First released in 1986, Top Gun became a defining film of its era, combining high-speed aerial action with a story centred on ambition, rivalry, friendship and personal courage. The film introduced audiences to Maverick, a talented fighter pilot whose time at the elite Top Gun school tests both his flying ability and his character.

Forty years later, the franchise continues to hold a special place in popular culture. The story returned to the big screen with Top Gun: Maverick in 2022, bringing Maverick's journey into a new generation and further establishing the franchise's place in cinematic history.

This 1g gold rectangular coin commemorates the 40th anniversary with a design that places the instantly recognisable Top Gun branding at its centre, making it an attractive keepsake for collectors of film memorabilia and precious-metal coins alike.

Design

The reverse features the iconic Top Gun logo prominently at the centre, accompanied by the inscription ‘40 YEARS’ beneath it. A cloudy sky forms the backdrop, creating an aviation-inspired setting for the anniversary design.

The obverse features the Jody Clark effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, together with inscriptions detailing the coin's weight, fineness, monetary denomination and 2026 year-date.

Presentation

The coin is presented in a  card designed to allow it to be taken in and out. The card is enclosed within an attractively designed card sleeve, with the official Top Gun logo featured on both.
