| Additional information |
The 1981 royal wedding crown was struck by Pobjoy Mint under license from the Isle of Man — one of several issuing authorities that moved quickly to capitalize on the commercial opportunity surrounding the July wedding of Charles and Diana. Pobjoy produced the piece in multiple metal variants, with the platinum proof representing the top of that hierarchy. The "2nd variety" designation distinguishes a modified die state or finish specification within the platinum issue, a distinction that matters primarily to type collectors building complete sets across all variants.
