These coins, as the name suggests, are issued to commemorate special occasions of national importance that are usually, but not exclusively, Royal in theme. They are intended to be souvenirs, rather than ordinary circulation coins, and are therefore rarely found in everyday circulation.
Traditionally, crowns had a face value of 25p (or 5 shillings prior to decimalisation in February 1971). In 1990, the face value was increased to £5 to give the coin a value consistent with its weight and size - in relation to those of the then current range of coins.
Each crown issue is authorised by Royal Proclamation in accordance with the requirements laid down by the Coinage Act 1971. This means that, just like other coins in general circulation, a crown has legal tender status.
