UK 2015 £5 50th Anniversary of The Death of Sir Winston Churchill Uncirculated Coin

A half-century after the death of Winston Churchill we pay tribute with a first, to honour a man who holds an unrivalled place in history - he is the only statesman to be honoured twice on Britain’s coins. The flinty gaze, the lips that spoke such stirring words are unmistakable. On his death in 1965 Sir Winston Churchill, the man who led Britain through the Second World War and helped guide the world through the dark days of the Cold War, was honoured with a coin struck in his memory.
