The UK 2025 American War of Independence Silver 1oz Coin
This year, we celebrate a significant milestone in British and American history with the launch of a remarkable UK coin commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord. More than just a collector’s item, this release embodies a pivotal moment that sparked the flame of independence and reshaped nations.
250th Anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord
Echoes from the Past
Britain’s initial colonies in America, established in the early 1600s, grew to over 20 territories by 1763. However, new taxes imposed by the British Parliament ignited a wave of resistance among the colonists, setting the stage for revolution. The skirmishes at Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775, though small in scale, were monumental, marking the start of the American Revolutionary War and leading to the creation of a new nation.
A Masterpiece in Metal
Crafted by renowned engraver Michael Gaudioso, this new coin range captures the essence of that historic day with precise detail and profound artistry. The reverse of each coin proudly bears the phrase ‘THE SHOT HEARD ROUND THE WORLD,’ immortalising the events that altered the course of history. Each piece is a tribute to the spirit of freedom and the fight for independence, available from us at The Westminster Collection in one ounce of Pure Silver, as official partners of The Royal Mint.
