Oh dear indeed.

[AaaGee]

Cant see it somehow.

The only similarity is the ear.

Ill stick to pre 2023s if it is.

Wow, can't see how that would be acceptable as the head, seeing the other new coins

Defo a bit shocking if it is a true coin. They did him dirty

That is obviously not the correct portrait. If someone is advertising Britannias with that portrait I would be very worried about what was going to turn up?

There are no initials of the designer of the portrait on the Charles silver Britannia.
The initials of the gold Charles Brit are MJ - they look very tiny. On the Lizzy Brit the initials stand proud but for Charles they aren't.
i question whether these are genuine or at least one of them isn't.

Whilst they did him proud on the proofs ( CGI lol) he won't look right on the bullion.. I've said this before.. he's going to tank Britannia sales 😂

You were spoiled by having a good-looking female monarch for way too many years... Welcome to the normal world of old/beardy/bald/big ears/big nose/whatever male monarchs the citizens of other monarchies had to put up with on their coins for centuries. Deal with it! ☺️

...at least give credit where you "borrowed" the photos from 😂 - But this is the official photo from Royal Mint slightly modified with my watermark. And no - don't buy from Royal Mint as they are cheaper elsewhere (hint hint).

This is being emailed out by Chards - this shows the proper initials under the portrait.
