Obverse
The first-ever portrait of King Charles III is the focal point of the obverse design elements on the 2023 Proof British Silver Merlin Coins. Martin Jennings crafted this left-profile portrayal of the new monarch without a crown on his head in late 2022 and His Majesty is the first new monarch to appear on British coinage since his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, ascended the throne in 1952.
Reverse
On the reverse of the 2023 2 oz Proof Silver Merlin Coin, you’ll find depictions of Merlin, the legendary wizard from King Arthur’s court. As one of King Arthur’s trusted advisors, Merlin is one of the most prominent figures in Arthurian mythology. David Lawrence is the designer of the new Merlin design for this collection.
History
Merlin is often depicted as a wise and benevolent figure who uses his powers to help King Arthur and his knights. However, in some versions of the legend, he is also shown to be flawed and susceptible to manipulation, particularly by the sorceress Morgana Le Fay. In these stories, Merlin’s actions sometimes lead to unintended consequences or even tragedy.
