From 1987 until 2023, Queen Elizabeth II was shown on these coins. However, some 2023 issues, like these, display King Charles III. The Queen’s reign lasted from 1952 to 2022, making Charles the longest-serving heir apparent in British history. The King, unlike his mother, is displayed in left-profile relief and has no crown in his effigy.
This 2023 1/4 oz British Gold Britannia Coin will arrive in a protective plastic slab from the NGC. These coins have been graded as Mint State 69, which indicates a coin with full, original mint luster, and a max of 2 detracting flaws. These coins are the first 500 to have King Charles III on the obverse.
King Charles III is on the obverse side of the 2023 British Gold Britannia Coin. Martin Jennings with the design showcases His Majesty in left-profile relief, without a crown.
Britannia is seen on the reverse field of the 2023 1/4 oz British Britannia Coin. Britannia is seen standing on a mound, looking to her left. Designed by Philip Nathan, Britannia is wearing a Corinthian helmet, holding a trident in one hand, and the Union Jack shield in the other.
