Comment

One of the first coins to be issued under the reign of King Charles III, released on Monday October 3rd 2022 at 9am to commemorate the life and legacy of Queen Elizabeth II.

The coin was issued individually, and the design was struck in a variety of denominations & metals. Issue limit: 100.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique double effigy design, with both a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II and a cameo of Prince Charles on the same coin. This is a nod to the Queen's long reign and her legacy, as well as the future of the monarchy under Prince Charles' leadership.
