Wimbledon opts for platinum coins to mark Queen’s platinum jubilee, court centenary

In the year of the Queen of England’s platinum jubilee, the coins to be used in the Wimbledon ladies’ and gentlemen’s singles finals coin toss will be made of platinum for the first time in the championships’ history. This follows last month’s unveiling by the UK Royal Mint of its largest ever platinum coin to coincide with the year of Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee.
