2025 1 oz British Silver The British Lion Coin (BU)
Better Business Bureau
Product Description
British heraldry adopted the lion as a royal and national emblem during the 12th century, driven by the Plantagenet monarchy and broader heraldic customs developing during the Crusades. In 2025, The Royal Mint launches a new bullion coin series featuring this powerful icon. BGASC is pleased to offer the 2025 1 oz British Silver The British Lion Coin as part of this first release.
Highlights:
- Arrives in a protective plastic flip, a tube of 25 coins, or a Monster Box of 500 coins!
- 1st issue of the British Silver Lion!
- Limited mintage of only 50,000 coins!
- Contains 1 Troy oz of .999 pure silver in BU condition.
- Bears a face value of 2 Pound sterling (GBP) backed by the government of Britain.
- His Majesty King Charles III on the obverse.
- A mighty British lion sits in left-profile relief supporting a shield.
- New Union Flag surface animation in the reverse background.
Each 2025 1 oz British Silver The British Lion Coin comes in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. Single coins ship in plastic flips, while multiples come in tubes of 25 or Monster Boxes of 500. The reverse side features a newly added surface animation showing the Union Flag, offering an extra layer of security and design.
Obverse
The obverse side features a portrait of His Majesty King Charles III. This design by Martin Jennings first appeared in 2022 and shows the King in left-profile relief without a crown. It is the first portrait of Charles III to be used on British coinage.
Reverse
On the reverse of the coin, the British lion is shown sitting in a left-facing pose. Its mouth is open in a roar, and one paw is placed firmly on a shield. David Lawrence created this design, and behind the lion, youll notice the Union Flag displayed in a new animated surface pattern.
History
King Richard I, also known as Richard the Lionheart, is often credited with establishing the three lions passant design during his reign from 1189 to 1199. But even before him, King Henry I (11001135) was known as the Lion of Justice and may have kept lions in a royal menagerie in Oxfordshire, showing the animal’s deep historical ties to British royalty.
