Detailed description
The Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III - 1 Oz
This exclusive silver coin, issued by the British Royal Mint in 2023, is struck from the purest 99.9% silver, weighing 1 Oz (31.21g), in Proof quality. The commemorative coin marks a historic event in the British monarchy and celebrates the coronation of His Majesty King Charles III.
For the coin's reverse motif, John Bergdahl has created a sumptuous interpretation of the royal coat of arms with the Tudor crown associated with Charles III's royal majesty. The oval and quartered shield represents the nations of the United Kingdom. The first and fourth quadrants show three striding lions of England (more accurately leopards), dating from the reign of Richard I. In the upper right, Scotland is represented by an untamed lion, framed by a double border of lilies. The harp of Ireland is in the third field on the bottom right. The insignia of the Order of the Garter, with the motto in Old French 'HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE' ('Shame on him who thinks badly'), wraps around the shield. Heraldic overlays form an acanthus ornament from which grow the national floral symbols (the rose of England, the thistle of Scotland, the daffodil of Wales and the shamrock of Northern Ireland). At the same time, two elements referring to the new king are incorporated between the acanthus. The small circle on the left contains the royal cipher of Charles III. The circle on the right shows three interlocking C's meaning Charles the Third ascending the throne. This element refers to coins struck during the reigns of his royal namesakes, on which a single initial appeared in a similar style in the case of Charles I and two mirror-linked C's in the case of Charles II. The circumference of the coin is accompanied by a description of the ceremonial event "THE CORONATION OF KING CHARLES III 6 MAY 2023". The author's tiny initials "JB" are placed in the right part of the coin's field.
The obverse bears the first coin portrait of Charles III in a version specially designed for the series of commemorative coins on the occasion of his coronation. The portrait of the King, created by British sculptor Martin Jennigs, is accompanied by a Tudor crown. The description of the coin states "CHARLES III - D - G - REX - F - D", the face value and the year of issue "2023". The initials of the designer 'MJ' are included.
The coin comes in a deluxe gift box with a numbered certificate of authenticity and a themed booklet, limited to only 17,500 pieces worldwide!
