Commemorate the age of exploration with the 2020 Elizabeth II Captain Cook £2 Gold Proof Coin, a tribute to one of history’s most famed navigators. Crafted by The Royal Mint in 22 carat gold and struck to the highest proof standard, this remarkable coin marks the final release in an acclaimed three-year series honouring Captain James Cook’s pioneering voyages.

The effigy of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Jody Clark graces the obverse, uniting present and past in a single work of art.
