Where it came from
The 5-pound coin commemorating Pink Floyd is part of the Royal Mint's Music Legends series, which honors iconic British artists who have made significant contributions to popular culture. Issued in 2026 under the reign of King Charles III, the coin marks a continuation of the tradition of featuring cultural figures on legal tender, reflecting the band's enduring influence on global rock history since their formation in London in the 1960s.
The design of the coin centers on the iconic prism imagery from The Dark Side of the Moon, a deliberate nod to the band’s most critically acclaimed work and one of the best-selling albums of all time. The Royal Mint collaborated with the band's management to ensure the visual representation honored the legacy of the late Storm Thorgerson, whose original artwork for the group remains a seminal example of album cover design. It was received by collectors as a sophisticated tribute, balancing the solemnity of the monarch's portrait with the psychedelic aesthetic of Pink Floyd.
