Obverse
The obverse contains the portrait of King Charles III, created by Martin Jennings and introduced to British coinage in 2022. The design shows the King in left-profile, without a crown.
Reverse
On the reverse, Britannia is portrayed standing near the sea holding a trident in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. She is accompanied by a Union Jack shield and wears a Corinthian helmet. This design, introduced by Philip Nathan in 1987, has become one of the most recognized in modern British bullion.
History
Britannias image was refined during the 19th century to include greater realism and decorative elements. Her form displayed more lifelike anatomy and movement, with flowing hair, a Corinthian helmet, and classical robes. The waves at her feet gained detail, and her shield and trident were engraved with exceptional precision, showing Britains strength and progress in coin artistry.
