Royal Mint British Monarchs Collection

Recommended Posts

Got an email this morning to register interest in the new British Monarchs Collection. It looks like the first coin will be Henry VII.

A little blurb from the Royal Mint: "Using historical coin designs, it will feature a range of coinage portraits for iconic monarchs from British history. Each coin bears an original coinage portrait of a monarch as it appeared during their reign, transposed from genuine historical samples using state-of-the-art technology and faithfully recreated for contemporary coinage"

It looks like these are the coins: https://www.thegazette.co.uk/notice/3922613

Sounds like a solid winner to me, does anyone know more?

Really looking forward to this collection.

I've just got into stacking (and collecting I suppose!) due to the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, and basically because I don't think she has much longer left sadly, and I think coins minted now will potentially have some premium in the future. And so a collection of Monarchs would be quite nice.

I really hope they cover a George III portrait this period is one of my favorites 🧐

The press release states the range will depict some of the most influential monarchs starting from Henry VII so I’m sure George III will feature sooner or later - if for no other reason than that he was / is the longest reigning British King.

If the notice in the gazette is the right one, then I think I'm going to be priced out on gold with the lightest coin coming in at around 62g/2 oz. 

Hope the design looks good in silver!
