LONDRA - INCORONARE REGELE CHARLES III - MONEDA COMEMORATIVA
April 12, 2023, London, United Kingdom: The Royal Mint, the official maker of UK coins unveiled a range of commemorative coins to celebrate the upcoming Coronation of King Charles III, including a 50p and £5 coin, on Thursday (13April2023).. .The commemorative coronation coin range features a crowned effigy of His Majesty The King designed by artist and sculptor Martin Jennings - the first crowned effigy of His Majesty to feature on a coin. The effigy of King Charles III for non-commemorative coins was unveiled following His Majesty’s Accession late last year and in line with tradition, The King is shown not wearing regalia. . .The new, crowned coin effigy has been created specifically for the Coronation, ahead of the historic event on 6 May and will feature on the commemorative range produced by The Royal Mint to mark the Coronation of Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla. The crowned effigy is reserved specifically for collectable, commemorative coins and will be reserved for very special collections moving forwards..The portrait features the Tudor Crown which was personally selected by His Majesty The King for the portrait. Although the Tudor crown was destroyed in the 1640s it is still used heraldically and has been used on previous crowned portraits of Kings from the 20th century. The Tudor Crown also features on His Majesty’s cypher. ...Martin Jennings comments: “Following my work on the uncrowned coin effigy of His Majesty, I am delighted to have had the opportunity to work on a crowned version for the coronation range. Each detail of the crown has to be scrupulously correct so it has taken considerable work to get it right. I'm proud to have had the opportunity to realise a design that is both dignified and celebratory for this historic occasion.â€. .The new, highly collectable 50p featuring the iconic Westminster Abbey has been designed by Royal Mint designer Nata (Credit Image: © Cover Images via ZUMA Press)
