Jersey issues commemorative royal wedding coins

The commemorative Jersey £5 coin shows an image of the couple

A series of Jersey coins have been issued to commemorate the forthcoming royal wedding.

Prince William and Kate Middleton are tying the knot on Friday 29 April and the coins show a design of the Royal couple.

The coins are available in £5 and £10 denominations and a special gold £1 coin will be issued later this month to mark the year of the wedding.

The Treasury said the £5 coin was expected to be the most popular.

The £5 coin can be bought at face value but the full range of coins, including £5 and £10 gold and silver coins, can cost between £75 and £2,995.
