Military History
Certain dates have shaped and altered history. We have been striking dates onto coins, marking historic moments, for more than a millennium. Discover our brand-new coins featuring designs that mark significant events in military history.
Pieces of Military History
We have been striking coins for more than 1,100 years and during that time we have made numerous coins during times of conflict.
A Mark of Respect
Every commemorative, military-themed coin we strike is made with an unparalleled level of care and craftsmanship precision in tribute to poignant events of the past.
A Naval Icon
The HMS Belfast 2025 UK coin celebrates Britain’s legendary, battle-hardened vessel and all those that served in it during its 25 years of service.
The Pride of Belfast
The iconic HMS Belfast sails onto commemorative coinage for the first time, as we celebrate the Royal Navy’s last surviving cruiser from the Second World War.
D-Day: 6 June 1944
The Royal Mint has engraved dates into precious metals for more than a millennium, striking coins that capture stories and preserve memories. Available in a range of commemorative editions, a new UK coin honours the 80th anniversary of D-Day, the largest amphibious assault in military history.
Historic Military Coins
As one of the oldest manufacturing organisations in the world, we have dated coins through much of Britain’s turbulent history.
