Collectability and Significance of the Piedfort £1 Coin
The Piedfort £1 Coin continues a long Royal Mint tradition of producing thicker, heavier versions of circulating coin designs for collectors. The term Piedfort, meaning “heavy weight” in French, dates back to medieval times when specially struck pieces were given as gifts to nobility or used as pattern coins.
Modern Piedforts, such as this .925 sterling silver edition, are sought after for their limited mintages and superior finish. They offer both intrinsic silver value and strong numismatic appeal.
