UK 50p & £5 BU Pack Pair: First Official Portrait of King Charles III

Back in 2022, the world stood still as the announcement came of Queen Elizabeth II's passing. 

A few weeks later, the new portrait of King Charles III was revealed that would feature on the nation's coinage.

Not only was the portrait revealed, but the King's first coin was issued to honour the life and legacy of his mother. 

All the coins sold out from The Royal Mint in a matter of hours, and the Brilliant Uncirculated editions are also no longer available to purchase. That means, this could be your very last chance to secure them - undoubtedly a pair of coins that will become incredibly sought-after in years to come. 

  • The FIRST UK coinage to feature King Charles III on the obverse, designed by renowned sculptor Martin Jennings and fully approved by His Majesty the King
  • Released to honour the life of Queen Elizabeth II, the UK’s Longest Reigning Monarch
  • The 50p reverse features the 1953 Coronation Crown design by Edgar Fuller, modelled by Cecil Thomas
  • The £5 reverse features a design by John Bergdahl and The Royal Mint, with two new portraits of Queen Elizabeth II
  • You will receive both the individual 50p and £5 bespoke BU packs
