This 2023 Coronation Britannia features the crowned coinage portrait of His Majesty The King to honor and celebrate the coronation of His Majesty King Charles III on May 6, 2023. This coin has a limited mintage of 200,000 coins worldwide. In commemoration of the coronation of His Majesty King Charles III, The Royal Mint has released a coronation coin collection. Commemorating His Majesty The King's historic coronation, the collection features three new reverse designs, which are available across a range of commemorative coins, struck in a number of editions and sizes. The reverse of this special 2023 1oz Coronation Britannia illustrates the inspirational artwork by Philip Nathan that depicts the internationally recognized Britannia figure standing firm against a powerful wind. Her visage has symbolized Britain's strength and integrity on coinage since Roman times. The reverse includes a latent image, surface animation, tincture lines and micro text for added security. This 1oz silver coin features the first crowned coinage portrait of His Majesty The King, created by British sculptor Martin Jennings, graces the obverse of each coin in the Coronation Bullion Coin Range and has received the monarch's personal approval.
