BRITISH ROYAL MINT CELEBRATES 30 YEARS OF GIRL POWER WITH OFFICIAL SPICE GIRLS COMMEMORATIVE COIN

The Royal Mint released limited-edition £5 coins honoring the Spice Girls' breakthrough and Girl Power legacy with 15,000 coins per packaging design worldwide.

  • The Royal Mint launched an official Spice Girls five-pound coin on March 3, 2026, featuring King Charles III's portrait and starting at £18.50 online.
  • To mark the group's 30th anniversary, the Mint produced coins honouring the Spice Girls' debut single 'Wannabe' and album Spice, celebrating their 1990s fandom and 'Girl Power' legacy.
  • The design, credited to artist Ffion Gwillim and Ffion Rees, shows all five members in silhouette with autographs, and coins include brilliant uncirculated, colour, silver, and gold proofs, with a 2oz gold proof priced at 10,535. The unique packaging celebrating each Spice Girl makes this a highly collectible Music Legends release.
  • The Royal Mint praised the Spice Girls, saying `we expect huge demand` and called it `a huge honor` for the band, who said, `what a moment for girl power.`
  • Joining the Music Legends series, the release places the Spice Girls alongside Freddie Mercury, Sir Elton John, David Bowie, George Michael, Dame Shirley Bassey and Sir Paul McCartney, with five packaging designs each limited to 15,000 coins worldwide.
