Additional information

Pattern pieces were struck by the Royal Mint in advance of the 1977 Silver Jubilee crown to test design proposals before final approval. The Sindall pattern — attributed to sculptor Arnold Machin's studio assistant — represents one of several rejected or trial submissions that never advanced to circulation issue. Most surviving examples were retained by the Mint or distributed to officials; very few entered private hands through legitimate channels, which is why they surface almost exclusively at specialist auction rather than through general trade.
