Our Kensington Mint Titanic Collection pairs genuine 1912 George V coins—minted the year Titanic sailed—with the ship’s enduring story. On 10 April 1912, Titanic departed Southampton heading for New York. Four days later she struck an iceberg and sank in the early hours of 15 April, prompting landmark maritime safety reforms—mandating full lifeboat capacity, continuous radio watches and an international iceberg patrol.
