The third of 3 bullion issues in the Myths & Legends series, the others being Robin Hood and Maid Marian. Also issued in gold bullion.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique design of King Charles III, also known as "Little John," which is not commonly found on other coins. The design is based on a famous portrait of the king painted by Hans Holbein the Younger in 1536.
