Comment
This Britannia strike was the second strike with the 2023 date and the first to be issued with King Charles III effigy.© The Royal Mint, 2023
The strike continues to feature four security features:
A latent image which changes from a padlock to Britannia’s famous trident
Surface animation bringing the background of sparkling waves to life
Micro text gives both decoration and protection – ‘an ornament and a safeguard’
Britannia’s shield bearing the Union Flag accented with tincture lines
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features an image of King Charles III, who is depicted wearing a crown and facing towards the right side of the coin. This is significant because it marks a departure from the traditional depiction of British monarchs on coins, which typically show the monarch facing towards the left. The change in direction is meant to symbolize a new era for the British monarchy under King Charles III.
