2023 British Monarchs – Charles I 2 Oz Gold Proof

Description

The British Monarchs Collection takes an in-depth look at several legendary monarchs to have graced the throne in Britain. Accompanied by a booklet detailing the life of the monarch it commemorates, each coin in the collection features a remastering of an original portrait that would have appeared on coinage during the time of each respective monarch’s reign. The sixth coin in the collection pays tribute to the second king from the House of Stuart, Charles I.

For the 2023 coin, modern techniques were used to beautifully remaster Nicholas Briot’s original design depicting Charles I on horseback, and this is the only coin in the collection to feature an equestrian portrait.
