This specimen was lot 2484 in Goldberg sale 98 (Los Angeles, June 2017), where it sold for $1,528. The catalog description[1] noted, "Great Britain. Five Pounds, 1995 (U). Elizabeth II. Reverse: St. George slaying dragon. Estimated mintage 1,000. In original case. Choice Brilliant Uncirculated."

It was accompanied by a gold sovereign and two pounds, also not intended to circulate.
