How much is 5 crowns worth?

Answer 1

At worst, it is worth Five Pounds.

Depending on the year, the metal it is made from, whether it is Proof or a specimen coin, and it is still in mint condition and the original packaging, it could be worth much more.

At a bank, they are only worth 25p

Answer 2

The predecimal Crown had a face value of Five Shillings. Five predecimal Crowns would be worth One Pound and Five Shillings (or 25 Shillings) in the old currency (or £1.25 GBP in the new currency).

The decimal Crown from 1972 to 1989 was the 25 Pence coin. These were intended to be a non-circulating legal tender commemorative coin. Five of these Crowns have a combined face value of £1.25 GBP.

The decimal Crown from 1990 to present is the Five Pound coin. Again, these are intended to be a non-circulating legal tender commemorative coin. Five of these Crowns have a combined face value of £25 GBP.

The name "Crown" has continued to be used for the newer coins since they are of the same weight and diameter as the predecimal Crown coins.
