1 oz Britannia Charles III Silver Coin | 2024

In your StoneX Bullion Shop, you are acquiring a truly opulently designed and minted coin featuring the likeness of the new British King Charles III!

Obverse Side

The obverse side of this reeded-edge coin showcases Britannia, the national figure of Great Britain, symbolizing British values and the embodiment of the English sea power. Since 1987, she has been the motif for gold coins minted by The Royal Mint. This coin now incorporates new anti-counterfeiting features to prevent illegal imitations.

You see Britannia, looking to the side, adorned with a helmet, shield, and sword. Upon closer inspection, you can discern wave-like formations filling the background. From the viewer's perspective, within the division of the British flag, you can identify a shield held in her right hand, completing her defensive posture. The edge inscription includes "BRITANNIA," the year "2024," the denomination "1 oz," and "999 FINE SILVER." Upon careful examination just below the ground on which Britannia stands, you can spot the name "NATHAN," identifying Philipp Nathan as the artist who created this design in 1987.

Reverse Side

The reverse side features the inaugural coin portrait of King Charles III, sculpted by Martin Jennings and personally approved by the King. You may notice that Charles, unlike his mother Queen Elizabeth II, gazes to the left. The border includes "CHARLES III," the letters "D G REX F D," and the face value of this exquisite coin, "2 POUNDS." "D G REX F D" are the initials of the British motto "Dei Gratia Rex Fidei Defensor," which translates to "By the Grace of God, Defender of the Faith."

Anti-Counterfeiting Features on the Obverse Side

To prevent imitation, The Royal Mint has incorporated several distinctive features. On the lower left side, you will notice a reeded circle. Depending on your perspective, this circle can resemble a trident or a padlock. The wave-like background and the reeding on Britannia's shield are additional measures to deter counterfeiting. Around the height of the letter "N" in the inscription "999 FINE SILVER," you will find a very finely engraved motto, "DECUS ET TUTAMEN," which translates to "An ornament and a safeguard."
