    Known to most as Big Ben, the iconic towering structure at the north end of Britain’s Houses of Parliament is actually known as the Elizabeth Tower. The structure takes its common name from the tone of the bell that rings out from the top of the tower at the top of each hour of the day. Big Ben is the first issue from an exciting new series of silver coins known as the Landmarks of Britain. The 2017 1 oz British Landmarks of Britain Big Ben Coins are currently available to you for purchase online from JM Bullion.

    • Arrives packaged inside of a protective plastic capsule, with 20 arriving in a sealed roll!

    • Limited mintage of only 50,000 coins!
    • Contains 1 Troy oz of .999 pure silver in BU condition.
    • Issued a face value of £2 (GBP) by Great Britain.
    • The obverse face of the coins includes Queen Elizabeth II’s effigy.
    • On the reverse side of the coins is the image of Big Ben in the Elizabeth Tower.
    • Landmarks of Britain designs created by Laura Clancy and Glyn Davies.

    The history of Elizabeth Tower and Big Ben is a complex one. Originally completed in 1859, the structure was originally known as Clock Tower and was designed by Charles Barry as part of a new palace after a fire destroyed the old Palace of Westminster in October 1834. During the reign of Queen Victoria I, the structure was known as St. Stephen’s Tower because MPs in British parliament originally sat at St. Stephen’s Hall.

    It wasn’t until 2012 that the building was given its recent name of Elizabeth Tower. The building was, in fact, still officially known simply as Clock Tower until a proposed name change to honor Queen Elizabeth II was passed in 2012 during the year of her diamond jubilee as the Queen of England.

    On the reverse of the 2017 1 oz British Big Ben Coin is the image of the bell tower as one stands on the ground below gazing up at the impressive structure. The tower includes a total of five bells in all, with four quarter bells that chime on the quarter hours and the largest bell, Big Ben, which rings on the hour.

    The obverse of the 2017 British Big Ben Coin features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is shown here at the age of 89 as depicted in a fifth-generation right-profile portrait designed for the Royal Mint in 2015 by Jody Clark.

    We encourage JM Bullion customers to contact us at 800-276-6508 with questions when buying silver. If you want to connect with us online instead, we’re available there using our live chat service and email address.

    Is my package insured while in transit?+

    JM Bullion fully insures all its shipments. Should anything happen while your package is in transit to you, it will be covered by our insurance policy subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 13 of our Terms and Conditions. Please read this section of the Terms and Conditions carefully.

    If we determine the package is lost or damaged, we file a claim. We reserve the right to re-ship your items or refund your money at our discretion.

    My package appears to have been damaged or tampered with. What should I do?+

    We recommend you refuse any shipment that appears to be damaged or tampered with as the shipping insurance ends once signed for and/or delivered. When refused, the package(s) will return to JM Bullion for inspection. If you have taken possession of a damaged or tampered package, please save all packaging and contact JM Bullion at1-800-276-6508 within 48 hours for further instructions. Failure to notify us of damage or tampering within 48 hours fromsignatureor delivery date may impact our ability to cover your claim.

    When will I receive my order?+

    When you will receive your order depends primarily on three factors

    1. When we receive your payment (checks and wires must be initiated/sent by you).
      • Please note that you will receive a Paid email once your payment is received.
    2. Holding period after cleared payment.
      • Depending on your payment method, we will hold the order once payment is received and cleared. The hold periods by payment method are listed in checkout and in your confirmation email. Paper checks take the longest and are held up to five business days after payment clears.
    3. Shipping method and transit time.
      • UPS 3-Day Air is the fastest and most reliable method of shipping. These are usually delivered in 1-3 business days once in transit.
      • USPS is less consistent in both transit time and tracking accuracy.
    What happens if my order is lost in transit?+

    All packages shipped by JM Bullion are covered by insurance subject to certain conditions. In the unlikely event that your order is Lost in Transit, you need to contact us immediately. Lost in Transit is defined for the USPS as tracking not having updated in 5 or more calendar days. For UPS, it is 3 calendar days. You must contact us within 7 days since last tracking for USPS and 3 days since last tracking for UPS. If you do not contact us by these timeframes, insurance will not cover the package.

    Once you contact us, we research the shipment with the carrier and begin the claim process. The claims process can take 30 or more days to resolve, and many Lost in Transit shipments end up getting delivered late. If the package is delivered, you must notify us within 24 hours.

    See also Section 13 of our Terms and Conditions.

    What happens if my order is damaged in transit?+

    Though unlikely, if your order is damaged during transit and/or any items are missing we require you to contact JM Bullion immediately so we can begin the claims process. If you have taken possession of a shipment that is damaged and/or is missing items, you have 2 days (48 hours) from the date of delivery to contact us as stated in our Terms and Conditions.

Please note, per our Terms and Conditions, once a package shows delivered, our responsibility ends. Please be available and attentive to receive the package when the courier arrives. Due to COVID 19, couriers are not always getting the signature.

    Depending on your method of payment, it is possible to have your order shipped to an address other than your billing address. If you pay with paper check, bank wire, ACH, Ethereum, Ripple, or bitcoin, you may have your order shipped wherever you please, with two exceptionsUPS locations and mail forwarding locations. If you pay with a credit/debit card, it depends on your order history.

    You may choose how your order is shipped during the checkout process. In the last section of the checkout page, 4 Shipping Method, you will see the available shipping options for your order. If your purchase is eligible for free shipping, the pre-selected option will be base shipping, which is either USPS, UPS, or FedEx at our choice. If you would like to upgrade your shipping, you may choose one of the other options for a small fee. Simply click on the circle next to the shipping method you desire, and your order will be shipped via that method.

    If my order includes an item on presale, will the in-stock items ship first?+

    Unfortunately, due to the way insurance is applied to an order, everything must ship at the same time (i.e., in-stock items must await shipment until all presale items have arrived). Your order will ship in its entirety within 24-72 hours of our receiving the presale item. An email notification will be sent when your order ships.

    Do you ship to US territories?+

    We do not ship to US territories. Due to special requirements set by the postal systems, we are unable to ship outside of U.S. states.

    All UPS 7 fedEx shipments ship with a No Will Call restriction, meaning the package cannot be picked up from a UPS or FedEx location. This is a precaution to prevent orders from being fraudulently intercepted.

    Where do you ship orders from?+

    All orders will ship from our warehouse in Las Vegas, Nevada. We mask our return address on all packages as to not give away the contents of the package.

    Do you offer UPS or FedEx shipping to Alaska and Hawaii?+

    No, we do not. The costs in shipping to these places is extremely prohibitive, so we utilize USPS on all shipments.
