There were three versions of the coin commemorating the 100th Birthday of Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother issued in 2000: Copper-Nickel (KM#1007), Silver (KM#1007a) and Gold (KM#1007b). They are identical in size and design, although of course different in weight.
The Copper-Nickel version, of which 3,147,092 were produced, is valued at (according to the Standard Catalog of World Coins) US$15 in Uncirculated condition and US$17 in Brilliant Uncirculated condition.
The Silver version, of which 100,000 were produced, weighs 28.28 grams, is 92.5% silver, and thus has an ASW (Actual Silver Weight) of 0.8410 troy ounces. It was only produced in proof, and an example is valued at about US$55.
The Gold version, of which 3,000 were produced, weighs 39.94 grams, is 91.67% gold, and thus has an AGW (Actual Gold Weight) of 1.1771 troy ounces. It was only produced in proof, and an example is valued at about US$1350. However (with the price of gold at US$1435 per troy ounce as of March 25, 2011), the "melt value" of the coin is higher than that.
