Britannia & King Charles III Design (2026)
Obverse: Features Martin Jennings’ official effigy of King Charles III facing left, accompanied by the inscription “· CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 50 PENCE · 2026.” This design continues Britain’s centuries-old tradition of royal coinage portraits, marking a new chapter under His Majesty’s reign.
Reverse: Depicts Philip Nathan’s enduring image of Britannia — the female personification of British strength and maritime heritage — standing confidently with trident and Union Jack shield. The Royal Mint enhances each coin with modern security features, including:
-
Latent image shifting between padlock and trident
-
Surface animation mimicking rolling waves
-
Micro-text “DECUS ET TUTAMEN” along the rim
-
Intricate tincture lines on Britannia’s shield
These elements combine to protect against counterfeiting while preserving the coin’s aesthetic elegance.
