5 Pence - 1968 to 2021 - Price Guide
The National emblem of Scotland, a thistle royally crowned was the design on the reverse of this denomination before the Royal Arms. The first use of the thistle as a royal symbol of Scotland was on silver coins issued by James III in 1470.
After a review of the United Kingdom coinage in 1987, the Government announced its intention to issue a smaller 5p coin.
