HMS Warrior was a revolution in naval warfare — the world's first iron-hulled, armour-plated warship when she was launched in 1860. So powerful was she that no enemy dared engage her, and her very existence rendered every other warship on the planet obsolete overnight. Beautifully restored and moored in Portsmouth Harbour, HMS Warrior bridges the age of sail and the age of steam, standing as a testament to Victorian engineering ambition and the relentless drive to command the seas.
This gold-plated commemorative captures HMS Warrior in impressive detail. Struck to a Brilliant Uncirculated standard with a proof-like finish, this 32mm piece is plated in 24 carat gold and weighs 10.5 grams — a bold tribute to the warship that changed naval warfare forever.
