2022 The Rolling Stones UK £5 BU Coin Royal Mint Sealed Pack in stock

Description: Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones are considered by many to be one of the greatest rock bands of all time, and with good reason. With a career spanning seven decades, the iconic group has gone from strength to strength with a list of hits that includes eight UK number one singles and 13 UK number one albums, as well as countless hits internationally. Incredibly, The Rolling Stones’ story began with a chance encounter on Platform 2 of Dartford Railway Station, when Keith Richards bumped into his old schoolmate Mick Jagger. Keith was carrying a guitar, whilst Mick was carrying a selection of records. The two bonded over their mutual love of music and the rest, as they say, is history!Soon enough, the pair became close friends and along with another school friend, Dick Taylor, set about forming a band. The trio promptly acquired the services of the multitalented musician Brian Jones, who would give the band their moniker as well as helping them develop their trademark blues sound.By the close of 1962, after trialling a revolving door of musicians, the classic line-up of The Rolling Stones was assembled – Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Brian Jones, Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts – and with that, the band was ready to take the world by storm.The following year, The Rolling Stones released their first single ‘Come On’, which peaked at number 21 in the UK singles chart on 31 July 1963. Less than a year later, the band released their eponymously titled first album, which promptly awarded them their first UK number one album. The band subsequently achieved their first UK number one with ‘It’s All Over Now’ on 8 July 1964.
