A Notorious King 

The Fifth Coin in The British Monarchs Collection

The fifth release in our regal British Monarchs Collection will feature a bold and quite unusual portrait of Henry VIII.

This is the first coin in the collection to feature the official coinage portrait of His Majesty King Charles III on the obverse.

The latest coin will be revealed and available to order from 12pm midday GMT, 30 January.

I don’t personally collect this series, but it seems to be diminishing in interest.  King George I is still available (and Edward took a few days) Henry VIII is certainly a more interesting character, but will you jump in for one without having the rest?  

For me it requires that I get up at 3 or  4 AM so the decision is easy.  I am curious to see the portrait.

Unless the Coin Connection has significantly marked up their own prices, it looks like the prices of the silver have increased by a fair bit.

1 oz silver - £135

2 oz silver - £250

It may not be the best template either. But it seems to have been good times for alcoholics. And for jealous husbands. Did they get rid of their mother in law too?

Assume this is him in later life as allegedly he was quite handsome in his younger days. Looks like he’s been over indulging🧐🤔

It looks like the RM issue prices have stayed the same after all.
