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.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique reverse design, depicting a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, created by sculptor and engraver Jody Clark. The design is surrounded by an ornate border, showcasing the Queen's cypher and the inscription "ELIZABETH II • DEI • GRA • REGINA • F • D" which means "Elizabeth II, by the grace of God, Queen, Defender of the Faith". This design is a nod to the Queen's long reign and legacy, and it's the first time that a British coin has featured a portrait of the monarch in this style.
