2022 or 2023 UK Discovery of Tutankhamun's - Tomb The Valley of the Kings - Egypt Gold Silver and CN Coins

On the 19th July 2022, one of the two Privy Council Proclamations about new UK coins included:

DESIGN OF THE COINS

5. The design of the said five pound gold, standard silver, silver piedfort and cupro-nickel coins shall be: ‘For the obverse impression Our effigy with the inscription “· ELIZABETH II · D · G · REG · F · D · 5 POUNDS ·” and the date of the year, and for the reverse a depiction of the mask of King Tutankhamun accompanied by the inscription “DISCOVERY OF TUTANKHAMUN’S TOMB”. The coin shall have a plain edge and in incuse letters the inscription “· THE VALLEY OF THE KINGS”, save for the cupro-nickel coin which shall have a grained edge.’

There was a previous notice which mentioned the word "EGYPT", but I have no more information about it.

It sounds like there will be two completely different coin issues.
