History of the Six Decades of 007 series
Six Decades of 007 is a project by The Royal Mint celebrating the successive decades of James Bond film history — from the 1960s to the 2010s. Each coin in the series is dedicated to one decade, forming a cohesive themed collection for fans of the franchise and of pop-culture numismatics.
Six Decades of 007 organises the motifs of the 007 brand by decade and presents the characteristic elements of each era of the film saga. The Bond of the 2010's coin refers to the 2010s decade — a period of continued worldwide popularity for the franchise. For the buyer this means a product with a clear cultural background that is at the same time made from pure bullion gold.
Obverse — portrait of the monarch and face value
The obverse features the elements standard for The Royal Mint: the portrait of the reigning monarch, the issuing country, the face value of 100 British pounds and the year of issue 2026. The obverse identifies the coin as UK legal tender with guaranteed metal content.
Reverse — Bond of the 2010's motif
The reverse presents the 2010s decade motif from the Six Decades of 007 series, created by The Royal Mint design team. The composition draws on the styling of the James Bond films of that era, combining the recognisable pop-culture theme with the clear layout typical of bullion coins.
What to look out for when buying
When buying, it is worth checking the year, the decade motif and the condition of the surface and packaging. Gold at 999.9 fineness is relatively soft, so the original packaging or capsule limits the risk of scratches and minor damage to the detail.
For themed issues the market premium can be higher than for the most widely available gold bullion coins, because collector value and licensing also feed into the price. It is worth comparing the price with the current gold price to gauge the premium against the spot price.
