The ‘Original Maker’, striking coins since 886, The Royal Mint are the world’s leading export mint for both currency and bullion. The Britannia coin, in both gold and silver, has become a much loved investment coin globally. Additionally, collector coins from the Royal Mint have sometimes increased in value by many times, and are seen as a solid investment choice.
Limited edition fine silver 1 oz memorial coin featuring the first portrait of Charles III to the obverse. This collectible £2 coin is part of a moving collection from The Royal Mint, celebrating the life and legacy of Her Majesty the Queen, who passed away at Balmoral Castle on 8 September 2022. The new range includes the first UK coins to feature the new definitive portrait of King Charles III, designed by sculptor Martin Jennings. The effigy shows King Charles facing right, following a centuries-old British coinage tradition wherein the new monarch faces the opposite direction to their predecessor. Charles’ portrait is surrounded by a legend that reads: 'CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 2 POUNDS · 2022’. The reverse of this coin features a right-facing portrait of the late Queen by prolific coinage artist John Bergdahl. In this graceful depiction, inspired by historic numismatic designs, Elizabeth II is shown wearing a pearl necklace and is surrounded by laurel branches and rose, tied with a ribbon. The legend reads ‘ELIZABETH REGINA 1926-2022’. It’s a remarkable tribute to our longest reigning monarch, the first to mark a Platinum Jubilee.
