Prince George's birthday is being celebrated with a very special gift
The little royal is turning five!
Prince George is turning five this Sunday, and celebrations are already under way with a very special gift...
The little royal will be celebrating his fifth birthday this weekend, which will no doubt be filled with fun activities and probably a few presents from some of his family members (but how will uncle Harry beat the christening gift he bought Prince Louis?).
As well as the celebrations the Cambridges surely have planned, the future king's special birthday is also being commemorated with a new £5 coin, that has been released by the Royal Mint.
The special piece, which features the legend of St George and the Dragon and the year 2018, comes with a special presentation pack entitled The Progress of a Prince.
You can get the commemorative piece for £13
If you want to get the piece commemorating Prince George's birthday, you can get a piece of the action by purchasing it from the Royal Mint's website for £13.
You can also get a silver proof version for £82.50, while a celebration sovereign, which will be struck on George's fifth birthday on Sunday, is priced at £500 - and there will only be 750 available!

Prince George’s cutest moments
We bet Prince George is in for a weekend of fun with mum Kate and dad William, as well as his little sister Charlotte and baby brother Prince George.
The Cambridges usually like to keep personal events like birthdays private, so it's likely the family will be celebrating with only close family members and friends.

They might even head to the Middletons home in Berkshire, to make sure their little ones can enjoy the birthday party away from the public eye.
But even though Kate and William want to make sure their three children have a normal childhood away from the spotlight, they keep the public satisfied by sharing sweet pictures of them on special occasions - like Princess Charlotte's birthday, when they released pictures of her with her baby brother, and Prince Louis' christening.
This might be the case this weekend after they celebrate Prince George's birthday, so we might even be treated to a snap of all three children together - and we already know it will be adorable...
