 12 at 9am. Coins will also be on display and available to buy within Liberty's archive exhibition shop, along with a 1.5 kilogramme silver masterwork medallion that took the Mint around three weeks to make. The Mint said the medallion will be available to purchase for a 'five figure sum'. The coins and medallion will be on display at Liberty's flagship store from May 12 to the end of July, with the medallion also being available to buy. Rebecca Morgan, director of commemorative coin at the Royal Mint, said: 'Flamboyant style, timeless designs and the finest British craftsmanship have been combined to produce a special commemorative coin to mark 150 years of Liberty. 'It has been a pleasure collaborating with Liberty to create this unique design that honours the brand's rich heritage and its bright future.' She added: 'The Liberty £5 coin also marks a special chapter in The Royal Mint's coinage history, by being the first fashion house to be celebrated on an official UK coin.' Pere Bruach, design manager from Liberty, said: 'Looking to the design house's past and present, this special edition coin is a heartfelt tribute to our iconic flagship store.'
