The first definitive coins of His Majesty King Charles III’s reign struck by The Royal Mint mark a milestone year in UK history. These definitive UK coins feature the official coinage portrait of The King plus a special coronation privy mark and embody the transition to a new reign and new Carolean era. For more than 50 years, His Majesty has campaigned on environmental issues, passionately communicating the importance of preserving the Earth’s natural resources for future generations. Featuring animals, some of which are endangered, and plants from all four nations of the United Kingdom, the reverse designs for these new definitive coins reflect The King’s passion for conservation. Personally approved by His Majesty, these contemporary designs will soon be familiar to millions of people in the UK and around the world.
