How many 2024 Robin Hood £5 coins were made?
The Royal Mint has not published a struck or sold figure for the cupro-nickel coin. Its commemorative sales pages stop at coins dated 2023, and the Brilliant Uncirculated product page gives no issue limit. The 2oz silver proof £5 has a maximum coin mintage of 510, which is a limit, not a sales count.
Who designed the Robin Hood £5 coin?
Jody Clark designed the reverse, which shows Robin Hood perched in a tree, holding his bow and poised to fire. Clark's portrait of Queen Elizabeth II was used on £5 crowns from 2015 to 2022. The portrait of King Charles III on the obverse is by Martin Jennings.
Is the Robin Hood £5 legal tender?
Yes. The proclamation of 14 June 2023 makes the cupro-nickel coin legal tender for any amount in the United Kingdom. The Royal Mint describes crowns as souvenirs and says banks are not required to accept them, so it is rarely spent.
What are the other coins in the Robin Hood series?
The Royal Mint planned three coins on Robin Hood and his companions within its Myths and Legends series. Robin Hood came first, followed in 2024 by Maid Marian and Little John, both also designed by Jody Clark according to the Mint's £5 design list.
How do I identify the 2024 5 Pounds - Charles III Robin Hood?
Check the weight 28.28g and diameter 38.61mm and the metal (copper-nickel) against the specification table on this page. The reverse design is described above.
History and design
The Robin Hood £5 is the fourth commemorative coin in the Royal Mint's Myths and Legends series, after three Arthurian coins dated 2023: King Arthur, Merlin and Morgan le Fay. It also opened a three-coin Robin Hood set within the series, celebrating the outlaw and his companions. Change Checker reported it on 20 November 2023 as the first 2024-dated coin in the series.
The Mint's own account of the legend traces Robin Hood to ballads of the thirteenth century and to a first literary mention in The Vision of Piers Plowman in the late fourteenth century, where a drunken priest knows the rhymes of Robyn Hood better than the Lord's Prayer. It also notes the popular telling in which Robin returns from the Third Crusade to find his lands seized by the Sheriff of Nottingham.
This is a collector coin. The Royal Mint calls £5 crowns souvenirs rather than coins for everyday use, and no struck or sold figure has been published for it.
The reverse is by Jody Clark, whose portrait of Queen Elizabeth II appeared on £5 crowns from 2015 to 2022. It shows Robin Hood perched in the treetops, holding his bow and poised to fire. The Mint calls it a modern interpretation of the archer, whose skill with the bow runs through the tales, including the silver arrow he won in disguise at the Sheriff's tournament. The royal proclamation describes the reverse as a depiction of Robin Hood with the inscription ROBIN HOOD · MYTHS AND LEGENDS · and the date.
The obverse carries Martin Jennings's portrait of King Charles III with the inscription CHARLES III D G REX F D 5 POUNDS and the date 2024. The edge is milled.
Collecting notes
No recognised varieties or mint errors are documented for this coin.
The Brilliant Uncirculated coin was sold in a Royal Mint pack, and a loose example should be checked for handling marks on the figure and the foliage, which are the high points. Unlike the 2023 Arthurian coins, the 2024 Robin Hood coins are not yet covered by the Mint's sales figures.
The silver proof that shares the design is not crown size. It is a 2oz coin of 999 fine silver, 40mm across, with a maximum coin mintage of 510. The same proclamation authorised a silver £2 and a gold £100, each of 31.21g, with the same reverse.
The coin is legal tender for any amount, but the Mint notes that banks are not required to accept crowns. The other two coins in the trio are the Maid Marian £5 and the Little John £5.
